Description

Hi,

I need a proofreader with an excellent eye for detecting spelling errors/grammar and other errors. I have lots of articles (around 300 for this project) and I suggest a fee around 0.5$ for proofreading one article between 400-600 word count. The price can go higher or lower depending on your skills.

All my writers are good writes but I wont lie you , some articles are low quality and they require a bit of work. I would also like my proofreader to take responsibility of suggesting which writer to let go in case his quality is poor as I believe in keeping a small group of quality writers whose work needs minimum proofreading.

I am not here to burden you with low quality work and expect you to turn it into a masterpiece. I only expect you to read my articles and correct any typo/spelling/grammar/logic mistake made inadvertently by writer. Those writers who consistently make errors will be removed on basis of your recommendation.

So I would like a proofreader who is native English speaker with masters in English or similar qualifications and guarantee that no error can be found in his/her proofread article. When I say no
errors I really mean no errors.

The payment will made via PayPal/GAF every 50 articles, weekly and in some cases if you need money I can pay you right away but only if you are reliable and professional.

I am fine with your budget of .50 per article. I am an experienced administrative assistant, copyeditor, proofreader, typesetter, and designer, in addition to having many years of experience in an office setting (data entry, accounts payable/receivable, spreadsheets, billing, etc.). My ex-husband and I have been running our own graphic design and publishing business, Vinci-Designs & Publishing since 2005. For the past 4 years, I have been freelance copyediting and proofreading for Idea Group Publishing, Pinnacle Health Care, University Press, and many others. I have also assisted several companies doing administrative tasks, proofreading, data entry, billing, etc. I am currently working part-time for an NFL sports writer as a personal assistant researching information and photos for articles, setting up interviews, transcribing interviews, and uploading articles to online sites and blogs. Due to the current economic downturn, my workflow with our business has slowed down considerably. I am looking to almost dissolve our business and find work elsewhere. Prior to starting our business, I held a full-time position as a copyeditor/editorial assistant for Idea Group Publishing in Hershey, Pennsylvania, where I was employed for more than two years until my relocation to Florida in 2005. I am a very hard worker, dedicated to any job I set out to do. I have a great eye for detail and believe strongly in being an honest and fair person. Dependability is a very hard trait to come by for both part-time workers and freelancers and I strive to exceed your expectations for any project I set out to accomplish. I look forward to hearing from you, if not now, in the future. Thank you so much for your time. Larissa Vinci

Hello, I would like to bid for this project. I am willing to undertake this project for a payment of 30$ for 50 articles. I'm excellent in English and I have won the college trust certificate for merit in the English language. I have also done proofreading and editing work for my college magazine as well as designed a page for the local newspaper. I also have a blog in which I post regularly. You can gauge my grammar and English skills by reading it. Here is a link to an article from my blog which was later published by me in the college magazine. http://fooddrinkandlife.blogspot.com/2009/06/is-this-what-we-have-become.html Thank you and have a nice day.
