I have a draft academic paper in the social sciences that needs a thorough editorial pass before I submit it to a peer-reviewed journal. I’m looking for someone who can polish the language for clarity and academic tone, tighten the overall flow, and double-check that every reference is correctly formatted against the journal’s preferred style (likely APA 7th, though I’ll confirm once we start). The manuscript is approximately 7,500 words, including abstract and references. I’ll share the current Word file and the target journal’s author guidelines. Please track all changes so I can review each revision, and include short margin comments where you suggest structural improvements or flag ambiguous arguments. By the end of the project I’d like: • A clean, submission-ready version of the paper. • A tracked-changes version showing every edit. • A brief editorial summary (one page max) explaining major alterations and any outstanding issues I should address. If you have a background in social science writing or have edited for journals in sociology, political science, or related fields, that will be a plus. Let me know your turnaround time and a single sample of a similar project you’ve completed.

Hi, I went through your project and I’d really like to work on it. I understand that you’re not looking for someone to completely rewrite your paper — you want someone to carefully go through it, improve the writing, and make sure everything is ready before you submit it. I can read through the full 7,500 words and work on the grammar, sentence structure, clarity, academic tone, transitions, and overall flow. I’ll keep your original ideas and meaning intact and won’t make unnecessary changes just to make the paper sound “fancier.” I can also check your references carefully against the journal guidelines and APA 7th style. If I come across a part where an argument is unclear or the structure could be stronger, I’ll leave a comment for you so you can decide what you want to change. You’ll get the clean final version, a tracked-changes version, and the short editorial summary you mentioned. I’m still growing my profile here, so I don’t want to give you a made-up list of journal projects or pretend I have experience I don’t. I’d rather show you what I can do. If you want, you can send me a small section of the paper and I can edit it as a sample first. If you like the way I handle it, we can take it from there. Thanks for reading my proposal. I’d be happy to give this paper the careful edit it deserves.
