I would like to hire a professional editor to edit my novel. The story is approximately 30,000 words and is in the Action/Adventure genre. I have reviewed the story 3 times already and am happy with my edits, but would like a professional eye to look at the manuscript. I am interested in hiring an editor who is able to do a full edit, including copyediting. Ideally, I am looking to pay between $200-$300 for this work. I have attached the prologue below, if you are interested. Thank you.

Hi Euan, Thank you for the opportunity to bid on your project. I am an Australian writer and editor living in Adelaide. I have more than 15 years editing experience, across all genres. I had a look at your prologue and it is good. I could see a few places I could help tighten up the language. The process I use is track changes in word and I will make comments in areas I think can help you or for you to consider. Please see my portfolio (linked to my profile) and what others say about me. I invite you to open a conversation with me to discuss your requirements. I work using the freelancer.com milestone payment system. This system protects both of us while we work together and allows mutual reviews to build reputations. Good luck with your project. Kind regards kym

Hello and thank you for attaching a sample of your book. From the short read you have certainly managed to instantly capture the reader's imagination, which is not an easy task. There are a number of elements which concern me as an editor and, as a consequence, I have been unable to match your stated budget as I believe there is considerably more work to be done than you may think. This is not meant to be a criticism of your work, but purely a comment coming from experience. One initial element is the shortness of the sentences. It is more fitting for an academic piece than a literary one, and as a consequence, it stops the flow and does not make the text so easy and smooth to read. There are a number of unnecessary repetitions of 'information' and thus the text does need editing from that angle as well. I would be glad to send you an edited version of the text you have provided so that you can see more clearly what I am talking about and what you could expect from my editing services. I do not see this as a 'job' purely to go through the text and correct obvious errors, but also to polish the text and make it as easy to read as such a compelling story deserves. Although from the UK, I am used to working with American English text and aside from that, I hope my feedback and overall reputation would assure you that you are in good hands. I only do the work myself so you will always find me swift to respond and easy to communicate with. Kind Regards David Dundas

When I work, my first priority is to ensure that my clients are fully satisfied. I manage to do this by putting a strong emphasis on the key points of the subject I am given. No one wants to read flat information, they want something that attracts their attention and shows that a lot of thought, expertise and care has gone into it. I don't work to just create any kind of copy. I work to create content that fits in with the specific needs that my clients have. I want to create content that is professional in appearance while also making a business look more attractive to an average consumer.

Hi, I'm Rohan and I'm ideally suited for this project. I believe I can really help you fine tune your novel, as I have experience with writing novels and short stories that have been published by journals and magazines, and also because I have worked with Publishing Houses like Penguin Random House, and several reputed magazines, as an Editor. As such I have a lot of industry experience about how to edit and proofread so as to catch the minutest of details. Additionally, I can also help you enhance the few of your writing, as in its present form the sentences feel just a little disjointed. My services include: Editing in any style UK/ US. I make sure that there are no grammatical or spelling errors. I work on the sentence structure and word usage. Make sure there is language consistence Correct 'technical' errors Run a fact check for anything verifiable online As per industry standards I use 'TrackChanges' in MSWord so you have the option to verify all the changes made. I also offer a running commentary in separate comment bubbles, explaining the 'heavier' edits. (OPTIONAL) And anything else that may come up.

Hi, I am a professional writer and full time freelancer with a background in management and marketing. My specialty is writing high end content for websites, articles, marketing pieces and so on. I have also written an adventure thriller (not published) and I have done editing and proofreading on a large number of books, both fiction and non-fiction – as well as mentoring budding writers. Because I enjoy editing immensely, I do not charge my full rate for those tasks. Part of the payback for me is the pleasure I get from reading the works. So I will charge you just $250 if that is acceptable. On your part, you need to allow me a full week so that I can slot it into my fairly busy schedule. I can send you each chapter as I have completed it, or a number of chapters – whatever works best for us. You may request as many revisions as you want for no extra charge. The way I work is to read the entire book first to get a proper feel for the style, plot, flow, structure, characterizations and so on, making notes as I go. Then I send you those notes for your comments and feedback. At that point, I take each chapter in turn and start the editing process. Let me know if you are interested. Best wishes, Dan

I have used her for editing my manuscript for three drafts. I highly recommend her if you need your work done professionally and on time!” “I loved Krystal! I would love to work with her again!

Writing is an art. Besides a clear command of all aspects of the language, my impeccable writing is largely fuelled by an insatiable passion and love for the written word. I think this is what gives me an edge over many other writers, who might be at the same level with me, or with an even better grasp of the English language. I am a self driven writer, with a knack for comprehensive research on any subject that I write on. I also have an innate ability to borrow ideas from different sources and owning them, by polishing and making them original. I can write on a wide scope of subjects, according to the instructions and requirements of the task at hand. At the moment I am searching for writing work. with my smooth command of the language, throw into the mix, my passion and self drive, and right here, you have the ultimate choice of the writer you have been looking for. I AM AS GOOD AS THEY COME AND WILL NEVER DISAPPOINT. Regards Sana

Welcome! I've checked your description very carefully, and I believe I would be just the right candidate for proofreading your manuscript. Why? Because I have 7+ years of professional academic proofreading/editing experience, and also because I have a keen eye for small errors that others might not spot right away. Is this all? Nope. My previous employers (now my brothers in arms) have consistently characterized me as an intuitive, reliable, decisive and immensely flexible personality. BUT do not take my word for it. Check their feedbacks for yourself. Also, please check my PORTFOLIO for sample items to help guide you my way. I promise you this: You will need NOT go anywhere else for editing and proofreading ever again after trying me out. Interested? Let's talk. I do not bite! ?
