Added 2020-06-19 15:14:05 +0000 UTC

COMPANY/PUBLICATION: SCRIBE

Do you love writing and editing books? Do you really enjoy helping awesome people create their books? Are you tired of the normal freelancer bullshit, and want something more? If this sounds like you, we’ve got your perfect role. We call this role “Scribe,” but you could compare it to a “ghostwriter” or possibly even “co-writer.”

It's a dream freelance gig for high-level and experienced editors and writers. You’ll work with and learn from world-class experts, build intimate relationships, and help them record their wisdom into important books that are incredibly valuable to other people.

You’ll spend a period of four months working on each book project. You’ll really get into the topic, become a mini-expert, and create a substantial book. You’ll get paid regularly throughout the project based on the hours you spend working. When you’re done, you move on to the next project, with your money in your account quickly, guaranteed.

Location: Remote, you can work from anywhere

Type of Employment: Freelance (with possible option to move to full time)

NECESSARY SKILLS AND QUALIFICATIONS

Here is the list of skills we believe are necessary for this career.

High-level book experience: In order to be considered for this role, you'll need to have at least a decade of high-level writing and editing experience, especially experience positioning and structuring nonfiction books. At a minimum this means you've worked on a lot of good and successful books. Credentials are not required but always helpful in your application. For example, experience as a full-time editor at a publishing house, book agent, experience writing your own books, experience working on best-selling books, etc, is great to have.
Excellent writing and editing skills: This should be obvious and a given, but we'll say it: you must be a very good writer and editor.
Good people/interviewing skills: This is the big differentiator between who does and does not succeed with us: the good writers who are also really good with people tend to do well with us.
