Lois McMaster Bujold:
hey Lois McMaster Bujold i am not an author but i do have lots of creative and amazing ideas and concepts to write a book on so if anyone is in search of the same i can provide them with entire detailed plots for the story as well as i'll help them even afterwords in case they need ideas with the scenes but i am not getting such peoples so can you please suggest me the way to reach such people?

No.
To put it briefly: ideas are easy, writing is hard. Most writers want to work on their own ideas, not someone else's.
If you want to see your ideas on a page, you are far better off learning how to write yourself. (Among other things, that should teach you why your hopeful plan above won't work.)
An excellent place to start, with some of the most sensible writing advice on the web, is here: http://www.pcwrede.com/blog/ She even has some posts scattered in there on this very topic, and why it never flies.

Dear Lois, Thank you for all the excellent hours of reading over the years. I really have to force myself to slow down when you have a new release because it's always bittersweet to wait a year or more for a book and then finish it in a day. I'm really enjoying penric. I'd write more, but I have to get to my question. Do you have any recommendations for someone looking for a new author to read?

I was browsing the Baen ebook site and came across this: https://www.baen.com/penrics-travels-earc.html It shows a pub date of 5/5/2020, which of course is more than a month away. I have all these already, of course, but do you have any info on this? Good cover art, too, btw.
