Closed Paid on delivery

** This project is for "LitSvcs" ***

I am authoring a series of books on various countries around the world and need some talented writers and e-book creators to help me in this task.

You will have two choices in regards to payment:

1.) I will pay you a flat fee (your bid price) via GAF escrow and All rights to the book will remain mine (however I would be very happy to include your full name in the "acknowledgements" page), and only my name will appear as the author, meaning you get paid once and that is it.

2.) I will pay you a very small fee ($1) via GAF escrow but you will retain 20% rights to the ebook which could net you thousands of dollars over the next few years as my books sell, AND you will be named on the front cover as co-author.

The job at hand is to create an e-book, cover and all and then write the chapters I instruct you to write (I will be writing parts of it as well, along with proofing, editing and the like).

Below is a sample (not a real country) that will give you an idea of what you will be doing. The books will be quite large, but I will be writing the majority of the chapters. Below is a sample of what you would be responsible for:

------------------------ END OF SAMPLE --------------------------

As you can see, this should be a fun job for the entusiastic writer.

I will be providing a complete outline and will be right there every step of the way in regards to communication to ensure a good product.

*** PROJECT BID DETAILS ***: Please bid on the price for the full text for both books.

The e-book creation, maps, insertion of pics (the more the better!), should be figured into the bid price.

Also, please be as realistic as you can be about time frame. Do not bid 7 days and then take 27 days to finish! if it will take you 120 days, then bid 120 days ... honesty is the best policy
