Congratulations on finishing your book. Hi, I’m Bella, a professional copy-editor from New Zealand. I have enjoyed working with budding and experienced authors. I have worked with a lot of content written by people for whom English is a second language. For long books, I like to work them chapter/section by section so I get a feel for how much editing you are looking for and to ensure that both parties are happy. To reflect this I have set the price up in several milestones to represent checkpoints. Project bid price is $275. Turn-around time is 15 days. Books I have proofread include: - ‘Roots: Memoirs of two cities’ by Collin Chee, - Two of the ‘Single and Blessed’ series by Rebecca Kay, and - ‘Dongbeihua: The Dialect of North-East China’ by Dennis Behnke. I look forward to hearing from you. Bella

Hi. Although I live in Brazil, I´m an American editor and proofreader, a native English speaker with excellent language skills and years of experience at correcting and improving books and other texts. I can use Word´s Track Changes to correct grammar, spelling, punctuation and sentence structure, and offer comments and suggestions for improving what you´ve written without interfering in your own personal writing style. I have worked on several similar jobs this year alone, and I´d be happy to send you samples of previous work or do a sample proofread on 1-2 pages of your choice to demonstrate the quality of my work. I can proofread your book for €250, and suggest delivery in 30-40 days. The reason for this extra time is that I offer a 2nd revision as part of this price - this means that after you send me your text, I do a first draft of corrections with questions and comments and send this to you - you look it over, answer any questions or make adjustments, and return it to me for a final revision. This method guarantees better quality than just a once-through revision, and my clients are always more pleased by the results of this technique. Please contact me for further discussion, and I hope to help you polish your manuscript for publication. Best, David
