I have a book being written on 'How To Become A Commercial Airline Pilot' - roughly 25.000 words.
I need it proof read then copy edited and provided with the completed document in word ready to go to the typesetter.
Proofreading - I need someone to check and correct the punctuation, spelling, grammar, subject-verb agreement, formatting etc in the document to ensure a consistent and accurate use of UK English, as this is the target audience.
Copy Editing - I then need once the proof reading is done to also edit to improve the style, structure, clarity, flow, tone and language in the book to ensue that it is appropriate for the audience (aspiring commercial airline pilots).
Previous examples of pre and post work is a must.
