Geo-pickmeup.com : human sciences & opinion blog

I created the [login to view URL] blog a few months ago, when I got back in France after working in Canada for five years. I wanted to connect my passion for human science, geography and blogging within a unique web project. I chose to write the blog in english to remain connected with an international community and be able to, latter, syndicate my articles to other significant publications. Themes and topics are working well so far (I have pretty good feedback - content is unique and has a lot of opinion/specific point of view ton), but my written english is not good enough and I still make a lot of major mistakes that prevent the content from being shared & syndicated by serious media/more readers. I need help of native english speakers to proofread, review and rewrite (if necessary) my articles. Articles are usually between 1200 and 2000 words, about maps, geography & other human sciences topics, events and conference within the geospatial industry. Everything can be found on [login to view URL] I have a small budget to get the 10 most popular post already published proofread & reviewed, then will have an other monthly budget to proofread & review new posts. Providing a feedback with types of errors & count would be much appreciated.

I skimmed a few of your postings. The first two weren't bad, but the first paragraph of "Why We Need Geographers" is awkwardly phrased and needs other work as well (e.g. it's "were", not "where"). Based on your estimated word count, I figure that comes to about 40 pages at $2 a page.

As F. Scott Fitzgerald puts it: "You don't write because you want to say something, you write because you've got something to say;" One word he omits in that is "always". I have been lucky enough to know how to always say something about nothing (sometimes) and make it sound like it's the most important thing since man's first moon landing! I have been freelancing for a while now, had a stint in print and online markets. Quality is underrated in the online world with the race to make everything Search Engine Optimizable (people cramming keywords into articles). However, my work always has that quality guaranteed stamp or I would not bother. I just wrote this passage so you can assess my language skills. I manage a team of writers so it’s a daily routine for me to proofread their work. I not only read the text from start to end but also backwards because some of the spelling mistakes which you miss out in first reading can be easily identified with this technique. While proofreading, I always read out loud. It helps me spot those areas which require my attention. I assure you there won’t be any grammar and sentence structure issues left in the text. If you desire, I can provide my prior work for your consideration. I charge, $8/hour. Please check my portfolio on Freelancer – http://www.freelancer.com/u/uzmakazmi.html Do take a look on my reviews and see what other employers have to say about me. regards Uzma

I am a professional native English speaking editor. I can make sure that your articles are free from grammatical errors and can also help with sentence structure, word choice, and flow, as necessary. You can see from my reviews that my work is very high quality. I can track my edits in word so that you can see the edits and can also provide additional feedback on the edits needed, if you like. I will deliver edited articles that will be ready to be shared and syndicated so that the most number of readers will see your ideas. Thank you for your consideration.

It would be great to work with you. Please share more details of your project so that we can start as early as possible. Also, i have read your articles and got the faults. They majorly include the lack of good and influential English writing , though they are easy, simple to understand. Secondly, one should ponder on the syntax errors too to make your articles more appealing. Looking forward for a prompt response.

Hi there, I am eclectic in my knowledge, I love to learn about new and exciting subjects, and that's why I think I am the best person for the job. Having checked out your website, firstly I'd like to say I love the presentation and the content. I have read some of your articles, and I must say that not only is rewriting my speciality, but working with you would be informative and further my learning on the subject. I am professional, precise and I relish deadlines, and I personally think that a collaboration between us would be beneficial for the both of us. I would love to be given the opportunity to show you how good my editing skills are and creatively apply them to your fantastic content. Look forward to hearing from you. Regards, Mala
