With my 25 years of experience writing, editing, and proofreading, I am the one for you. I see no problem bidding $1.00 per 1000 words. I've spent the past solid 4 months editing articles for a sports publication where at least half a dozen writers were non native English speakers, so I am very used to picking up on rough translations. I can start immediately or as needed. less

Hi, Editing/ Proofreading is an art which has evolved as a Science due to Techno-Sociological developments of the twenty-first century. Editing/Proofreading is a job which I do with pleasure with minimum pressure where, I express my experience with a sense of self-esteem. To put it in a nutshell, I see Editing/Proofreading as poetry of prose. I am, thus, a poet of prose who believes in self-discipline, self-esteem and self-expression. I , hence, enjoy my Editing/Proofreading with the reader in mind with self imposed guidelines for a decent style and time deadline. I can give you a sincere effort in every word, in whatever style you need and in whatever topic you feed. I do a complete proofread to give you a ready to print product – because, by experience I know - that’s what you need! I am a professional Writer/ Editor/ Proofreader working for a few Journals published by a Society in US and a Translation Company in China. Further, I had been a consultant writer for a parenting website from Hartford and an Ergonomic website from Texas. I own a company that gives publishers - a ready to print out put.I charge 1 cent per word and hence,$10 per 1000 words. Thanks, Prof.Ramanan  less

Am a good Proof reader in all kinds of subjects. Am native English speaker as English is my mother tongue. Look forward to receiving your sample project. A writing sample is as under : What do you do with your pet when you take those necessary or exciting trips out of town? At last your dreams can now become a reality, now that you have more time at your disposal since you have retired. But this entails your making suitable arrangements for the satisfactory care of your pet while you’re away. Should your pet be a home loving animal, it is important that he gets into a similar environment to what he now enjoys at home, with the added excitement of having more of his own kind to romp around with. The choice of a suitable alternative may now become a problem. Should you board him in a kennel or leave him at home with a kindly neighbor who may be willing to feed and exercise him at his own convenience, and face the possibility of returning to the destruction of your furniture?! It is important for you to ensure that the kennel you choose offers the following essential facilities: CLEANLINESS Check if the kennel is cleaned up after the animals regularly. Does the kennel, used by animals and people, have a clean appearance? Do the animals appear to be scratching for fleas or any skin irritation? Are all animals required to have had their Rabies and Bordatella immunization shots , which are so essential for your pet’s protection? AVAILABILITY Enquire as to how many days’ notice is required for a place to be available on the dates you choose. Would it be possible to be sure of getting a place in the kennel at short notice? Maybe you should ensure the availability of a place in a back up kennel. Perhaps it would be wise to plan your trip well in advance. HOURS OF OPERATION It is important that you should know the boarding kennel’s hours of operation, both on normal days and on holidays, as this will affect your planning. – AND your expenses should you end up by having to pay for extra days! EXERCISE Ascertain if there is a regular exercise schedule, both indoors and outdoors, to avoid boredom. MEALS Check as to the quality of food your pet will be given. As far as possible it should be the same kind as that which your pet is used to. If not, would it be possible for you to supply your own pet food at the time of your checking in? Are they fed once or twice a day? Would you be allowed to bring along your pet’s favorite blanket or plaything, or a familiar smelling article of your own clothing? If your pet is on medication at the time, would they administer the medication supplied by you? In the interests of your pet’s well being during your absence, don’t hesitate to ask questions and obtain satisfactory answers. The amount per 1000 words is $ 2 less

I am willing to meet your US$1.00 per 1000 words and see how it goes Business depression the current epidemic of the world / Do you have it? Gavin Tonks business mentor and consultant says:-Trade your way “out of a business depression.” “When you are business depressed nothing is more important than getting effective treatment.” Understanding Business Depression If you've been diagnosed with business depression, you may wonder why it had to happen to you. The fact is that anyone can get business depression. The first step in fighting business depression is to understand what it is, how it affects you, and what causes it. Causes of Business Depression Business Depression has no single cause; often, it results from a combination of things. • You may have no idea why business depression has struck you. • Whatever its cause, Business depression is not just a state of mind. • It is related to physical changes in the business, and connected to an imbalance of a type of chemical that carries signals in your brain and nerves, making you forget the obvious and loose sight of logic that is required to plan your way back to business profitability. Some of the more common factors involved in business depression are: • Family Owned business. Genetics play an important part in business depression. It can run in families for generations. Family business is problematic especially when it comes to adapting to the future. • Business trauma and stress. Things like financial problems, the breakup of a business relationship can bring on business depression. You can become business depressed after changes in your life, like not having work, and believing in media reports and becoming catatonic in your business dealings. • Pessimistic business personality. People who have low self-esteem and a negative outlook are at higher risk of becoming business depressed. These traits may actually be caused by low-level depression and a belief that there is no business out there at all. • Physical business conditions. Serious business conditions like no business, cancelled contracts and negative behavior and attitude in those around you can contribute to business depression, partly because of the physical weakness and stress they bring on. Depression can make business conditions worse, since it weakens the immune system and can make pain harder to bear. In some cases, business depression can be caused by listening to media that has no bearing on your business and the clients around you. • Other psychological disorders. Anxiety disorders, not planning disorders, no business plan, and (especially) no clue about the future and how you intend to trade out of the current situation often appear along with business depression. How business antidepressants work for you and your business When certain chemicals in the business (such as cash, orders and profit] are out of balance, business depression usually does occur. Planning and focus improve the symptoms of business depression by bringing these current disorders back into balance. Because different types of business solutions are designed to work differently, side effects associated with each type of business depression medication can vary.  less

Hello. I am new to GAF, but not at all new to proofreading and editing. I have a broad range of experience in a wide variety of media, and I feel that I would be an asset to you. I even have a good deal of experience with translated texts. I have worked with translations from French, German, and Italian, and as such, I have become quite comfortable discerning intent when the meaning might not otherwise have been particularly clear. I hope you will consider my bid, realizing that, while I have no experience yet on GAF, I am an accomplished and published writer and editor with many projects to my credit. I am comfortable editing / proofreading 1000 words for $1, and I am looking forward to establishing a worthwhile long-term working relationship with the right person and under the right conditions. My bid is for 30,000 words that I can proofread for you over a week's time. If that time frame is not acceptable to you, I would be willing to work with you to more closely match your needs with what I am willing to offer you. I appreciate your time and your consideration of my proposal. Please consider the text in my proposal as an example of my writing style and expertise. I look forward to the opportunity to edit a sample for you to demonstrate further my abilities, style, and expertise. Thank you. Regards, Laura less

At the moment I am working my smallholding with plants and a few anaimals althought I am wanting to progress to farming professionally in time. I think I have good grammer and spelling and love to read and try writing that elusive book ocassionally but never seem to progress past the first chapter (maybe one day!). My main passions in life are cars and cooking , I cycle daily and love to swim, also I am planning my next holiday. I hope this is a good proof of my English writing skills and hope to hear from you soon. Lindsey Maith (lindsey maith at hotmail dot com) also it says I cant put a bid in thats less that 30 so my bid is $1 per 1000 words provissionally less
