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. I provide a comprehensive editing service that focuses on development through grammatical and lexical checks as well as flow, consistency, layout, style and tone. My experience within the Creative Writing field means that I can offer subtle changes that enhance the content without removing your unique voice as an author; this is important as poorly edited work often appears quite patchwork. 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 critiques and assistance with publication if required. Get in touch to discuss the project in more detail with regards to your deadline and the project fee (I quote based on word count). 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

A lot of the other Freelancers are telling you all about themselves. I don't do that. Please look at my profile, wherein you will see comments and reviews from my previous clients and samples of my editing work. I prefer editing large bodies of work and the clients for whom I have done this have been nothing less than very happy with the results. Of course, the bid I placed is totally dependent on your total word count and deadline. I'll be happy to discuss your project in great detail and certainly would consider editing your first chapter at no cost to give you an idea of the work I do. There's no point in listening to me brag about myself. I'll work for you and let my previous clients speak for me. I am in the eastern United States time zone in St Joseph, Michigan. Thank you for any consideration.

Hello, "Yes, I'm" My mission is to eradicate ghastly grammar, poor punctuation, and tragic tenses. The language you use when writing is judged. The saying is true: It is not WHAT you say but HOW you say it that matters. Let me formulate your non-fiction book in clear, concise words. I can write deliberately or deliciously; I will hone in on your intent and boil it down to the most common denominator so that it's so easily palpable, that your audience will know exactly what you want them to know. I can write, edit for business, creative and personal needs. You tell me what genre, tone, and style you want, and it'll be done! Let me edit your non-fiction book before you publish it. 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. Best regards, Alex Laiho

Hello, Collaboration, attention to detail, consistency, patience, creativity, and accuracy. I have to bring all of these traits 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 our research, I'll also look for proper and consistent style and tone. I have an eye for altering to the point of creating a successful piece of work, as desired by our client. Our proofreading, editing, and rewriting abilities allow readers to clearly understand and dive into a piece of writing. ### I Promise Quality Writing... Whatever You Want. Best regards Richard W.

The author of eight published books, I have over ten years' editing, ghost-writing and proof-reading experience. In that time, I have worked with all kinds of writers on all kinds of different writing projects - fiction, non-fiction, memoir, self-help books, religious and academic texts. Familiar with all publishing standards, I will first assess your manuscript in terms of content and structure, and areas which may require rewriting, additional work etc. Once this part of the process is complete, I will undertake a basic proof and edit to eradicate any typos, grammatical errors, to check on sentence structure and word proof. And finally, I would read over the m/s one more time to ensure that your work has that essential professional polish. Additional info: I use Track Changes in Word and can make a start right away.
