I wrote a novel about Berlin and I need professional help from a NATIVE ENGLISH SPEAKER to correct possible mistakes I might have done. Possibly, it would have to be someone familiar with literature so that they wouldn't alter the meaning and rhythm of certain sentences. The book is approximately 70.000 words.

I have carefully read your project description and I strongly believe that I can help you in this important novel 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 possessing broad experience, both in general 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 also look for a professional writer who can efficiently change the structure of sentences and get the whole text remolded, whenever needed. 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. PS I also have a BA in English Language and Literature. Kind regards, Amelie Heill

Hi, I am a professional editor and proofreader with a degree in English Literature. I am a native speaker of English and my spelling, punctuation and grammar skills are excellent. I can ensure that your novel reads in your natural style. I would use the track changes feature in Word so you can see any adjustments made. Editing is something that I really enjoy doing, it doesn't feel like a job! Please see my feedback and contact me if you would like any more information. Best regards, Georgina.

As a Bachelor of Education, I have been an English educator for more than 20 years. In 1997, I made the Philippines my home and work as an English teacher in several High Schools. Occasionally, I edit and translate European novels and biographies into English for an American Publishing House. My latest project was a complete translation and editorial of a biography of Charlie Bossart, the designer of the Atlas Rocket, which I tremendously enjoyed. As an avid reader, I detest finding grammatical errors in published works. My strategy is as follows: 1. Look for grammatical and typographical errors. 2. Edit the sentence construction without changing the flow of the story. 3. Contact the writer whenever a problem occurs. As I am new to this particular site I'd like to take the opportunity to tackle this assignment as my first Freelancer commitment. It seems like a project I might enjoy. My guarantee is that your manuscript will be error-free and handled by me. I do not subcontract. If you have any further questions, don't hesitate to contact me. I'll try to reply promptly to any inquiry you may have. I hope to hear from you soon! Sincerely, Karen.

I am currently studying BA Philosophy at a premiere and, I needed some "assistance" to cover my bills. And also, as a Philosophy student, proofreading would be easy for me to do as it is our "life".
