Greetings,
Please notice that my bid is at the highest end of your budget. Simply put, great quality is worth the cost.
I have several articles published in various traditional magazines, multiple blogs, five different websites, one traditional paperback book, and ebooks published. You may contact me to locate samples of my writing. During my experience as a classroom teacher I was also responsible for writing several successful grants, some involving tens of thousands of dollars in awarded grants.
Whenever you put something out for public inspection, you want it to reflect you in the most positive light. Thus, low bid is not always the highest quality.
Finally, you most certainly want to portray yourself as a person of the highest quality, and a well-written book is a magnificent step in that direction.
Thank you for giving my bid serious and positive consideration.
