As a proofreader and editor, my goal is to help authors reach their audiences and excite them with words, whether it be fiction or non-fiction.

I have your sample edit, please let me know how to attach it for you. Message me if interested in my services. Best regards, Cynthia Calzone

I’m a native English speaker and English teacher working at the American University in Cairo. I have carefully read your project description and I strongly believe I can help you with this important editing/proofreading task. I have participated in a great number of creative writing, business writing, rewriting, proofreading, editing and copy-editing tasks for years. However, I'm positive that this job requires meticulous attention to detail as a professional copy editor should have broad experience in linguistics so that they can suggest better alternatives. I'm not only a copy editor but a former EFL teacher, as well—a fact that enables me to use the English language effectively and accurately. Furthermore, I understand completely that you need an expert in editing and proofreading—someone who won't just detect errors, but recast improperly written sentences and give constructive feedback and deliver the intended message. It'd be a pleasure to help you get this project perfectly done within deadline. I never discuss or distribute the contents of my potential projects, but I usually keep copies of your documents on file for a period of 48 hours in the event that you need further editing of future revisions. The finished product will include two copies of the edited text, one that shows the changes, and one that incorporates all of the changes.

I am a skilled and experienced proofreader and editor. I always deliver a quality product meeting all project requirements. I have proofread and edited a wide variety of documents including: 195 novels, 362 non-fiction books, 258 e-books, theses, dissertations, academic articles and reports, blogs, business documents, web content, legal documents and others. I look forward to hearing from you.

Hi, I can do a really great job with proofrading your novel. I currently run my own editing business, where I routinely proof and edit all kinds of texts: essays, dissertations/theses, fiction, articles, etc.. I’ve worked as an editor on two fiction magazines in recent years. Some details about me: - Native English speaker - BA and MA degrees (English), CELTA qualified - Published novelist, short story writer and poet - Managed an editing and proofreading service for several years I have put in a fairly low bid in order to be competitive on Freelancer and because I don't expect to find many errors based on your sample, but please don't wonder if this will affect the quality of the work. I am dedicated to my business and would be happy to work with you to get the work done to a high standard by your deadline or sooner. For testimonials, please view my profile or visit my website: STPediting(dot)wordpress(dotcom)/testimonials/ I will: - Check your documents for spelling, punctuation and grammatical errors - Work to your specifications and deadlines I have already looked over most of your sample and didn't spot any errors at all (although beginning a sentence with 'and' is generally considered incorrect, it's appropriate for the genre nowadays when factoring in style). You use short, punchy sentences which is fine for this genre and keeps the pace up. Please consider me for the job. I look forward to hearing from you. David

Some sentence structures, may be deliberate, my job as an editor would be to catch the unintentional mistakes and give you the opportunity to alter them.

Yes, my bid is higher than some, but if you send me a chapter of your book to edit for FREE, I think you will see why you should hire me. You will get tremendous value for your money. My method, developed over 38 years as an award-winning journalist and wordsmith, is to edit a book three times: First, to evaluate its total concept, correct all errors, and smooth out the rough edges; second, to add creative touches and suggest meaningful changes; third, to make sure in a final polish that the text flows flawlessly and connects most effectively with readers. All this takes extra time and extreme focus. Among the books I've edited are a children's story, a self-help book, an entrepreneurial guide, two spirituality journals, thrillers set in Africa and the Mideast, and a young adult romance novel. Talk to you soon!

Hi, I'd like to proofread your manuscript. How many times have you edited it? I find that commas are being less and less these days. As long as the meaning of a sentence is clear, many commas aren't necessary. I tend to be a traditionalist - using commas by the book ... so to speak. I am a university-educated native English speaker with a fine eye for detail. I have lots of experience outside of this site - writing, editing, publishing, teaching creative writing and doing manuscript consultations. Please see my reviews and portfolio on my profile page. Thank you.

Hi there, I'm interested in helping you. I have edited over 100 different types of writings. I have a good eye for finding where commas should be. The project could be completed in a shorter time, but quality could be compromised, which I don't like. By the way, have you noticed my use of commas? ;) Please get in touch. Thanks, Kevin
