With a track record of preparing content for print, your ebooks will be in good hands. I have edited the content of two long training manuals (including a complicated table of contents) and multiple short reports and papers. My reputation is of quality and on-time work; I am capable of working to a hard deadline. I would begin work on your ebooks by first reviewing the content to determine your style and voice, so that I can maintain these attributes while editing. I would also review the current state of the content, i.e. what areas need the most attention. When I start editing, I start with the whole document first, consider organization and flow, and then work on the details.

I was ready to bid $12 per hour, but it won't let me bid less than $15. I will proofread your book line by line using "tracking changes" in Microsoft Word. I will add comments to ask you questions and make you clarify. I will have a set of content notes in TXT format that will critique plot, story line, characters, and make general and specific comments about your writing and how to improve it. I am able to provide past work and references, if you'd like. When I edit, I not only proofread the book, but I also provide the author with content notes that discuss suggested changes in regard to characters, plot, themes, story lines, and such. I hold two master's degrees and am an experienced editor. I have written three peer reviewed books, the latest to be published in June, and many other publications, all of which I proofread extensively before sending for publication. I have been an indexer for the journal "Provenance: The Journal of the Society of Georgia Archivists" since 2003. I have also provided the professional level indexing for all of my books. From 2002-2007 I owned and operated Cantadora Press and did all the editing and proofreading for all the books, pamphlets, and journal issues we published. From 2008-2010, I taught college-level American history courses and spent a lot of my time teaching my students how to write properly, including: grammar, punctuation, spelling, style, and diction. Their semester-long projects entailed many drafts of paragraphs and larger sections before final submittal. Now that I own an editing business and have worked with freelancing sites like oDesk, Elance, Freelancer, and Guru, I have edited multiple books, articles, and Web sites for content. I have always delivered excellent quality editing for a great price. I deliver my product in the time limit specified in the contract. In the past few months I have edited two vampire romance novels, a werewolf romance novel, a western based in Wyoming that has a Kung Fu twist, a futuristic sci-fi thriller, an exercise manual, a technical manual for doing computer forensics, two family counseling case studies books, an eBook on how to do SEO, a master's thesis on the smartphone industry, a Medieval history textbook, a church history book, a western novel, a forex trading ebook, two ebooks about dealing with creditors and credit bureaus (from different authors), a medical treatise, a heart-wrenching autobiography, a conference report on international relations, an ebook on the credit bureaus and how to conquer them, and a short crime fiction ebook. I have great skills and no one can edit for grammar, spelling, punctuation, capitalization, or style like I can. I have also edited technical ebooks on the future of cell phones and on the tablet industry. I have also edited websites and smaller jobs like sales letters, cover letters, and brochures. I am a native US English speaker. I feel that my twenty plus years of experience editing and proofreading my own projects and those of others make me an ideal candidate for your freelance editor position. You will find others with perhaps lower bids for this project. Many of those will be either non-native English speakers or editors with little education and experience in editing. I am a native speaker (US) and I have the education and experience you want in order to deliver you the best possible editing job. I hope you will consider me for this position and hire me. I can get started right away and my dependability means we can work together for a long time.

Hi Upsidemarketing, I am a very thorough person who does not leave room for unnecessary mistakes. My first step at proofreading your 30-page e-book is to print them out first as reading on the screen can give eyestrain. I relax over some cups of orange juice and begin the reading which, of course, sets me in the mood of reading. When I am through, any necessary correction will sure be made on the paper and later made on the original work on my pc. Same applies to the other pages. These are the things I do almost everyday that I have mastered it like breathing. Thakns in advance.

Hi! I'm a native English speaker (American, but familiar with UK English if that's what you prefer) with a keen eye for detail and a natural skill and passion for editing. I hold a B.A. in English with an emphasis on creative writing, as well as a dual major in history. I'm also currently working on my M.A. thesis in history. As you can imagine, most of my time is spent researching, writing, and editing, and I am both skilled and experienced enough that even my professors ask for my help with editing their own professional papers. I can do this project quickly, efficiently, and accurately, giving you the results you need at the price you want. As for how I would approach this project, first I would read through the two smaller ebooks, then the longer one, without making anything but spelling corrections initially. I want to have an idea what you're saying before I start making stylistic changes. Once I've got a good grasp on the material, I'll go back through and very carefully re-read everything, looking first for spelling or grammar errors, then for stylistic problems that I can fix. I do most of my editing using Word's comments and review feature so that you can see what I've changed or suggested changing, but if you'd prefer, I could just go ahead and make the corrections in the original copy. Once the content has been polished and I know everything is in the right order, I'll go about making the table of contents.

You have one ebook 35 pages long and one approximately 15 pages long. I write my own ebooks as well in Microsoft Word. I am a U.S. citizen with a great command of the English language. I can add some quality enhancements to your ebooks to make them look professional. Adding a table of contents, footer, etc. will not be a problem. If there is not a graphic for the title page, we can add that as well. I sell my ebooks on a site set up under the "plr" umbrella. Don't know if you have this, but I can help you set that up as well (separate cost for that).

Probably the most effective way to finish this job is to open up the smaller documents first. I can probably read over both of them, have the necessary corrections made, and a TOC developed for them before lunch, if they're only 15 pages each, and of course the time estimate could vary based on the technical difficulty of the subject matter. By the time I've blasted through those two, I will be familiar with your structure and writing style well enough to finish the work before 5 p.m. If I can start early enough, I may be able to get your books ready for you on the same day, but I should at least have them back in your inbox by the following morning. I'm curious to know about the subject matter though. Technical writing or instruction manuals will slow me down a bit, since I'll need to cross-reference your facts and terminology to make sure the book is accurate, but if all I'm fixing is grammar and spelling, I could wrap that up in a day or less with no problem.

Dear Sir I have seen your project requirement and i think if you wants to edit book in word that is quite easy and for your question related to reference inside the document i can use "Table of Contents and Cross Reference" option that can serve your purpose of navigation inside your book.
