Hi there, I am looking for an experienced proofreader and editor to help me edit my novel before I pitch it to a literary agent. At the moment, I am guessing that it is going to be between 60,000 and 70,000 words. However, to save myself money, I would much rather that we do it bit by bit. I would be grateful if you could, therefore, advice me of your price per 5000 words. Once I have found an editor that fits my needs, I will continue to work with them on a regular basis and I am interested in a long-term partnership. Please also note that although I am interested in making it as affordable as I can, I will not chose price over quality. I would rather pay a little bit more and get someone who is experienced and skilled. The novel is set during WWII but there is no need for historical understanding. The novel is written in UK English and although I am not an expert, I imagine that it would just involve tweaking grammar, spelling and checking for any story inconsistencies.

Hi there, Hope you are doing great! I will professionally proofread and edit your novel. Your document will be handled professionally and read over and over to ensure nothing is missed out. I check and correct; spellings, grammar, punctuation, consistency, readability, incorrect word usages, poor sentence structure, tenses, spacing etc. I am happy to simply proofread (catch errors), but I also enjoy in-depth editing, which involves improving readability, offering suggestions and restructuring when necessary. Please check some of my previous proofreading and editing projects: https://www.freelancer.com/projects/proofreading/english-language-proof-reading/reviews https://www.freelancer.com/projects/english-us/Project-for-Arif-20287852/details https://www.freelancer.com/projects/articles/Proof-Read-Edit-Commercial-Proposal/details https://www.freelancer.com/projects/article-rewriting/Rewrite-Professional-Article/reviews As I'm a perfectionist, you can expect the most professional work and I always deliver on time.

**I am a graduate of Cambridge Univ. (Christ's College); and a professional editor of compositions, books, screenplays, theses, term papers, etc. I am willing to work with you and teach you a bit about professional writing on a long-term basis. Hi, I am an ELITE BOOK EDITOR and PROOFREADER who will take great care in editing your MANUSCRIPT-IN-PROGRESS. As a book editor, I go DEEP into the CHARACTERS, PLOT (or NON-fiction THEME). Sometimes I serve as a “DEVELOPMENTAL EDITOR” (10+ years’ experience), which involves suggesting IMPROVEMENTS to CHARACTERS, CHAPTER FLAWS, and PLOT/THEME DEFICIENCIES (if any) and pointing out MISSING ELEMENTS the author may not know are MISSING. The end result will be a flawless manuscript of which you can be very PROUD. My rate is US$0.008 per word. Negotiable. Let's chat. SKILLS: Fast and accurate. VERSATILE | COMPETENT | DILIGENT. Here is my LATEST ** REVIEW** from a BOOK/MOVIE SCRIPT I EDITED in AUGUST 2019: “BJ worked on Professional Editing and Proofreading work for my Fiction Novel. BJ was very exciting to work with, he is a person full of energy and enthusiasm. BJ critiqued and edited the manuscript based on errors in the story, plot, character design, narrative pacing, background details, logical errors, readability, use of words, missing narrative and a lot more. BJ's expertise has made the manuscript publication-ready under a low budget. I Will hire him again. " ~ Kunal D.

What makes me different is that I have books that are on Amazon already and I have experience proofreading thesis and books for my former University students. I will work with your budget and I will also pay extreme attention to detail. Therefore, the 150 would be for me to proofread and make any changes up to 5000 words. I look forward to hearing from you. By the way, I'm a Native English Speaker from Canada and understand the UK way of writing as its the same in my country as well.

Hi! I'm a creative writer, professional proofreader and editor, and native English speaker. I understand you're going to want both of these skills here; fair enough. Take a look at my feedback and writing samples on my profile if you need to know more. (Quoted price is for 5,000 words, naturally, as requested; quoted time is also for the same. Note that editing in 5,000-word chunks is convenient, but disallows for large-scale storyline editing for when a scene doesn't work in context of the larger story, or when a scene should be added for the same reason.) --David

Thank you for considering me for the position of editor/proofreader on this project. I currently am an on-call editor for an international career assistance company, nationwide radio show, and a London business entrepreneur. Additionally, I recently edited a science fiction novella, articles for publication by CNN and USA Today, and a mystery novel. And as an editor, I can make suggestions for your writing to make it more cohesive, engaging and successful. If you would like to "try before you buy", I will be happy to do a complimentary edit/proof of a small piece of your work so that you may judge the quality of my work. I am a native of the United States, and I currently am living in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, where I find writing and editing on my laptop at the beach a perfect environment for my creativity. Although my main editing English is American, I have also studied both the UK and Australian English and understand the differences in grammar, usage, and slang. If you are looking for 100% accuracy, not only in grammar and spelling but also with clarity and comprehension, then I am also your man. I have an English & a Communications degree from Southern Methodist University in Dallas, TX. I communicate internationally at ease with my US Vonage telephone, WhatsApp and of course, by email. Contact me today. I would love an opportunity to show you how I can meet and surpass the needs of this job.
