Copy editor for post-apocalyptic serial (20K)

$30-250 USD

$30-250 USD

Pagado a la entrega
I need a copy editor for a 19K+ word fictional post-apocalyptic serial. I'm up against a tight deadline and budget, so speed is of the essence. The work is original fiction for an adult market featuring zombies. If you have any qualms about editing work with violence, adult language, or graphic descriptions--this is not for you. The work has already been "beta" read by four writers so the level of spelling and grammar mistakes is not egregious. I will ask for a 1K sample edit before money exchanges hands, so that we both feel comfortable with the styles involved. Deadline is 7 days from receipt of materials.

Hello, I have been an editor for seven years and have edited everything from books to movie scripts. The "post-ap" genre is one of my favorites so I would thoroughly enjoy editing this book. I can have it back to you within three days, fully edited. I hope that I can help you with this project. Best of luck with your book!

I have worked in the publishing industry for over 20 years. I have been working specifically as a copy editor / proofreader for many of those years. English is my native language. I work on articles, short stories, and full-length manuscripts. I freelance regularly for two very well-known American publishing houses as well as for individual authors as a freelance copy editor and would bring the same focus, drive, and experience to your work. Thank you for the opportunity to work with you.

I believe my skill set is uniquely suited to your project. I am an avid zombie fan . . . from the old classics like "Night of the Living Dead" to TV series such as "The Walking Dead" ( the comic/ graphic novel version is also fantastic) and "Survivors" (a short lived British series that I very much recommend)I am well versed in the genre. I have just finished editing/critiquing a novel for someone else here on Freelancer (the second for which he has hired me, and he has asked me to go over a third manuscript this week). I hold a Bachelor's degree in English from the University of British Columbia and have many years of proofreading and editing experience. I have worked as a marker for a number of college and university professors in both the English and Study Skills Departments. I have also worked as a private tutor for both high school and university students. My work is meticulous and exacting. If you value such traits, then I may be a good fit for your project. I look forward to hearing from you.

I am interested in this editing position. I have caught many editing mistakes in books while reading them. I am a horror fanatic so your genre does not bother or upset me. I would love to read another good horror book and get paid while doing so!

I am a recent university graduate with degrees in Anthropology and Psychology, as well as an honors certificate. I have experience with writing, as I just completed an honors thesis, which was a historical fiction novel using Word. I had to go through rounds and rounds of editing and revising, so I feel very comfortable in providing this service to you. Not only have I proofread and edited my own work with a meticulous eye, but I have done the same with several of my friends for their academic work. In addition to the honors thesis I am in the process of publishing my own first novel, so I understand the importance of accuracy and efficiency when it comes to time frames and deadlines. In that way I feel that I would be a good fit for this job. Beyond my knowledge of writing and my skills at Word I am a hardworking and efficient worker. I always strive to do the best job possible in everything I do. My profile also has added information about me. I am available to start right away and I can complete the sample copy edit if you would like me too. As far as payment goes, my bid is for $80, but the price is somewhat negotiable. Please let me know any other important details of the job. Thank you for the opportunity to bid on this job and I hope to hear from you soon.

I love gory zombie stories! This could be my first job on this site, but I edit full-time for a living, so I know my way around words.

I write and edit for an adventure travel website, and have been editing academic writings for many years. Many of my favorite contemporary works are post apocalyptic, and it is a genre I am intimately familiar with. I am new to this site, so I don't have any feedback yet, but I am confident I can deliver high quality work within a tight time frame.
