Historical Romance Writer(s) Needed

I am looking for several writers to create individual Historical Romance stories or series, 8000-12000 words per installment. These MUST be in the Historical Romance genre (before 1900, but later periods can be arranged in an individual basis), but I will give you a lot of creative freedom in what exactly to write about. This MUST be 100% original work. None of your submitted work should be found anywhere else (including your own blogs or other anthologies). You'll have the option of writing series or standalone stories, but I must see plot, character development, and structure in them. Series will require a full outline and linear breakdown before moving forward. Additionally, I need to see the ability to write compelling pitches that will translate into compelling writing. Please remember, this is a ghostwriting gig and while I fully intend to pay you well for your time, your name will not appear on the book. The full ownership, royalties, and rights stay with the publisher. An NDA will be required, but it's all standard stuff to seasoned freelancers. Please also include a separate attachment giving me a rough outline your ideas for the single stories or series arc. Characters, settings, and period details should also be included. Attach any samples of your previous work, published or unpublished and any biographical info you might find relevant. I want to get a full picture of each applicant before hiring so don't be penurious. When bidding, please bid for a set of five stories 8,000-12,000 words apiece; please indicate whether it is a series or standalone set. Give a rough lump sum number with a price per word breakdown (range:$0.01 - $0.05 at the highest). Once I see the final word count per story, then you'll get the exact payment based on the per word you gave. Thank you for taking the time to read all this and I look forward to speaking with you all.
