Hi I'm an independent editor with 10 years' experience, a Master's in Linguistics and a background as a lecturer in English and Creative Writing. You probably won't be surprised to hear, given the bad press the profession receives, that I myself experienced professional burnout - hence my decision to move into freelance editing. From a personal perspective, I'd be very interested to read this book as well as work on it as your editor. In terms of my work, I provide a comprehensive editing service that comprises thorough grammatical and lexical checks as well as flow, consistency, layout, style and tone. My edits are in MS Word with all changes tracked, and I always submit a draft in advance of any agreed deadline, so you have a chance to review and come back to me with questions at no extra cost. I also provide assistance with publication if required - I've worked with KDP a lot, so have plenty of prepared tools for self-publishing available. Get in touch to discuss the project in more detail; I am more than happy to provide a sample if you want to get an idea of my work – and to answer any other questions. Many Thanks Simon Richardson

Hi – I'm an English editor and proofreader and would be happy to edit your professional development book in 4 days. I have quite an extensive knowledge of linguistics and writing. Throughout my career, I've helped a lot of clients polish their fiction and nonfiction manuscripts, business documents, books, novels, ebooks, short stories, blog posts, articles, presentations, etc. I go to great lengths to ensure that every document I review is original (plagiarism free) and error-free. I’m fast, efficient and accurate and I have the knowledge and expertise you need to complete your project according to the highest standards. Besides ensuring a document is free of grammatical errors, I pay attention to clarity and coherence, lexical choice, accuracy and consistency of syntax, and readability. To ensure privacy, I never discuss or distribute the contents of my potential projects but I may keep a copy of your document on file for a period of 48 hours in the event that you need further editing. The finished product will include two copies of the edited text—one that shows all of the amendments that I have made (a copy with MS Word Track Changes on), and one that incorporates them. These are some of the books I have edited: 'Hiding in the Shade' by Kathryn Wiseman (self-help) 'The Opposite Effect' by Steve Claydon (business development) PS. I also have a BA in English Language and Literature and currently teach IELTS.
