Hi,
I'm a writer from the UK. As a trained proofreader and a published writer, I can definitely get your project off the ground and sounding amazing. I have written short stories and novels in the past, so I'm familiar with what you're looking for.
A topic like yours needs some special attention and the right person to take it on. It's not an easy thing to write about, let alone go through. I hope that the process of writing your book with me can help us both (I've not had a good time recently either).
My bid isn't the lowest, but it's a fair price for what you'll get, which is a really good author, proofreader and editor on your side for the whole process. Plus, this is my native language, so it's always going to be better than most of the writers on here.
If you're interested, give me a shout. I'd love to help you.
All the best,
Matt
