I am a certified copy editor with experience in proofreading novels, website articles, scripts, and social media posts.
Canadian English is my first language, but I possess a high degree of familiarity with Australian English as well, due to having Australian coworkers.
I possess excellent language abilities, and readily notice overlooked errors in published and unpublished copy. Depending on article length, I estimate it taking 3 hours to proofread your 6 articles of 600 words each, and would charge $60.00 for the 6 articles in that case. This is based on a rate of $20 per hour. The initial 6 articles would be returned to you within 2 business days.
I do note that you hoped to pay $8.00 in total, but unfortunately that rate will not get you a certified copy editor at today's editorial standard rates. If you decide that professional quality is important to you, I would be glad to help you at the aforementioned rate.
