Hello sir,
As I perused through Freelancer today in an attempt to find work, I found many listings with which my skills do not fit. I'm sure you can relate to the low employment of those prodigious in the language arts. Therefore, when I stumbled upon your listing, I was pleasantly surprised to say the least. Please allow me to explain the many advantages I have over my colleagues. An aspiring English major, I have been fascinated in the ways of writing, from fictional fairytales to nonfiction news articles. Having written speeches and keynote scripts for various nonprofit organizations, including the popular anti-drug organization DARE, I am by no means an amateur. However, my greatest advantage when compared to the other writers of my caliper is not my fluency, but my life experience. Your advertisement asks for a ghost writer of a motivational book. In my earlier teenage years, I struggled with a severe cocaine addiction. This addiction was fueled by feelings of loneliness, desperation, low self-worth, and a general sense of constantly being overwhelmed by my life's issues. My family eventually staged an intervention, and I was admitted to an inpatient facility for 8 months. This facility was unique in a sense where it did not simply work on the skin-deep issue of addiction, but rather provided a spiritually deeper treatment, aimed at mending the roots of the problem. Instead of being focused on curing the addiction, which was a symptom, it treated the underlying causes of my drug use. Because I turned to drugs out of depression and low self-worth, I worked tirelessly on these problems until I learned how to like who I am as a person. Having emerged as a happier and better person, I have discovered my potential, and now wish to share the things which helped me with others in my situation. Due to my participation in this alternate program as opposed to a standard 12-step program, I possess the insight into these core issues that would enable me not only to relate with those going through difficulties, but also help these same people by sharing what worked for me. I have abstained for drugs for years now, having alternative ways to cope with and manage these feelings. If I were hired, I could provide you with a 200-250 page piece, to be completed in 24 weeks, for the price per week listed above. My price and time goes by what I found a novice ghostwriter's average salary and timeframe to be, and so is therefore negotiable. Please respond to my email address, which can be found in my profile, if you are interested. Nothing can substitute for experience, and any psychologist or social worker claiming to understand these issues can never have quite as full of a comprehension as one who has lived through them. Thank you for your time.
