Hello! I am a native English speaker, and I have recently completed my Master's in English language and literature. I have two years of experience teaching academic writing at the university level, and three years of experience working as a freelance editor proofreader. I would be able to copy-edit and proofread your book within four days. I will also, if you would like, comment on its flow and development. I would make basic changes using the "track changes" feature of MS word, and use the "comments" feature for more substantial commentary. If you have any questions, or if you would like to see a sample of my work, please do not hesitate to ask. I look forward to speaking with you soon =)

Hi, I am a professional editor and proofreader with experience in a variety of genres. I am a native speaker of English and my spelling, punctuation and grammar skills are excellent. I also have a degree in English Literature, which has given me the skills to study the content for things like inconsistencies, gaps in development etc., if required. I would use the track changes feature in Word so you can see any adjustments made. Editing is something that I really enjoy doing, it doesn't feel like a job! Please see my feedback and contact me if you would like any more information. Best regards, Georgina.

I've been a freelance writer, copy editor and ghost writer for over 15 years and I honestly highly doubt you'll find anyone more qualified or capable than I. I will also put my skills where my mouth is and be more than happy to submit a one-page sample to you, so please feel free to send me one page of the manuscript so you can see my work. If you don't review my work and say, "holy cow, this guy is good" you don't have to hire me :-) Have a great day!

Hello, Greetings! I am very interested in editing your 55,000 word copy. With over eight (8) years of solid experience in content writing and development (five years of which as a full time freelance writer), my track record speaks for itself. Writing is more than just cleverly arranging and polishing words. It is a serious job that requires passion, dedication, love for the written word, and respect for the client. As a buyer and a business owner, I know you deserve to get the best content for the advancement of your professional and business endeavors. Believe me, inexperienced people can only aspire to produce quality content. Beware of those people who charge very little, they may also give you less than your expectations. I invite you to review my samples in my Portfolio section. I included a rich variety of works, which include articles, web content, e-books, white papers, reports, and many more. If you are looking for a specific work, please let me know so I can send more samples. If you have questions, please contact me anytime. RODOLFO LENTEJAS, JR. Rudi

If you want your book proofread to perfection, put me on the job! :-) I'm an experienced proofreader, and as you can see if you pass your mouse over the "ENG" badges below, I have a 100% freelancer.com rating for both US and UK English, which means I'm likely to spot errors that others will miss (for the best impression on your readers, you can't afford to have errors). I'm not based in your target countries; I'm an Australian citizen, but as you probably know, we officially use British English over here, so working with your book won't be a problem. If you'd like a demonstration before accepting my bid, feel free to message me a couple of paragraphs of content (especially if it's content you've had "proofread" on freelancer.com in the past), and I'll do my best to impress you. Or just message me any questions you may have. Cheers.

As an online editor, I understand how important communication between clients is, as well as the utmost need for a professional and reliable work ethic. I have over 8 years experience working professionally with editorial content. In particular, I have edited news content, academic articles, promotional material, and more. I am based in the United Kingdom and would be happy to provide you with my phone number to facilitate any further communication. My success is based on your 100% satisfaction. As such, I aim to ensure you are completely satisfied with any editing project. Having written books myself, I understand as an author how important it is to find someone who can edit your work without changing your voice as the original author. I bear this in mind when editing anything. Please feel free to contact me to discuss this opportunity further. I would be happy to provide editing samples and / or testimonials from previous clients should you require this. With best wishes, Susan R-B
