I need professional & experienced editor to polish a novel

My rate is usually USD10 per 1,000 words, but for larger works I reduce this rate. I am happy to do a sample of a few pages or a chapter (at no charge) to see if you like my work. I registered with Freelancer in February last year and have 130 reviews, all positive. English is my first language and my skills include technical writing, editing, proofreading, and transcribing. In February this year I took on a role as the copy editor for The International Journal of Wellbeing, an online journal, and this year I have also begun as the copy editor for the Blind Foundation of New Zealand. One of my earlier projects with Freelancer was to edit a 65,000-word science fiction novel, and the client was so pleased with my work that he commended me to Freelancer, and an article about me was published by Freelancer. For two years I was a copy editor for Elsevier Science Publishers in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, rewriting text by authors who were not native English speakers. I have worked with individual clients to bring more than 20 books to publication and five of these clients have rehired me to work on further books. Having been a teacher of English in high school for four years, I have spent many hours making corrections and suggestions for students' essays. For an additional two years I was a teacher of English as a second language. For six years I have been a member of a writing critique group, regularly reviewing the stories submitted and occasionally writing my own.

I am a professional editor who works quickly and thoroughly. My bid is a flat rate. I can ensure that your novel is free from grammatical errors and can also help with word choice and sentence structure, as necessary. I am including below a few reviews I have received for similar projects. You are welcome to visit my profile to view my additional reviews. Thank you for your consideration. “She is the best! I have used her for editing my manuscript for three drafts. I highly recommend her if you need your work done professionally and on time!” “I loved Krystal! I would love to work with her again! She is consistent and creative and this book wouldn't have happened if it wasn't for her awesome editing!” “klboots performed an edit and a detailed critique of my 75,000 word novel and I could not be more happy with the final product! I will definitely hire again!!” “Klboots did an excellent job proofreading and editing my novel! She paid attention to detail and greatly improved my book's structure! I plan on re-hiring her very soon!” “I was nervous about hiring off freelancer, based on the content of my book, but klboots was professional and her work was amazing.. The project was finished under the time quoted as well.” “Quick turnaround; very thorough review; her comments were helpful and thoughtful and made my document a better story. Would hire her again in a heartbeat!” “Amazing proof-reader! I have been hiring her for a while and I would not hire anyone else!”

I have an impeccable eye for detail and always submit perfect work to the highest standard. I am fully proficient with all the relevant software and will always track changes. I will keep in constant communication and submit a tracked copy and a clean copy ready for publication in whatever format you prefer. The price quoted is for the entire manuscript to be edited. Thank You.

Hi, my name is Georgia and I'd love to assist with your project. As a bit of background about me, I'm a recent graduate of the University of Queensland, ranked in the top 30 universities worldwide, where I completed my Bachelor's degree in Law/Arts, with first class honours. I've previously worked as a research clerk/paralegal with an immigration law firm in Brisbane, as well as managing my own highly successful online retail business, instaLens. As such, I have spent the past six years writing, drafting and editing essays, proposals, research papers and legal documents in an academic and professional context, with meticulous attention to content, style, grammatical accuracy and flow. I've read over your project description and would be happy to assist with proofreading your book. As I have previous experience with proofreading and editing books, and an extensive and sophisticated grasp of the English language, I think I would be a great candidate for the job. As I am brand new to Freelancer, I would be happy to assist at a small cost in order to build my reputation. I am currently taking some time off work to travel, so have a very flexible schedule and workload at present and could complete this project quickly. Thanks for your consideration, and good luck!

I have two years of professional copyediting experience for an education publisher as well as several years of unremunerated work as a proofreader and editor for a news-oriented website. I also have extensive experience ghostwriting fiction for Freelancer employers. I am currently writing for my own account a series of middle-school oriented fantasy novels. This gives me experience both on the editing and composing side of fiction. However, I am bidding in the expectation that the job is only for a basic copyedit -- spelling, punctuation, dropped words, etc. -- and that no style editing is wanted. I am offering a bid that works out to a rate of slightly more the half-a-cent per word.

$170 With more than 8years writing experience, and also having excellent command in English, I have been able to acquire a wide range of experience in Academic writing, Technical writing , Product Description, Editing, Proofreading, Seo projects, Content writing, Copy writing, Ghost Writing, Creative writing, Article writing, and Article Re-writing. With professionalism and knowledge in the field, I can assure you of: 1) Quality work in fast turnaround. 2) Error and plagiarism free work. 3) Your satisfaction is 100% guaranteed 4) Search Engine Optimized content 5) On-time delivery. Hire me for this project and I will give you a reason to hire me again. Should you have any question, please feel free to contact me as I sincerely look forward to working with you. Best Regards, David B.

Hello, My name is San. I would enjoy helping you with your novel. Why should you choose me as your editor? Well, I am a trained professional book editor. I have commissioned books, collaborated with authors to develop books and edited books under contract. In all, close to 60 books now. Two of my first jobs on this site were children’s books (please see my feedback from these clients). I have an analytical mind and an editor’s eye for detail. I would edit your book personally (not simply run it through relatively ineffective computer software). My broader background is more than two decades working full-time for national newspaper, magazine and book publishers in Australia and for two large Australian government departments (primary industries and tax). I also have experience mentoring less experienced writers and editors. My rate for books is a discount on my commercial rate because I appreciate authors generally have their book edited at their own cost. I am fairly new to freelancer. My clients have always expected less from me than I have been able to deliver, which explains my less than 100% rating for being on time and on budget. These clients have preferred me to do more (taking longer) and some of them have chosen to pay me a tip that, while appreciated, was unsolicited. As their feedback indicates, I have the expertise and desire to do a good job for you. Please contact me if there is anything I can add and to discuss how I can benefit your novel.

Thanks for the chance to bid on your project. I'm an experienced writer and editor who specializes in working with other writers to make their work shine. I've done everything from scholarly manuscripts (in fields as diverse as history and psychiatry) to feature film scripts. My typical process includes an initial read and consultation on overall voice, narrative flow, plot points, etc. From there, I'll do a close copy edit, after establishing with you how far you'd like the changes to go. I can stay focused on correcting errors or do a more extensive edit--it's up to you. You'll get a lot of bids from folks who haven't read your project description, but just bid on anything. I'd encourage you to look closer at those of us who are ready to give your project the attention it deserves. Best of luck!

I am an avid reader, with sharp attention to detail. This has given me a great eye when it comes to editing. I edit for spelling and grammar, of course, but also for language fluidity, and for any mistakes or awkwardness that would take the reader outside of your book. I would very much like an opportunity to do this job, and would actually be willing to do this at a lower price. I am looking to gain reviews on this site, and would appreciate any opportunity to prove myself.
