Hi there. I am a professional creative writer/editor with 20 years experience in the publishing industry as an editor and proofreader for prose, business, government and the corporate/education sector. I have just placed a bid for your Children's Book Edit project. I have worked across two decades as a writer, editor and proofreader of all manner of texts - both prose and business (print and electronic) and have completed two published novels. I recently finished a 2-year contract writing and editing print materials for the New South Wales (Australia) government and recent projects on Freelancer; including proofreading an academic (PhD) Civil Aviation thesis on Air Safety, editing a 20k word novella and editing/proofreading a 143k word novel. On 31 August 2013, my young adult/romance/adventure novel was published - a 450 page novel I wrote and professionally edited. Please visit [login to view URL] if you would like to see more details about me, the book or a sample of my work. I'm ready for an immediate start and would be happy to send more samples as required. With me there’s no gimmicks or false claims, just good, professional work delivered on time. Would love to discuss your project with you further. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. Kindest Regards, Ray

Hello! I am currently employed with the North Dakota Legislative Council as their proofreader, and I have been a proofreader/editor for almost 9 years. I am a native English speaker, and I have an in-depth knowledge of the English language and grammar. I have proofread many different types of documents. On a daily basis, I have to produce high-quality work that is not only error-free but also flows smoothly and makes sense. The majority of the work I do is seen by the public, so I have to ensure that my work is the highest quality so the author of the document maintains a good rapport with the public. I would love the opportunity to help you with your project and to show you the quality of work I can do. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to ask. Thank you in advance for your time. ~KJensen0711

Hi there, I'm an Associate of the Society for Editors and Proofreaders and have more than 15 years' professional experience. I have qualifications in English Language and Literature, and am very comfortable editing and proofreading in US English. I'm a keen reader and have read a lot of children's books over the years as well as range of adult fiction (science fiction, crime, fantasy, satire). I've been getting very positive reviews since I joined Freelancer and will give you 100% if you award me this job. I appreciate that you are the author of the work and I will not make any unnecessary changes. I will check for spelling, grammar, punctuation, and consistency of character and other information. If there is a specific brief you want me to follow, I am happy to do so. It would be great to work for you on this project. All the best, Gavin

Hi! I would love to help you and edit your children's book. While I am experienced at editing business articles and projects my real passion lies with fiction and I have a special fondness for children's literature (children's lit was my all-time favorite class in college!). I have two young children and know what they enjoy and can handle as far as books go, that coupled with my previous knowledge from school makes me an ideal candidate for your project! If you have any other questions please don't hesitate to send me a message, I hope to hear form you! Thanks, Lillie Carabajal

I hold a Bachelors Degree in Psychology, with a minor in Theatre Arts, as well as the IB Diploma. I could certainly proofread and edit your story within twenty-four hours. Kind Regards, Alex Hamel.

I spend all day editing materials for a range of audiences, and children's books are one of the most fun to work on. If you entrust this project to me, I will provide you with the best work I can. What format is the current book in? If it is word, I am happy to work with track changes so you can see the edits I have made, as well as providing you with a "clean" version of the file to easily use. If you have it as a PDF, I can mark that up for you. Whatever your requirements, feel free to contact me to discuss them further. I look forward to working with you. With very best wishes, Louise

Hello, I am a skilled editor and proofreader who happens to be new to the Freelancer scene. I'm currently working on building a solid reputation here on the site, which is the reason for the price of my bid. I deliver quality work while providing feedback and asking questions when clarification is needed in order to ensure your satisfaction with the finished product. On a personal level I was an avid reader as a child (and an adult for that matter) and still get a kick out of some of the children's books out there today. It'd be a fun and interesting project for me to undertake. Thank you for your consideration, DTitov

I have obtained a Diploma and Higher Diploma of Publishing, Editing and Proofreading through the Australian College in Sydney, Australia. I understand that spelling mistakes, poor grammar and badly constructed sentences can lead to a loss of business and opportunities. I ensure that the document or manuscript is well constructed and will meet its intended purpose. I always consult with the author before I commence working on the manuscript. My aim is to improve the work by assisting the writer to be a little more objective. I edit the work for integrity, completeness and consistency. I proofread for sentence structure, grammar, spelling and punctuation, and basic format. If you would like to discuss my proposal, please contact me. Thank you Bedelia
