I need an editor for a novel

Hi there. I have a first-class degree in English Literature from a top UK university so I can assure you I can proofread and edit your novel to a high standard of English. I'm also highly responsive, flexible, and always happy to make further amendments if needed. As for the price, it depends on the wordcount and the extent of editing required, so we can go over that in the chat. :) Feel free to message me if you have any questions!

No matter what the nature of the document, I can produce grammatically perfect, easy to read results that retain the style and tone you set.

To provide quality work, I have placed my bid on your recently posted job I need an editor for a novel. Look forward to working with you and I am eagerly waiting for your response Kindest Regards. Janelle H.

Good morning! I have several years experience writing & editing fiction for customers with resounding success. I'm prompt and imaginative while being able to understand the direction of my client. Excellent command of English language, imaginative, able to meet deadlines, passionate about my craft. I would love an opportunity to audition for this project and perhaps others in the future. Please get in touch so we can discuss this project in further detail. I look forward to hearing from you! Thanks, Steven H.

Hello, and congrats on finishing your first novel! My name is Jackie, and I would absolutely love to edit it for you. I'm a native English speaker with impeccable grammar skills. I also have a keen eye and ear for characterization, voice, flow, sentence structure, story arc, and plot. Perfect prose is my passion--I've edited more than twenty novels, screenplays, magazine articles, and business publications. I am currently a writer and associate editor with three local publications in my city, and I have worked as a newspaper journalist and editor. My BA is in English with a concentration in creative writing. I typically charge between $.01 and .025/word, depending on how intensive the editing need is and what type of editing is desired. On average, I edit 2,400 words of text in one hour. Since I don't know the exact word count of your book or kind of editing you're looking for (i.e. copy editing, line editing, or more developmental editing), my current bid is only an estimate. I'd be more than happy to edit a writing sample free of charge in order for you to determine whether I am a fit for your needs. I also have samples of my prior work and references available upon request. I look forward to hearing from you!

As actor Paul Newman said in "Cool Hand Luke," a movie classic, "What we have here is a failure to communicate." What that means is that perhaps you do not understand how many, many, many hours it takes to correct and polish a manuscript until its reader magnetism is irresistible. But that's what I do best -- I edit a book many, many, many times (at least three times), which is more than most editors do. I also bring eye-opening creativity to characterization, action scenes and dialogue. I've done this for more than a dozen books, including authors in Australia, the UK and India, wowing these writers with my prowess and contributions. That costs a little more, but it's well worth the price. Don't believe me? Send me a sample of your book to edit for FREE and I believe you'll be impressed with my skills.

The author of six published novels and a collection of short stories (see my freelancer profile for full details), I have over ten years' editing experience. In that time, I have worked with all kinds of different writers - from first time novelists and the self-published to the far more established - writing in all kinds of different genres: literary, romance, historical, crime/thriller, YA, sci-fi, fantasy etc. Familiar with all publishing industry standards, I will edit your manuscript in three stages. Firstly, a basic edit to eradicate all typos, grammatical lapses etc. Secondly, a more creative edit focusing on sentence structure, pacing, word choice/flow etc. And thirdly, a final edit to ensure that your work has that essential professional polish. Additional info: I use Track Changes in Word, will provide an interim manuscript assessment within 48-hours of recipet, and can start work right away.

Hi, I'm interested in editing your novel. What's it about? What kind of editing do you need? Please provide the word count for an accurate bid. I'm a university-educated native English speaker. I have lots of experience - writing, editing, teaching creative writing & doing manuscript consultations. I would use track changes and offer comments. Please see my reviews and portfolio on my profile page. Thank you.

Let a highly experienced editor tweak your documents for you! I will accurately treat your manuscript and other documents as I would treat my own and give it the duty and care it deserves. With this gig, your document of above 10,000 words or less will be: Free from misspellings, grammar, and punctuation errors Clear and concise to read Edited to a supreme and professional standard, with all edits highlighted via MS Track Changes or Google Docs Don't accept cheap imitations, come to the professional proofreader This gig is explicitly for a good standard of English. If your document requires extensive editing or rewriting, please message me before ordering. Thanks in advance Mrs. Mary Louise Wilsher.

