Proofread and enhance a translated novel

Completed Posted 5 years ago Paid on delivery
Completed Paid on delivery

I have written a novel in Arabic language. It has been translated to English but contains many mistakes.

I would like it proof read for grammar, and spelling. Also improving the vocabulary, re-structuring some paragraphs and making appropriate corrections to the nonsense translated sentences, flow, and grammatical accuracy of the manuscript, without altering the plot.

I need an editor who can indent my manuscript how it needs to be in order for it to be seriously looked at by a literary agent and eventual publisher.

The novel is about 215 pages (49000 words).

Only NATIVE english bidders please (usa, uk, canada, etc)

You should highlight any edits you make.
