    OUTLINE CREATION ($100) Outranking your competitors' books is impossible without a good outline. After you get your keywords, title, and subtitle right, you want to go for an excellent book outline that will guide your writer to create a book that will be educative, fun, and exceptional. GHOSTWRITING (FROM $320 PER 10,000 WORDS) With the high rise of AI writing tools, PUBLISH WITH INTEGRITY has become a serious thing, and is even one of the important slogans at originality.ai. Many authors (probably including you) are becoming increasingly concerned about the originality of ghostwritten content. Amazon also now requires full disclosure from authors about AI generated books to maintain integrity with published books. These recent issues have brought more clients to my door because I'm committed to delivering purely handcrafted content and attaching the AI report from Originality.ai with no additional costs to you. I develop self-help books with a strong attention to detail, making sure that your topic is robustly discussed and intelligently presented while making sure that readability isn't compromised as well. So yes, you'll also get a Flesch-kincaid readability report of whatever content I write for you. You're not going to regret this. Let's work together in these challenging times and keep your publishing venture flourishing through expertly-crafted books. AUTHOR BIO CREATION ($60) Get an author bio crafted that helps your readers connect with you right away, relating with your story and drive and itching to read up what you have prepared because from your author bio, you already sound like the kind of person that they want to meet! DETAILED BOOK DESCRIPTION ($60) Compelling book description with keywords that meets all the standards of Amazon and helps to put your book in the faces of your readers and get them to look inside because they just can't pass up on this one! I'm passionate about well crafted books and the whole book process is very important to me. I won't let you regret working with me. My clients are my priority, and I'll be happy to have you on board with me.

    My name is Shae. I am a diverse human and my writing follows suit. I have a bachelors in Animal Science, have spent the last 10 years as a personal trainer (NASM and Corrective Exercise Specialist Certified), and now I am currently traveling the world on a free cruise (the Navy). How does this relate to my writing? I wanted to share who I was first, that way we can make a connection which allows you to see if I am a fit for your style. I specialize in writing for TRAVEL Blogs, FITNESS & NUTRITION Articles/Blogs, and all things that have to do with MINDSET/SELF-HELP. I have experience ghostwriting for a videography and photography company LyVisuals and a health/fitness company called The Daily Dose. LyVisuals work: I have created an Ebook on a videographers guide to storytelling, written scripts for authors to create trailers for their books, and created guides on how to connect with clients. The Daily Dose: I have written an Ebook on a program for a 6 week "shred", including details on how to find motivation, how the body works, and nutrition. I have also created multiple blog posts on various topics such as meal prepping, how to increase your value as a personal trainer, and what exactly clients are looking for in a trainer. The Main Problem With Fitness Writing: Most fitness writing is created by two types of people: Fitness experts with no writing experience or writers with no fitness background. As a result, your brand suffers because the content isn’t relatable or engaging enough. This is where I am happy to help! I create high-converting content that ranks better in search results, generates more leads within your target market, and positions you as a fitness authority. I’ll take care of your fitness writing while you focus on running your business. Sound like a plan? Take a look at my work and lets create some magic together!
