About

I’ve written a 35,000-word book on herbal tinctures and am seeking a qualified expert to provide a professional opinion on the content’s accuracy, clarity, and practical value. This is not a request for a review, testimonial, or endorsement. I’m looking for an informed evaluation of the material’s validity from someone with relevant credentials. The expert's role is advisory only. The book is written for a general audience interested in practical herbal health and tincture preparation. The file will be provided to you as a PDF. The manuscript will be shared under mutual confidentiality until publication. Your written opinion (approx. 300–500 words) may be quoted in part or whole within the book or its description, with your permission. You may decline to have your commentary quoted publicly. This use is optional and does not imply additional compensation beyond the agreed project fee. I will contact you through Upwork should I seek permission for use. How Your Commentary Will Be Used: Your feedback may be quoted in the book's front matter, description, or marketing materials in the following format: • "Technical consultation provided by [Name, Credentials]" • Selected quotes from your commentary may be included (with your approval of final wording) • You will NOT be described as "endorsing" or "recommending" the book Ideal Candidates May Include: • Registered Herbalists (e.g., RH (AHG), CHAofBC) • Naturopathic Doctors (ND) with tincture formulation experience • Clinical Herbal Practitioners with formal training • Educators or authors in herbal medicine or phytotherapy • Editors or consultants in natural health publishing Deliverables: • A short written commentary (300–500 words) offering your professional opinion on the book’s content validity • Three areas to address: Pharmacological accuracy, safety claims, and usefulness for lay person audience. Familiarity with herbal monographs (e.g., Ph. Eur., WHO monographs, or AHG materia medica) preferred but not essential. • Due within 2 weeks (14 calendar days) of project start Requirements: • Ability to provide documentation of credentials (e.g., scanned certificate, professional profile, published work). I will ask before final hiring. • Clear, constructive writing style suitable for general readers • One round of clarification questions from me about your commentary is included. • Comfort with your commentary being quoted, if mutually agreed • Comfortable with not being the only candidate hired
