My parents are immigrants from India and have lead, what I believe, to be an interesting life.  For their upcoming 50th anniversary I want to present them a book about their lives so far.  To do this, you'll need to interview several people, including my parents.  So you'll need to have good interviewing skills.  I expect that this will take approximately 20 hours of work but we can discuss.  The interviews will need to be done remotely as people to be included live all over the world (mainly India and Canada though).  As milestones, I'll want the notes resulting from these interviews.
The next step will be to turn these notes into captivating stories and weave them into a cohesive story line.  You'll need to tell me how long that will take.
I'd like the book to be around 100-150 pages but we can discuss this too.
You must have some experience with biographies.  Please include that in your response.  I'd prefer a fixed budget with some variability to add more time/pages if we both agree.  We'll need to set up milestones to ensure everything is progressing as expected.
The $50 budget is obviously a placeholder and I expect to pay more than that!

Budget: $50

I write a business blog. While I'm a creative writer I'm also a flaming dyslexic and my copy often contains amusing typos and spelling errors despite my best efforts. The average post is about 600-900 words and I publish 1 new post and 1 heavily updated per week. I generally post my content 2 to 4 weeks in advance so you would be looking at about 6 posts every 3 weeks or so.  

Generally, I provide a Word document and look at the Editor/Proofreader to edit the copy tracking the changes so I can see the edits made.

The blog is produced in WordPress and on rare occasions, I may require the editor/proofreader to edit a post directly in WordPress.

This will be an ongoing contract.

Periodically I will have other small edit/proofreading tasks none of which are terribly time critical. You can see an example of the blog at wwwSteveBizBlog.com.

The copywriter needs to be able to put themselves in the shoes of the buyer.  Must be able to persuade the customer that the product or service you are writing copy for is going to benefit them.

As apart of our workflow you’ll receive: Business Overview, Goal of Campaign, Length of Campaign,  Description of Client Avatar,  Milestones/Deadlines, Review/Revision Process and
