Summary

Job Title: Bilingual Virtual Assistant Needed — Finalize Chinese Edition of Christian Memoir for Taiwan & Asian Publishing Project Overview: I am the author of Saving Hosanna: Finding a Needle on the Bottom of the Ocean, a true memoir about international adoption, faith, and a family's fifteen-year journey through a rare blood disease and an eventual reunion with our daughter's biological family in China. The story has already touched millions in China because of our search for Hosanna's sibling that went viral. The book has now been fully translated into both Simplified and Traditional Chinese. I hope to make it available across Asia in both English and Chinese. I'm looking for a detail-oriented virtual assistant to help finalize the Chinese-language edition and prepare it for publication on major e-book and print platforms for the Taiwan and Southeast Asian markets (such as Readmoo, Rakuten Kobo, Books.com.tw, HyRead, and Amazon Singapore). Scope of Work (approx. 10 hours): ~ Assist with finishing remaining front and back matter for the Chinese edition (table of contents, chapter listings, and related formatting) ~ Ensure consistent formatting throughout the manuscript for both print and e-book versions (EPUB format) ~ Help prepare and format files according to publishing requirements for the Taiwan market ~ General organizational support to bring the manuscript to publish-ready status ~ I will provide the finalized book title, back-cover blurb, and author bio. Ideal Candidate: ~ Based in Taiwan ~ Fluent in both English and Chinese (Traditional and Simplified) ~ Experienced and confident with self-publishing platforms in Taiwan and globally (Kobo, Readmoo, Books.com.tw, Amazon KDP) — print and e-book formatting ~ Detail-oriented, organized, comfortable managing a multi-step project ~ A personal connection to or comfort with Christian faith-based content would be a wonderful bonus, as this book's heart and message are deeply rooted in Christian faith Budget: $150 USD Fixed-Price Timeline: Complete by Nov 25, 2026 I'm grateful for anyone willing to bring care and attention to this project — this book represents years of our family's real story, and I want it to be presented well for Chinese-speaking readers.
