We are seeking an experienced author or writer to support the completion of a non-fiction book centered on a historically significant location.

  • 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
  • Strong research and synthesis skills, with the ability to distill complex historical information into accessible, engaging prose
  • Preferred Qualifications

  • Published author of non-fiction books or comparable long-form works
