Hello, Collaboration, attention to detail, consistency, patience, creativity, and accuracy. These are all traits I have to bring to the table as an editor. Editing is crucial and must be taken seriously, and very carefully. Not only will I fact check and do my research, I will also look for proper and consistent style and tone. My proofreading, editing, and rewriting abilities allow readers to clearly understand and dive into a piece of writing. I have an eye for altering to the point of creating a successful piece of work, as desired by my client. Regards, Mathinson

I am fluent in Bahasa Malaysia since I am Malay, and I do have ample enough experience in doing editorial work. For one of my clients here I have done a couple of projects where I had been tasked to edit and improve the quality of the writing of the articles and sales copy that this client had made. https://www.freelancer.com/projects/15524229.html https://www.freelancer.com/projects/15326064.html You can also find the improved copy for the client's Big and Strong program here on my profile's portfolio items list. I can also handle the translation of the book from English to Malay as well before I would proceed to edit it according to your guidelines and preferences. I am seeking an hourly rate pay of £30 / hr which I believe is fair for a freelancer like me. If you hire me I will use Freelancer's desktop app and activate the timetracker, and you can pay me by the amount of time recorded as I do this work live for you. Hopefully I will hear back from you soon!

As a working freelance writer for many years now, I have become a very reliable and experienced editor. Editing, rewriting and proofreading is a very important part of the writing process, and it must be done with strict ease. An editor must catch any and all grammatical, spelling, structure and formatting errors in a piece of writing. They must be consistent, creative, patient, negotiable, and very detail oriented. This task is highly significant in completing any piece of writing, which qualifies me to edit just about anything you may need proofread or rewritten. With great understanding and experience of editing, I will enhance your work to its full potential, ensuring you are satisfied and the work is more than presentable. Regards, Dhardesty.

I have excellent fluency in Malay and English and editing broadcasts, blogposts and articles are my area of expertise. I don’t have samples as most of the jobs I’ve done are for my company. Do give a chance for this job as I could use the extra income and improve my writing skills.
