    I have heard a lot about 99 cent articles. Following is link if you are interested,

    http://www.99centarticles.com/

    Please note that I have never used their service, I have only heard some of my friends praising them. So its better to do some personal research before you opt it or any other service like it. Research is highly recommended. Best of luck

    What I would recommend after you get some suggestions, Is doing some research where you can see actual Books that were created. Read through some of the pages and see if You feel you could sell their writing. keep in mind that the best writers are the busiest writers. frequently the busiest writers will have a few jobs ahead of you. on the other hand, there are many writers who are ready to help you, but im a lack experience or lack quality references.

    There are a couple of folks on the warriors-for-hire thread who have great recommendations. You could start from there, it'll probably also cost you less.

      I had a music e-book created on scriptlance a while ago. E-book ended up being about 13k words and around 70 pages after messing around with the font, spacing, and adding some pictures. I simply provided the topics for each chapter and specified the writing style, etc. End product was pretty good with some minor fixable grammatical errors. Writer did almost all of the research (I provided some PLR articles for guidance) Anyway, cost me less than $150 to make and I'm selling it for $47.

          This isn't necessarily a service, but Pat Flynn from smartpassiveincome.com offers a free E-book called "E-Books the Smart Way" that goes over everything involved with creating, marketing and selling an E-book. I highly recommend it to anyone, similar to myself, who is just starting to write or sell their first E-Book.

          All you have to do to download it is sign up for his newsletter; you can pick up a copy HERE.

    Just to pick up on what was said earlier about ghostwriters sending you examples of their past work.

    You won't find anyone does this, it violates the NDA that a ghostwriter works under.

    Even if they don't use proper NDAs with their existing clients (I often don't as I know them), sending you another person's copyrighted work would thoroughy qualify them as someone to avoid like the plague lol.

      Thanks, Colin, for bringing this up!

      I've had a number of people ask to see work that I've done for clients, and I always politely tell them that I no longer own the copyrights to it, but that they're more than willing to take a look at the articles I've published on my own site. Sure, they may not be in their exact niche, but the articles will give them a look at my writing style. Most of the time, people have no problem with that (after all, I'm sure they wouldn't want their work passed around either). Although, I have had some people get downright angry when I won't forward them clients' work. Any other writers out there seeing this?? :confused:

      If I put the shoe on the other foot, I wouldn't work with a writer who was willing to hand over my work like it was some kind of trophy. It makes it far too easy for some dishonest person to take an article/ebook/etc., slap their own name on it, and publish it.

      That being said, good writers will have something to show you so that you can see their style (even if it has nothing to do with your niche, you'll still be able to tell if it's written well). Plus, they should be willing to answer any questions you have. In the end, listen to your gut before you hire anyone. If the writer doesn't feel like a good fit, keep looking.

    You can find many good ghostwriters here on the forum. They will be happy to do the research and writing for you. I suggest reading some of their forum posts. You'll be amazed what you can learn about their writing ability by this simple exercise.

    Prices and quality will vary so ask lots of questions.

    I used The Write Thing Content Service recently and was really happy with the service. The quality was a lot better than work I have received from other content companies and the price was fair. I got my book in 3 days. I will use them again for sure, they are new to the forum but worth checking out. I know they have ad avertisement thing under Warriors for Hire with a deal for WF members. But I cannot link the page here because I am new.

    Well you can hire someone from guru.com to write a book for you. But you have to communicate your ideas specifically, in order to come up with something decent.

    I'm going to suggest something a bit different here - why don't you try writing your own? If it's on a topic you're interested in it's nowhere near as daunting a task as you might think.
    The advantages with writing your own ebook are that you can create some truly original and quality material that will build you loyal readers (and more sales in the long run). As well you get some great satisfaction. And it needn't take you that long; in fact many people find that for the hassle of getting someone else to do it and then having to knock it into shape it might have been quicker.
    Worth thinking about...
    Cheers
    - Liam

    I would agree with both Nicole and Colin that you should never provide eBooks written for other clients as examples of your work. Its unprofessional and undermines trust for your future clients.

    I actually use samples I created specifically for the eBook writing service (which took a bit of work but was worthwile I think)

    Unfortunately this can mean that you are not always able to provide a sample in that clients niche.
