I have carefully read your project description and I strongly believe that I can help you in this important proofreading/editing project. I have participated in a great number of creative writing, rewriting, proofreading, editing and copy-editing tasks for years. However, I'm positive that this job requires a lot of attention on the editor's part, along with possessing a broad experience, both in general and creative writing. I'm not only a copy editor but an EFL teacher as well; a fact that enables me to use the English language efficiently and accurately. I fully understand that you need an expert in editing and proofreading. I'm also aware of the fact that clients not only need someone to detect errors, but also look for a professional writer who can efficiently change the structure of sentences and get the whole text remolded, whenever needed. It'd be a pleasure to help you get this project perfectly done within deadline. Kindly, check my portfolio for more credentials and authentic samples showing my style in proofreading. Kind regards, Amelie Heill

I can ensure that your book is improved in quality so it reads like natural English. Editing is something that I really enjoy doing, it doesn't feel like a job!

Hello! I am currently employed with the North Dakota Legislative Council as their proofreader, and I have been a proofreader/editor for almost 9 years. I am a native English speaker, and I have an in-depth knowledge of the English language and grammar. I have proofread many different types of documents. On a daily basis, I have to produce high-quality work that is not only error-free but also flows smoothly and makes sense. The majority of the work I do is seen by the public, so I have to ensure that my work is the highest quality so the author of the document maintains a good rapport with the public. I attempted to place a bid of $120 for 7 days, but it wouldn't allow me to do so because the minimum bid required is $250. I would love the opportunity to help you with your project and to show you the quality of work I can do. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to ask. Thank you in advance for your time. ~KJensen0711

Hi! I'm a freelance journalist pursuing my Master's degree from a top university. It's needless to mention that I've been professionally trained to do editorial tasks like yours with indomitable precision and efficacy. I have several former employers as alibi and my English score (US English Level 3) on this platform is amongst the best. I'm available for discussions virtually any time of the day and believe that employer satisfaction is the only befitting yardstick to measure success. I'll be looking forward to hear from you. Thanks for this opportunity.

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. Thanking you in anticipation.

Hi, What format is your book currently in (handwritten notes, typed copy, dictation)? What level of editing and proofreading do you require? Are you looking for some basic "clean-up" of grammar, spelling, punctuation and minor content for readability? I have been proofreading training manuals and freelance newspaper articles for approximately 7 years. I enjoy this type of work very much. Thank you for your consideration.

Hello, I found your 'Edit and Proof read a book on business' post and I am very interested in your project. As the admin who writes articles for his blog, you'll find I have the skills you are looking for. Please take a look at my portfolio to get an idea of the kind of articles I have written. Typically, I can edit and proofread a 53,000 word book in 10 days. I am making a proposal at your rate and terms excluding freelancer fees even though the project budget will not allow $120.00 to be entered. That is the reason why it seems I have a different amount in my proposal. I do have a few questions about the requirements and would be open to an interview. I am always online from 9.00 am - 12.30 pm and 2.30 pm - 5.30 pm daily if you would like to discuss. Otherwise, please let me know what times work for you. We can even discuss over skype if that will be more convenient for you. My goal is to make sure that you are satisfied with your project and it's delivered on time and within your budget. Thank you for your time sir. Ibrahim Abdulaziz, Articles Writer.
