My bid is provisional since you haven't specified how long the story is. Is it a novel or a short story? That being said, I'm a longtime science fiction fan. The quality of my work is shown by the fact that a significant percentage of my clients have either rehired me or given me an unsolicited bonus (four times in my last 12 jobs) or both.

Hi there! I work as an academic writer and editor for the last few years, and I have completed my Masters' Degree in English. I am quite unsure about the project details - do you just want the story proofread, or would you like someone to also edit it to ensure that it is perfectly aligned in logic and its plot construct? I do not take up a lot of projects at a time, so that I can give individual projects my undivided attention. Currently, I do not have any projects lined up in the next week, so I will be focusing on your project solo. Let me know if you are interested.

Hello, I understand that you need a science fiction story proofread for errors. I was actually proofreading a journal article earlier this week that will be published next month in Sleep Medicine Reviews, a nationally-recognized journal for current sleep research. I do this type of work frequently for PhD and MD level members of my research lab, as I tend to be more finicky than most about spelling and grammar. I am very deliberate and careful in my editing, and can easily provide the original document with a tracked-changes document that contains all my suggested corrections or modifications. This project sounds like it could be completed in Microsoft Word with ease, and I believe it's something I could complete in less than 2 weeks, depending on the length. I am available to start this work as early as this evening (April 23, 2014). If you want to contact me to discuss this project further, I would be happy to provide some examples of recently edited documents with my changes tracked. I'm looking forward to working with you soon! Thank you, Charles Corbitt, M.S. Clinical Research Coordinator Behavioral Sleep Medicine Program University of Pennsylvania Department of Psychiatry Philadelphia, PA 19104

Hello! I am currently employed with the North Dakota Legislative Council as their proofreader, and I have been a proofreader/editor for more than 9 years. I am a native English speaker, and I have an in-depth knowledge of the English language and grammar. I have proofread many different types of documents. On a daily basis, I have to produce high-quality work that is not only error-free but also flows smoothly and makes sense. The majority of the work I do is seen by the public, so I have to ensure that my work is the highest quality so the author of the document maintains a good rapport with the public. I would love the opportunity to help you with your project and to show you the quality of work I can do. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to ask. Thank you in advance for your time. ~KJensen0711

As a creative writer with an interest in science fiction, I understand that it is important to have clarity for this kind of writing. Even though you describe the story as only somewhat science fiction, there can still be confusion in the conceit or the gimmick that the story employs. I have edited and commented on many short stories, particularly while pursuing my B. A. in creative writing. I also hold an M. A. in English, and I have recently edited a novel in another genre that can get bogged down into confusion (medical mystery). The novel's author has been very satisfied with my work and has agreed with nearly all of my suggestions. Since your story has already been edited a number of times, I expect to pay close attention to small mistakes, while double checking that consistency hasn't been lost due to editing. Sometimes we edit something out and then forget that it was tied to another passage. In general, I approach editing someone else's story by pretending that it is my own, and being as critical of it as I am in my own work. I feel this is the only way to edit, because as an editor, my job is to make your writing the best it can be.
