Ghostwriter - Poems and Letters Collection for healing after loss & grief of a loved one

Published on the September 09, 2026 in Writing & Translation

About this project

Open

I’m looking for an experienced ghostwriter/poet to write a professional, emotionally resonant collection of poems and letters centered around grief, loss, remembrance, healing, love, and hope
The project is intended for KDP publication, so I’m looking for someone who can create original, polished, publication-ready writing that feels deeply human and relatable without becoming overly sentimental, cliché, or difficult to connect with.
What I’m Looking For
•    Clear understanding of the deliverables: You should be comfortable working from a defined concept, tone, themes, and project requirements and delivering a cohesive manuscript. Between 80-100 poems and letters (most of them letters) are expected to be delivered.
•    Strong poetry and creative-writing skills: Experience writing emotionally engaging poetry, reflective prose, or letters is highly preferred.
•    Excellent communication: I value clear, timely, and professional communication throughout the project.
•    Professional quality: The final work should be original, polished, consistent in voice, and suitable for commercial KDP publication.
•    Emotional sensitivity: The subject matter requires empathy and the ability to write about grief and loss in a comforting, authentic, and hopeful way.
•    Reader-focused writing: The goal is to create something readers experiencing loss can genuinely connect with, not simply a collection of generic inspirational poems. *The idea is to encourage them to engage memories with hope into the future rather than deep dive in their pain*.
Please Include With Your Application
•    A brief introduction and relevant writing experience
•    Examples of poetry, letters, grief/loss writing, or similar emotional writing you have created
•    Your estimated timeline and availability
•    Your proposed rate or pricing structure

*I am looking for someone who can transform pain or grief into a wholesome memory or give hope for the next chapter in life*. If you believe your writing style is a strong fit, please apply with relevant samples.
