I have carefully read your project description and I strongly believe that I can help you in this important editing/proofreading project. I have participated in a great number of creative writing, rewriting, proofreading, editing and copy-editing tasks for years. However, I'm positive that this job requires a lot of attention on the editor's part, along with the possession of broad experience, in both business and creative writing. I'm not only a copy editor but an EFL teacher, as well – a fact that enables me to use the English language efficiently and accurately. I fully understand that you need an expert in editing and proofreading. I'm also aware of the fact that clients not only need someone to detect errors, but they also look for a professional writer who can edit content for both coherence and clarity. It'd be a pleasure to help you get this project perfectly done within deadline. Kindly, check my portfolio for more credentials and authentic samples showing my style in editing. I never discuss or distribute the contents of your documents, but I normally keep copies of your documents on file for a period of 48 hours in the event that you need further editing of future revisions. Confidentiality is highly assured!

Hi there. I would love to work with you on this project. Here's a little background information about me: I am a native English speaking professional proofreader, with excellent editing skills and a strong administrative background. I have edited full-length novels, multiple eBooks, company brochures, many items of business correspondence, etc. Some recent comments from my clients: “Such a skilled and professional editor - really knows her stuff! Her comments were/are extremely helpful to my novel. Communication and timeliness of the deliverable were also above expectations. I would like to work with her again!” “She is amazing! She's personable, hard working and incredibly knowledgeable about proofreading/editing. I hope to hire numerous times in the future. Hire her! ” I have lived and worked all over the world, and bring this global perspective to my editing projects. My exam results confirm that I have an exceptional command of both US and UK English. Thank you for considering my proposal - I would love to have the opportunity to work with you!

Hello! I would love to help you with your book! I am currently a university student completing my third year as an English major and I am eager to gain experience in the field. I am thinking that payment per chapter edited is preferred by me. The price can be negotiated per chapter as long as it is fair! The price decided on per chapter will be divided into my bid to determine how many chapters I will edit. After the bid is completed, we can decide on further payment.

Greetings! I would be very pleased to deliver an excellent edit of your book. I have over 20 years of experience as a freelance writer and editor, and that includes making my clients' manuscripts shine at their brightest, insuring continuity of flow for the reader, proper grammar, spelling, punctuation - everything required to allow your words to reach out and convey your desired message. You say editing done as soon as you complete the chapters, so that sounds as though this is still a work in progress, correct? If so, approximately how long do you plan for the book to be - either estimated page length or word count? And how far along are you at present, please? I guarantee that my clients are completely satisfied with the work I provide, and that it either meets their expectations, or in most cases, exceeds them. Would love to discuss the possibilities here - if you would like to see what I can do, please feel free to send me 5 to 8 pages and I'll edit them on spec - free of charge - just so you can get a feel for my abilities. Please do answer my questions in the above paragraph, as should this be a book of "epic" proportions (500 pages or more) I would have to adjust my bid accordingly. Thanks so much - I look forward to your response! Sincerely, Cheryl E. Booth

I would not say I'm the best, since there are many skilled writers here, but what certainly makes me better than the next is a definite command over vocabulary, fluency and lucidity in expression and adaptability, since I can write long, connected sentences or short, simple ones as required or according to requirement. More than anything else, I'm fervently looking for writing-work, so combine my language skills with a heavy dose of sincerity and commitment, and you have an excellent choice at your disposal. I AM BETTER THAN “NATIVE WRITERS.” Looking forward to your positive response. Regards Tanveer

Hi, my name is James and I would love to have the opportunity to proofread your texts. I have good proofreading experience on this site, proven by my many positive reviews. I am also a native English speaker, thus making me an ideal candidate for any editing job. If you want a sample text, then I will send you one directly. My prices are as follows: $13 per 1000 words up to 5000 words. $11.50 per 1000 words thereafter. Please note that these prices apply only for individual texts under 15000 words. My delivery times for texts are usually within 3 days, though with a maximum of 5 days. These prices will apply for each chapter, though I am negotiable on price. I will only ask for payment per chapter - that way, you can pay as you go through the Milestone system. Please don't hesitate to contact me. Regards, James.

Attention to grammatical and semantic detail is key for this project. I've edited a friend's dissertation recently and I'm currently editing my own dissertation. Therefore, with an abundance of time on my hands, I'm well placed to do this for others. In fact, English language and creative writing is the very subject of my Masters programme! I've also published political documents for Wales-wide publication and have had numerous articles published in a local paper under my former employer's name. Each chapter will require a number of read-throughs, because different aspects of the word become apparent with each edit. I'm happy to do this and to communicate on Skype or by email as your work progresses and to provide you with more tailored feedback.
