UpworkUnited States21 days agoContractor
Project Overview:
I’m hiring a writer to create a 5,000 word eBook on, The Power of Clarity for Leadership, that is well-researched, engaging, and structured for easy reading. AI-assisted writing is acceptable only if it is fact-checked, refined, and personalized with original insights to ensure high-quality content.
Expectations
1. Writing Quality
✅ Engaging & Clear Writing: The book should be written in a conversational yet professional tone. No fluff or filler.
✅ Well-Structured & Logical Flow: Organized chapters, smooth transitions, and easy-to-follow sections.
✅ Fact-Checked & Research-Based: Any data, studies, or claims must be cited from credible sources (no AI hallucinations).
✅ No Generic AI Text: AI-generated content must be revised with examples, personal insights, and human touch.
✅ Grammar & Readability: The book should be polished, free of typos, and easy to read.
2. AI Usage Policy
✔ AI may be used for brainstorming, outlining, and drafting but must be refined with human expertise.
❌ No direct, unedited AI-generated content (I will run AI detection tools if needed).
✔ Writer must ensure the content is original and doesn’t violate copyright policies.
3. Research & Originality
✔ Real Examples & Case Studies: Where applicable, include real-world scenarios or personal stories.
✔ No Plagiarism: Content must be original (I will check with plagiarism detection tools).
✔ Citations for Data/Studies: If using statistics or research, include references.
4. Formatting & Deliverables
✔ Table of Contents with clear sections
✔ Well-structured chapters (each with an engaging intro, body, and summary)
✔ Formatted for PDF, Kindle, and EPUB (optional, but preferred)
✔ Proofread & Edited Draft (should be final quality, not a rough draft)
