Copy Editing 100 Page Book for HighSchool Age Students

Completed Posted May 11, 2011 Paid on delivery
Completed Paid on delivery

I have just completed the first rounds of heavy editing of a self-help book for high school students. I'm lookin g for someone to not re-write, but to identify and correct MAJOR grammatical or word-use errors. I take great creative license in my use of grammar and puntuation. I don't want that necessarily removed. But I don't want to be embarrased either when someone reads the book who knows a thing or two about the English language!

I'll provide the book that is already formatted for publication in a MS Word 2007/2010 format. I cannot have that format changed in any way, shape, or form. Just track changes using word and away we go.