Hello, Congrats on writing your first novel! I'd love to help you edit it. I've been a writer and editor for several years, and I love working with first time novelists. First, we need to determine what type of editing you're looking to have done. Three basic types are: 1. Developmental edit. I read the story and give you feedback on the overall plot, structure, and character development 2. Substantive edit: I give you critiques that address the pacing, flow, scene content, chapter structure; the "smaller pictures" that make up the bigger one. 3. Line edit: this edits the prose and the quality of the writing craft at the sentence and paragraph level. I offer all three types of edits, and my rates depend on which one you need. I can also do multiple passes through the manuscript for a discounted rate. See the milestones below for an example of how I break that down. If you aren't sure what you need, or you have something else in mind, I'd be happy to discuss it with you! Just message me and I'll be in touch. After we figure out what I can do for you, I can also give you a sample edit; that way we can see if working together is a good fit. Also, I need to know the word count is so I can give you an informed estimate. The basic bid I've entered here is for one line edit on a 50,000-word novel, but that price may change depending on length and type of service. Let me know if you have any questions! I look forward to hearing from you. Happy writing, Abigail S.

I have a Bachelor of Arts in English with a minor in history from The University of Texas at Arlington. This year marks my thirtieth teaching high school English; therefore, my revising and editing skills are excellent; in addition, I am adept with syntax and style. I just completed revising and editing a 60,000 word anthology of short stories by an already-published author, which was my second job for this author. He took a chance on me the first time on just one story, was pleased, so he hired me again to edit his entire book. He and I worked very well together, and I very much enjoyed the project. He is pleased with my work…please go view his review on my profile. I’d love to help you with your book!

I have prepared many Amazon eBooks, as well as academic works, including theses. I do the following and more: • Correct spelling, punctuation, and grammar • Check the logical flow of ideas • Ensure that message is clear • Research and check facts From formatting and preferences to punctuation and parentheticals, I rigorously strive to improve the works assigned to me with great care. Using my vast library of resources at my side, I welcome the opportunity to earn your trust and deliver you the best service in the industry. Focused on providing high-quality service and superb customer satisfaction, I am organized and punctual. You can expect the highest quality work from me. Working with you will be a pleasure. Thank you for your consideration. Kind regards, Shirley Ulbrich

E-Books are no different from any other type of book except in their medium of publication, so the most important first step to writing one is to decide on, and develop, an idea for one. The basic way to do this is to sit down and write a brief phrase or sentence that encapsulates the information you'd like to put in your book. I have B.A & M.A in English literature to confirm about excellent grammatical proficiency in your text and it's the most important things for any writing task. Writers who plan to create a book of fiction will have to spend considerably more time coming up with ideas and plot points. After unpacking and expanding your core idea, you should have a lot of information about your basic topic written down. Rearrange and organize it in a vertical outline until it makes sense to you and matches the way you'd like your book to follow. And need to structure the book in several chapters. When it comes to writing an ebook, as a professional writer, I use my whole cells to make it perfect. Please feel free to knock me for further discussion. Regards, James Franklin

NATIVE ENGLISH writer/editor based in Mexico HI, I hope that I can help you with your project. Rather than talk about my experience (which, honestly, is limited in terms of editing whole books/novels), I'd like to offer you the chance to check my editing with no payment and no commitment at first. This would involve you sending me a short sample (a page or two), which I would edit (track changes and comments) and send back to you for review, along with a reasonable quote (the amount of my bid is irrelevant a this stage) based on the quantiy and type of editing I would be doing, so that you can decide whether to move forward or not. I hope this would help you to avoid the (many) freelancers who are not completely honest about their English, abilities and experience. Despite my limited experience, I have an excellent eye for detail, and a keen understanding of narrative and character development. Please let me know if you think I might be able to help you Best Wishes Tom O'Brien
