I am an English teacher, with a Master of Applied Linguistics. I have edited a number of books via this site, some of which have been published via Amazon.com. I am a native speaker of English, and as such, I will be able to provide expert editing in terms of spelling, grammar and vocabulary, as well as developmental editing in terms of characterization, plot and flow. I will use the 'track changes' feature in Microsoft Word for all editing, and I am happy to leave comments and explanations for my work as I go along, also through the 'review' options in MS Word. You will notice that my reputation on this site is excellent, and your project will be no different. Please contact me if you'd like to discuss my services any further.

Thank you for the opportunity to bid on your project. I am an academically-trained editor who, in addition to two years of PhD English Literature study, has spent the last decade working as a professional editor. My work is thorough, accurate and insightful. In addition to a line edit, I can certainly provide you with a high-level review of your manuscript, at the paragraph, chapter and book levels, identifying areas that may need to be developed further in order to maintain overall consistency as well as improve character, narrative and conceptual developments. Thank you for your consideration. I look forward to the possibility of working with you. All the best with your book project. Kind Regards, Alex

Dear Prospective Employer, I am a very well qualified copy editor with significant experience on working both with novels and non-fiction assignments. I would be delighted to hear more about this project and possibly to work with you on it. You will see from my reviews, which are uniformly warm five star endorsements, that I am well regarded by my clients. I have a strong academic background (doctorate in Modern History from Cambridge) and, unlike most of my competitors, never subcontract. I complete all assignments in person. I would be delighted to hear from you with any questions. Best wishes, Dr Alexander Craig

I am a native, professional Proofreader, rewriter and a writer. My grammar is impeccable in both UK and US English. My work is much faster and my reviews are proof of that; accuracy is guaranteed. Proofreading and editing academic articles is quite common. I get regular proofreading and rewriting assignments; my regular employers are satisfied. That is my strength. I explore and edit the following while proofreading: Orthography, Expressions, Sentence formation, Punctuation, Editing syntax, Verb-voice coordination, Use of articles, prepositions etc. The following are the type of jobs I normally do: Academic writings, Thesis, Legal documents, Constitutions, Business or Content for websites. I believe in redoing content that is not satisfactory. Expecting a positive response.

Hi, I think I may be just the experienced and professional editor you are looking for to do line and developmental editing for your manuscript. I normally work one-on-one with my clients to insure they are 100% happy with my edits. I invite you to look at my profile to read the 5 star positive feedback left by my clients and my portfolio of recently completed projects. A bit about my background: I am an experienced Copy Editor/ Writer and native English speaker with a MA in Art History from the University of St. Andrews. I regularly edit academic dissertations (for students at top institutions such as Oxford University, Sciences Po, London School of Economics and etc), legal documents, brochures, scripts, creative fiction and non-fiction novels. In addition, I freelance write for various creative print and online publications. Whilst editing, I am thorough and go beyond editing to what is grammatically correct as I believe effective writing needs to be: eloquent, concise and cohesive. I am experienced in editing and writing in both British and American English. I currently have a flexible schedule so I can dedicate time and attention to your project, I am professional and always respond to queries in a timely manner and more importantly, I am easy to work with! Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. Sincerely, Angie
