I currently run my own editing business, where I routinely proof and edit all kinds of texts: essays, dissertations/theses, fiction, articles, etc.. I’ve worked as an editor on two fiction magazines in recent years. It should go without saying, but I've no problem working on LGBT fiction and would be happy to be involved.

Some details about me: - Native English speaker - BA and MA degrees (English), CELTA qualified - Published novelist, short story writer and poet - Managed an editing and proofreading service for several years I have reduced my bid to meet your stated budget and to be competitive on Freelancer, but please don't wonder if this will affect the quality of the work.

For testimonials, please view my profile or visit my website: STPediting(dot)wordpress(dotcom)/testimonials/ I will: - Check your fiction for US spelling, punctuation and grammatical errors - Assist with flow/clarity - Assist with plot structure, characterisation and originality - Work to your specifications and deadlines Please consider me for the job.

Please let me edit your first story at no charge. I've been doing this kind of work for a long time and just to show you the quality of my work, I'd be glad to edit or proofread five or six pages for you at no charge. A lot of the other Freelancers can talk to you about all their qualifications. I prefer to demonstrate my abilities directly. Please take a look at my profile, and my reviews, all unsolicited. There are also samples of my work in the portfolio section. Again, I'm very experienced and able to meet any deadline. Thank you for any consideration. I am in the eastern United States time zone in St Joseph, Michigan.
