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. With years of experience with teaching writing and language, I provide a thorough service that includes all spelling, punctuation and grammar issues, but that also focuses on word choice, style, tone, consistency, flow and layout. I'm completely flexible with deadlines and my service includes unlimited reviews; I always provide a fully-tracked draft well in advance of any deadline to give my clients time to go over everything and ask questions - at no extra cost. Get in touch for a chat and to ask any questions. Please note that my quote is based on word count. Many Thanks Simon Richardson

Hello, I am a professional, native-English speaking editor who works quickly and thoroughly. I will ensure your book is free from grammatical errors, typos, and spelling mistakes, and I can help with word choice and sentence structure as necessary. Please feel free to check out the more than 250 positive reviews on my profile page. I am including a few relevant ones below. "She edited the 2nd eBook in my series. An associate read through my book and was impressed with the editing of the book. Highly recommend!" "Krystal is the best proofreader and editor one can wish for!" "Klboots is very professional, delivers on time with her commitment, is thorough and has a keen and expert eye for proofreading and editing. I would definitely hire her again!" "Krystal was extremely wonderful to work with! Communication was great and she honestly did a great job with everything. I loved the fact that she took the extra initiative to really polish and add certain things into my story to make it better too. Will definitely be contacting her again once my upcoming story/project is completed!" "klboots did an excellent line edit of my book manuscript. The work was done quickly and to a high standard.

Hi - I'd be happy to edit and proofread your non-fiction book as I'm a professional English proofreader with extensive experience in linguistics and writing. I've helped a lot of clients polish and refine their manuscripts (fiction and non-fiction), business documents, books, novels, novellas, ebooks, short stories, blog posts, articles, presentations, etc. Besides ensuring a document is error free, I pay attention to clarity and coherence, i.e. transitions between ideas. I also do some moderate editing, where necessary. 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 of future revisions. The finished product will include two copies of the edited text—one that shows the changes (a copy with MS Word Track Changes on), and one that incorporates all of the changes made. PS. I also hold a BA in English Language and Literature and currently teach IELTS (writing) in Cairo.

Hi! How are you? I understand that you need someone to proofread a book for you. As a Australia-based writer, I'm very interested in your project and would love to do the proofreading for you. Just name your topic/s and let's see how we can work it out. Thus, I'm placing a bid of $500 USD for a book that need proofread to be completed within 10 days or less. The book itself will contain its own copyright page and table of contents, as well as chapters and titles which have been formatted and hyperlinked for easy reading on both Word and Kindle. You'll have full rights to the entire book which will certainly be of good content and top quality. For samples on books and blogs I've written, please see my author page on Amazon.com. You may also check out my profile and portfolio here on Freelancer. I hope we can work on this project together. Just give me a heads-up and we can start on your book right away! Thank you. Steven H.

Hello, and congrats on finishing your book on concentration! My name is Jackie, and I would absolutely love to proofread it for you. I'm a native English speaker with impeccable grammar skills. I also have a keen eye and ear for voice, flow, and sentence structure. My passion is well-polished, great writing -- over the past year alone, I've edited more than twenty-five published works, including novels, nonfiction books, children's books, screenplays, magazine articles, and business publications. I am currently a staff writer and editor with my city's monthly family magazine, and I have worked in the past as a newspaper journalist and editor. My BA is in English with a concentration in creative writing. On average, I proofread 2,300 words of text in one hour. I typically charge between $.01 and .025/word, depending on how intensive the editing need is. Since I don't yet know the exact word count of your book or the level of editing required, my current bid is only an estimate. I'd be more than happy to proofread a writing sample free of charge in order for you to determine whether I am a fit for your needs. I hope to hear from you soon!
