YA Mystery Novel Ghostwriter

A contemporary, fiction‐driven mystery for a young-adult readership is sitting in outline notes on my desk, waiting to become a full-length novel with authentic teen voices, tight suspense, and a page-turning plot. The concept is clear, the major twists are mapped, yet the manuscript itself has not been written. I need the story crafted from start to finish while remaining invisible in the final credits.

Deliverables
• 1–2 page chapter-by-chapter outline for approval
• 60k–70k word first draft built on the approved outline
• Up to two revision passes focused on pacing, character depth, and age-appropriate tone

Acceptance Criteria
• Mystery elements foreshadowed logically and resolved without loose ends
• Language, themes, and references suitable for today’s YA market (14-18)
• Original work that passes plagiarism screening and retains consistent voice throughout

The project will move through milestones tied to the outline, first draft, and final polished manuscript, giving both of us clear checkpoints for feedback and adjustment. Scrivener, Google Docs, or Word are all fine—choose whichever keeps your process smooth.
