I'm an experienced proofreader/editor with a postgraduate background in communication studies. I strive for complete accuracy and the highest degree of professionalism in the work I complete. With excellent content recognition, my editing and proofreading skills extend across many industries and business needs—you could say that I am an “editing savant”—and have always been the hidden accomplice behind any successful document. I also have a 5 star average rating to prove my competency as a Pro Editor with 18+ years of experience. The message in your eBook needs the five key elements of communication: Clarity Coherency Concision Consistency Correctness This is what you would be guaranteed if I am awarded this project. Work will be done using MS Word Trackchanges so you can see any corrections made. I enjoy supporting people to be their best, especially when it comes to clear communication. A link to my professional portfolio is provided below. [login to view URL] Best regards, Marli (Another freelancer has intentionally created errors on my sample to discredit the quality of my work. This is unprofessional and unacceptable. Will you trust such a person with your work? The samples on my portfolio (http://www.freelancer.com/u/happymarli.html?page=portfolio) are grammatically correct. You can verify those false claims.)

I am an experienced editor for texts on self-help, actualization, discernment, and personal growth. I worked closely with the author of "MePLC: Your Life Is Your Business" and provided input as well as editing and proofreading help; I also did the layout for his book. I edited workbooks and training materials for the Clergy Leadership Institute, and provided feedback on content, layout, and style there as well. I won't hesitate to make suggestions! This is the type of text I enjoy reading as well as editing, because I always learn something that helps me in my own journey. In fact, the work I did for the Clergy Leadership Institute prompted me to start my own freelance business and move to Europe. I'm in France, which is currently 9 hours ahead of the west coast of the US, so I apologize for time lags, but the advantage is that I'm working during your nighttime, so you'll wake up to finished files. I use Open Office but can save files in any standard word processing format, and I do my book layout and publishing work in InDesign. I'm looking forward to working with you! - Elizabeth

Hello! I am currently employed with the North Dakota Legislative Council as their proofreader, and I have been a proofreader/editor for almost 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

Hi I am a research professional with 9+ years of experience in market research, advertising and social media management. In my experience as a market researcher, I have had to deliver high-quality, error-free reports and analysis. As a team lead, I had to proof read all client deliverables and make sure the language, grammar, spellings, logical reasoning, etc were impeccable. I have very strong spoken and written English skills (further certified by achieving a top 1% rank in the freelancer.com sponsored ‘US English 1’ exam). While I currently reside in India, I have studied and worked in the United States for nearly 9 years prior to this. In addition, I recently helped an educator edit and proof read a teacher's manual. She would be happy to provide a reference for my work, if needed. Finally, I am happy to send you a test / sample piece to indicate my eligibility for this work. If you direct message me, I could edit a couple of pages of your current document and send it back to you. I look forward to hearing back from you. Best, Radhika

Hi Tony, I have just finished converting a website from bad German English into UK English. That involved proofreading, editing and paraphrasing. They liked my work and now I am converting their 470 page technical software manual into US English. I lived in CA for a while so I speak your lingo too! My proofreading/editing speed is about 2,000 words per hour on average, so your project should take me 10 hours @ $10/hr plus Freelancer fees. I will not charge you more than that. I can turn your doc around in two days, starting immediately. Below I pasted in a sample of how I would treat the first paragraph. I used upper case because this bid system does not keep formatting. Best wishes, Dan ----- Today’s Principal (PRINCIPLE) of Forward Movement STOP! As you begin to start the process of moving forward from the things that have had (DELETE HAD) you stuck, the first and foremost thing you must do is to stop. Dr. Keith Johnson, America's #1 Confidence Coach says that we must have a “Stop Doing List”. You have to stop moving, stop pushing and stop fighting against the things that that are holding you down and simply be still. (PERIOD AFTER DOWN. NEW SENTENCE: Simply be still) That does not sound like the most typical of advice, I know. (LIKE TYPICAL ADVICE, I KNOW)Let me explain why.

Hello, I run my services from the Indian city of Calcutta and bring to the table more than two decades of editing experience at several English newspapers. We Indians have been using the English language in both academia and daily life for more than 200 years; so please have no worries on that front. I am much more active on Elance than I am here. The former suits me well as it allows one to establish one’s credentials free of cost; here, even taking a test costs you money! A former mainstream journalist, I have had the experience of editing material related to company management, government/business endeavors to resolve political/racial conflicts, and psychometric assessment of corporate managers. I have also edited reviews of books by economic theorists and writers. So far, my editing has brought me five-star ratings. My recent editing of a manuscript on fast metabolism diet -- a self-help book -- has brought me yet another five-star rating– all on Elance though. I would like to proofread/edit your 19k-word book to your requirements. If you chose me to do this job you’d be pleasantly surprised to find what a non-native speaker could do to enhance a piece of text. I’m a former business journalist with 26+ years of desk experience at four major English dailies in India, and a company that provides editing services online. I have a BA (Hons) degree in English literature. Regards, Writeman4it

Hello. I checked the sample and proofread it. I does need proofreading since you use long, compound sentences. But, it might not need a thorough proofreading for the sake of keeping the friendly tone of your writing. I'm so excited to proofread/ edit the rest of your document. I'm also able to meet the deadline. Thank you and looking forward to hearing from you.
