Hello! My name is Candace, a published author and freelance writer/editor of over a decade. I studied Advanced Fiction Writing as well as Editing Essentials and I've polished over fifty manuscripts throughout my career. As both a writer and editor I feel that I bring an extra skill to the table when perfecting my clients hard work. I use a three step editing process where I check grammar and punctuation, spelling, character development and ensure that the plot weaves together perfectly. I would love to take a look at your manuscript and really hope that you will consider me. You can find my other five star rated profiles on Odesk and Elance as well. Aside from my editing services, I am also a Createspace and paperback publication expert. I'll make sure that your polished manuscript is returned to you formatted and ready to publish on a POD platform. Thanks! Candace Osmond

Hi. I would like to collaborate with in having a fantastic result: I can proofread your content and make sure it's entirely perfect from all points of view. Correcting the spelling and any possible grammar mistakes, making sure the content is coherent and keeps a logical line, rearranging the chapters, splitting the content in chapters where needed, I can do everything the novel needs in order to have a perfect result. I will repeat the word perfect again, because I am a perfectionist and don't let any error escape my view. I am always finished only after I made sure my clients are 200% satisfied, meaning much more than only providing a great corrected text. If you would like to use my services, i can answer to any questions regarding my previous activities. This description didn't advertise my capabilities, it only described them.

I hold a Business Administration degree from Manipal University, Dubai campus. Venturing on a different canvas has always been my take, and challenges and change drive me forward, thereby I would excel at the role. I look forward to discussing my experiences and training in more detail. Please let me know if you wish to further discuss your requirements and my ability to meet them.

Best of luck on your novel! As an online instructor, I spend a great deal of time reading and correcting the research papers of my students. Editing a novel would be a nice change for me. And as a new freelancer, I am offering what I hope is a competitive bid for your consideration. What is your novel about and what program did you use to compile your current draft? I hope to hear from you soon. Again, best of luck on this exciting project!

Dear Client Although new to this site, I am an old hand in the publishing industry. As an experienced Managing Editor, I have worked with a number of successful Cape Town-based publishing companies. In my capacity as Managing Editor, my responsibilities included the full book production process. This included manuscript assessment, scoping of the book production process and assigning the relevant freelance (editors, artists, designers, typesetters) resources. During this process I would liaise closely with the author (or in some cases, author team), discuss manuscript development and changes, and where able, edit and proofread some titles personally. On the rest of the publishing list I would oversee and manage the quality of editing and proofreading. I have worked with the following companies in both a full-time and freelance capacity: Juta, Struik, Reader's Digest SA, Prentice Hall SA, Pearson Education SA, Maskew Miller Longman, Nasou Via-Afrika, Zebra Press, Oxford University Press, The Human Sciences Research Council and the University of Cape Town (Schools Development Unit). In addition I have completed freelance projects for a number of smaller organisations needing Annual Reports and marketing materials written and produced. Please feel free to contact me to discuss your project needs and how I may fulfil them. As a newcomer to this site I am open to negotiation and keen to start working. Yours sincerely Linda
