  • Ghostwrite and / or expand sections of the book based on provided outlines, notes, interviews, and primary sources.
  • Conduct supplementary historical research to support factual accuracy and narrative depth.
  • Edit and refine previously written content for clarity, consistency, tone, and historical integrity.
  • Collaborate with the author and / or editorial team to align content with the overarching structure and vision of the book.

Required Qualifications

  • Demonstrated experience writing non-fiction content, preferably on historical, cultural, or heritage-related topics.
  • Experience with ghostwriting, collaborative writing, or editorial development for long-form works.
