Hello,
My name is Filip and I have a MA in English Language and Literature. I do not want to bore you with my qualifications, so I am just going to tell you what I can offer to you and hopefully that will be what you are looking for.
First of all, communication. Without good communication, these types of tasks are often doomed to fail. You expect one thing out of my editing/reviewing, I do what I am trained to do and disregard your creative input and we've got ourselves into a problem.
Needless to say, spelling, punctuation and grammar would be properly checked and edited. But many of the freelancers here could provide you with that. I think that I would be able to give useful tips, insights and advice on your novel. (e.g. character development, flaws in the story if there are any, pinpointing weaker parts and enhancing them). What I would NOT do is mess with or go against your creative (I am a writer as well, and I know how it feels when others try to make your vision their own)
Although I am 100% confident in my grammar editing skills, I will admit that there is one
aspect I am not always 100% right about - I sometimes use British English instead of American, BUT since you are a native I do not suppose that should be a problem. The second thing is that I am completely straightforward and honest and if you do not want any criticism, I am not a person you should hire.
I am friendly, and communicative and if you think I could help you, please do contact me
Kind regards,
F.
