Bid On This Project
 

Description

I recently wrote a book and need someone to edit it. I'm looking for someone who is proficient in the English language. I need someone who can edit it for grammar, punctuation. This is not a job for a beginner. I'm currently working on my second book and if I am pleased with your work on my first book, I'm sure we can continue to do business together. The book I need edited is 750 pages and is created in Word format so you must have the software to edit it. I need to have this project turned around in 4 weeks from the date of this posting. Please provide your experience in this field when applying.

Hello - I am a freelance editor/translator working out of Ottawa, Canada. I am a university-educated native English speaker with 20+ years of work experience. Most recently I edited a published book on enterprise architecture. You can read the review for my work on this site. I would be pleased to provide editing services for you. My rate would be $600 or .5 cents per word, whichever is lower. I would have no problem meeting your timeframe. I look forward to the possibility of working with you.

Hello there I have read your job posting and would very much like to be considered for this project. I am presently proofreading/editing for another company via this website (see my profile/feedback) and looking for more work of the same kind. I have many years office experience, fast and accurate keyboard skills, and always pay great attention to detail. Part of my last job with a large internet property portal involved proofreading the weekly newsletter and other site content prior to it going live on the website so I understand the need for total accuracy. If you choose my bid I would ask you to send me your book saved as a Word 2003 document. I can then proofread/edit it with Track Changes on so that you can see what changes have been made when finalising the document. I would be able to complete this for you within your specified time frame of 4 weeks. I would ask that you make 2 payments via the milestone payment feature and release one payment in advance and the other on completion of the document. I am Scottish (English is my native language), living in Spain, and typically online from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday to Friday GMT +1. I am contactable via email or Skype. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you require any further information. I look forward to hearing from you. Kind regards Diane Brown

My bid for the total cost of your project and the number of days it will take to complete it is negotiable. Once I see how well you write, and you see the amount of time a typical number of pages takes for me to edit, we can renegotiate the amount you will pay me for the project. I am not only a picky editor, but I also am a stickler for excellent writing. I hope that your intention is to have an open relationship with your editor where communication is encouraged. I have extensive experience editing both academic and creative writing. I have worked with other graduate students while I received my master's degree and proof-read and edited many manuscripts from other writers in my creative writing group. I am excited to hear about your book, and welcome you to contact me at any time to discuss the project.
