Description

We need 20 of our articles proof read.

Only bid if you are a native British speaker + from uk/usa- I need native English speaking proofreaders, (No Timewasters Please, timewasters will be ignored!)

This job should be easy for somebody who knows what they are doing.

You have to check for grammatical and punctuation errors, spelling mistakes, and correct them.

I need native English speaking proofreaders to proofread and edit 20 articles so that they look as if written by a native speaker. They are written in good English, but have grammatical errors here and there, so you have to proofread and find these and correct them.

Each article is just about 280 words long, and simply written- but you need to correct the minor errors you find when you read them, and save the New produced version of the proofread file.

Rate:
i will give $0.0005 per word. only native English speakers please! (or please state your closest bid)

i will send a sample, unpaid, if i like your bid. i need 20 articles, proofread and edited(mistakes corrected) according to laid down standards. more details to successful bidder. happy bidding

We are just looking for $3-4 for this project, or $0.0005 per word (or please state your closest bid)

I bid on this @ 75 USD. If you are not happy with the price ignore my bid. I have to agree with loriamckenzie. Your rate is ridiculous. I am not surprised you need those articles edited. What did you pay the writer? When do people learn that quality comes at a price? Good Luck with this project seeing that you have plenty of "professors" and english "natives" to choose from

Thank you kindly for taking my bid for your job under advisement. As I am a writer of integrity, I feel it my duty to inform you that this is one of my first bids as a freelance writer. That is not to say that I have not done my share of writing in the past, I have, just not under this guise. In my 20 years working in the corporate world, the majority of my writings were primarily focused on policy and procedure content for Fortune 500 companies such as Sprint, Cigna, and JPMorgan Chase. I have also done some technical writing for training purposes for those same organizations. While at Sprint PCS, I was the lead content writer for all new customer service policies and procedures which were developed from ground zero, as Sprint PCS was merely a fledgling start up company at the time. My past managers and employers have commented that my work was "dead on accurate" and "consistently submitted well before the required deadline." One such manager, with an advanced degree in journalism, remarked that my "spelling and grammar were impeccable” and thanked me for "going above and beyond the call on a daily basis to ensure the work was completed well before the deadline". A former professor had this to say when I informed him about my venture into this field: “Joe may be relatively new to elancing, but he is a highly skilled writer with a meticulous eye for detail and an outstanding knowledge of English grammar, usage, and style. I hold a Ph.D. in linguistics from Harvard University and have served as a professor in that field at schools including Northwestern, Carnegie Mellon, and the University of Arizona. I would have complete confidence in hiring Joe for virtually any writing project whatsoever.” I am not sure if the following information carries any weight or not, but I grew up in an environment whereby if I made any grammatical errors when speaking, I was immediately corrected by either one of my parents or my brother. My sibling also started teaching me Spanish when I was 7 years old. My father now consults, writes, and delivers speeches internationally. In other words, I could not get away with making any mistakes whatsoever. That sure was a fun childhood! My bid is based on the requirements you outlined and I can have the project ready for you no later than 1 day from the time the bid is accepted. My time will be dedicated to your project alone, so I guarantee that the work will be completed to the highest of standards and with the utmost professionalism. Thank you once again for considering me for this project, and I look forward to working with you if accepted as your service provider. Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact me via email or my cell phone, both of which are listed at the top of this page.

I am a published professional U.S. writer and editor. I write and edit all genres of fiction and non-fiction. I have publication credentials which include the following three books as samples ~ Perceptions: The Potentate / Between Life and Language / Retrograde. These books can be looked up online or purchased at booksellers worldwide (Retrograde is soon to be published). I will do your job with the utmost precision and care. I just finished editing a novel of a little over 100,000 words for $400. My rate for your required level of proofing is $1.25 per 250 words, hence, $25 for 20 articles of 250 words each (couldn't bid less than 30 in box). I do only exceptional and publishable quality work. I actually teach writing and editing, so I know how to make language excel. I also write and edit a daily posted online blog which I have been doing for over three years now.

Although this is my first bid on this site, I am quite an acomplished writer, and a bit of a perfectionist with my work. I could probably complete this in less than 2 days, although I have allowed extra time to double check the articles before submitting them as complete. Thank you in advance for considering my bid for this work.
