Edit a book

Hi. I am an English professor with 20 years of experience teaching writing at the college level, so my mastery of grammar, style, tone, audience awareness, and documentation styles is expert. I enjoy editing and proofreading, and am extremely meticulous, accurate, and fast. I have a PhD in English and am a native speaker of US English. I request a high fee because of the high quality of my work and my superb qualifications. You can see my excellent feedback on my profile, along with my skill tests. What I can do for $500 is: I can easily proofread and lightly edit a manuscript of, say, 350 double-spaced typed pages, in a week. I would use MS Word Track Changes (unless you prefer otherwise), and give overall comments about structure, tone, consistency of style, and so forth. What I mean by "lightly edit" is smooth out awkward wording, correct usage and mechanics, identify comma splices, reorder some sentences for clarity, and other matters along those lines. It depends what the subject of your book is--if this is a highly technical book requiring specialized knowledge, that will take me longer; or if it is substantially longer than my guess; or if you want substantial editing, e.g. rewriting a chapter. What I suggest is that if you accept my bid, give me the whole manuscript to look at, and then I will edit a small portion--a chapter or portion of a chapter--for a smaller fee, and see if you want me to proceed further.

As F. Scott Fitzgerald puts it: "You don't write because you want to say something, you write because you've got something to say;" One word he omits in that is "always". I have been lucky enough to know how to always say something about nothing (sometimes) and make it sound like it's the most important thing since man's first moon landing! I have been freelancing for a while now, had a stint in print and online markets. Quality is underrated in the online world with the race to make everything Search Engine Optimizable (people cramming keywords into articles). However, my work always has that quality guaranteed stamp or I would not bother. I just wrote this passage so you can assess my language skills. I manage a team of writers so it’s a daily routine for me to proofread their work. I not only read the text from start to end but also backwards because some of the spelling mistakes which you miss out in first reading can be easily identified with this technique. While proofreading, I always read out loud. It helps me spot those areas which require my attention. I assure you there won’t be any grammar and sentence structure issues left in the text. I charge, $6/hour. Please check my portfolio on Freelancer – http://www.freelancer.com/u/uzmakazmi.html Do take a look on my reviews and see what other employers have to say about me and then browse to my portfolio to check out my articles on different subjects. Thanking you in anticipation. Regards Uzma

On a daily basis, I have to produce high-quality work that is not only error-free but also flows smoothly and makes sense.

I've always had a way with written words. I graduated from Michigan State with a degree in Film, however I took many Creative and Academic Writing courses in which I excelled. I'm curious to know what your book's content entails. While I pride myself in my ability to adapt to different forms of writing, I have vast experience working in creative writing of all sorts. I love to write poetry, rap lyrics, country songs, and scripts as hobbies, and I am currently writing a full-length fiction novel. Regardless, I am more than confident I will be proficient in proofreading your book, and I may even be able to help rework any content you might desire help with. Again, I love words, and I truly enjoy working with them. I think I'd be an excellent candidate to help you provide a top-notch finished product. Thank you! David "Blake" Brown

I am looking forward to discuss this job opportunity with you. Thank you. Respectfully, Marina de Torres
