Hello, my name is Hailey Ryne and I am a successful ghostwriter who has experience in various forms of writing. I will rewrite or create your story for you whether it be a screenplay, poem, or novel. I will turn it into an epic piece of work for your use. You will own full rights to your work. My writings are highly descriptive and paint vivid imagery in the reader's mind. I have an advanced understanding of the English language and a broad vocabulary. Furthermore, I have an advanced understanding of how camera angles work as well as how they flow together to create moods. The price is negotiable. Things I will take into consideration are the word count, complexity, and how much of it needs to be developed. However, I am a reasonable person in regards to pricing and I work for commission not hours. My average time to complete a piece of work is 1 to 2 weeks because I am working with other clients as well. However, I will most likely produce a piece of work in much less time than that. If you need it sooner than that, I am willing to do so however, I charge extra. Samples of my work are available upon request. Please contact me for further information regarding my services. Thank you for your time and consideration.
