Hello, I am looking for a proofreader and editor who can proofread and edit my ebooks and articles and improve their quality. I am not just looking for a quick proofread - where one can basically just skim trough the content and correct just some grammar mistakes and leaving the rest. I am looking for someone who will take my content, read it, correct any grammars, concepts, the flow of things, remove repeated content, rewrite sections which do not make sense without loosing any "beef" material (so to speak) and overall improve the quality and flow of the content. I have material that was written by non native English speakers of which the English can be arguable considered below average and include filler/repeated words which need to be removed. Obviously, my content should not be discarded entirely but the right spot found between retaining existing content/ideas and rewriting/editing/proofreading to given it a boost in quality without having to do the work from scratch. I have lot of ongoing work (years worth of work) and this can be a great opportunity for the ideal person who is looking for a long term relationship. To get started I have the below content on a health condition: - 8k eBook - 25 articles - approx 400words each - 23.5k words recipes book - most of the words are ingredients/single words thus they are already good. the methods should be proofread, however. - 700words ebook - 9k ebook I will show you the content before bid acceptance so that you can accurately place your bid. Note: only native english speakers with great english will be considered for this job. thank you jo

Hi Jo! I’m Deborah and a native English speaker. I’ll be very happy to edit + proofread + rewrite your texts for you, so they are in proper, idiomatic English, their quality is enhanced, they have a greater sense of flow and are engaging for readers. I am an experienced and professional editor/proofreader with high-level English skills and an eagle-eye for the tiniest details. Based my understanding of the nuances of the English language and sensitivity to a writer’s intentions, I love doing the sort of in-depth editing you are talking about. My work makes my clients happy. I propose 21 days for this so there is time for us to Chat via Freelancer as well as for me to work thoroughly and carefully on this group of texts. The prospect of a long-term working relationship is very appealing to me! You can see samples of my work in Track Changes in my Freelancer Profile Portfolio. Query: • You don’t say if the texts are in UK or US English? I got 100% for US English, but I’m equally happy with UK English. • Would you like to see/check each text, before I do its final proofread? Regards, Deborah

Hi Jo and thank you for the details you provided in your project description. My price is probably too high for you. I have based it on the total number of words in the books and articles you listed. I am an experienced proofreader/copy editor of about 10 years and much of my work involves rewriting material written by non-native speakers of English. I have been on the Freelancer platform for nearly three years and all my reviews are good ones. I am a native speaker of English.

"Obviously, my content should not be discarded entirely but the right spot found between retaining existing content/ideas and rewriting/editing/proofreading to given it a boost in quality without having to do the work from scratch." I understand completely. Once the spelling and grammar are taken care of, it would be nice if the document actually flows well and makes sense; relaying the author's full intent. I am perfectly capable to help you. The long term aspect of this project inspires my low bid, to allow you an opportunity to review my work. It seems this is the lion's share of the work I have done in recent years, and I can assure you my interest is genuine, as will be my dedication to accomplishing a quality document for you. I would be happy to look at one of your documents and edit/review it, gratis, prior to award. Please consider my interest in your project. I thank you in advance for your consideration.

If you need an eagle-eye for grammar, spelling and flow for your academic or business writing, look no further. I will quickly edit and proofread your text, making it grammatically perfect, reader-friendly and without losing your personal voice. My preference is to work with MS Word documents and use the Track Changes feature so that you can see exactly what changes I've recommended. However, if you prefer other file formats, that's no problem.

I also prefer long-term and repeat work. I am an experienced line editor so while grammar, spelling and punctuation are important, I actually go beyond that as I notice that at times, I have to edit out and Ghostwrite some parts of the content for the clients. Due to this, I do not charge cheaper rates as what clients receive in the end is a clear, concise copy. I send 2 copies back. One with tracked changes and one clean copy. My recent reviews speak of my work. Once I see the individual content pieces and the work involved, I will provide 2 things to you. 1. A quote based on my estimation of rework required, BUT still retaining the essence of the work. 2. Exact timeframe and I do deliver on time. If you wish to view samples, let me know. Thank you.

If you send out material that is riddled with misspellings, grammatical errors, and wrong information, you aren’t going to be presenting a good image of your business. Let’s get that content in tip-top shape today. I’m from the US with a BA degree and I’m a native English speaker. I am a highly-skilled writer who has strong visual awareness, exemplary grammar and spelling knowledge, and the ability to analyze and modify.

"Hi, An experienced and skilled writer with impeccable grammar skill, strong visual awareness, and insists on spelling perfection, you can rest assured that anytime I edit, proofread, and analyze a document of any size it will be returned in tip-top shape and free from errors. Grammatical perfection is a necessity in a finished document, and I will analyze, modify, revise, and reword as necessary so you will be left with a superior finished product. I also do all my editing, proofing, and rewriting manually without the use of any online rewriting programs. When quality counts, contact me. Best regards, Hoffman"

Editing involves a proactive editor making changes and suggestions that will improve the overall quality of your writing, particularly in relation to language use and expression. Each and every editing & proofreading task you need to select the right person to fix the grammatical errors. I have years of experience & extensive skills to confirm excellent grammatical proficiency in your text. Editing also involves the ‘proofreading’ of your document, with spelling, grammar and other language errors eliminated. Editing ensures that your writing gives the impression that the English language comes naturally to you, even if it does not. After editing, your language will be sharp and consistent, your expression clear and the overall readability of your writing enhanced. As a professional freelance writer, I’m very much experienced in Editing/Proofreading & Rewriting. Please feel free to knock me for further discussion. Regards, Xavier Bruce
