I am looking for an experienced editor for my spiritually oriented self-help book. The title is: It's Time to Come Home: With Kindness and Compassion We Come Back to Ourselves. It's approximately 60,000 words. It is my second book. I have been studying shamanism for nearly 30 years and have been teaching this gentle form of shamanism for the last 11 years. These are the collected lessons that precede the more esoteric teachings.

Your book sounds interesting and useful and I like the title. I am an experienced copy editor, so I am able to correct any errors in your manuscript, check for consistency and rewrite sentences for clarity and flow. I would be happy to do a sample edit (at no cost) of several pages or a short chapter to see if you like my work. I have been working on the Freelancer platform for more than three years and during that time I have edited about 60 books, both fiction and non-fiction. All my reviews are excellent. Alongside this, I am also the copy editor for a number of entities, including the International Journal of Wellbeing.

Hi - I'm happy to edit 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 usually, if not always, opt to restructure or recast sentences for clarity and coherence, i.e. transitions between ideas. I also do some moderate and/or substantive editing, where necessary, to promote understanding, create parallelism and avoid awkwardness and ambiguity. On a different note, 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 hold a BA in English Language and Literature and currently teach TOEFL and ‘Academic IELTS’. These are some of the books I have edited: 'The Shoebox' by Tracy Ploch 'Hiding in the Shade' by Kathryn Wiseman 'The Opposite Effect' by Steve Claydon

Hi there! My name is Dave and I'm an experienced editor with the Preferred Freelancer Program. The genre of your book is quite specific and one which I have worked with quite a bit. The temptation of an editor is to make changes where they see fit, but when dealing with spiritual books in particular, it's important for the editor to show restraint and only fix the grammar and any awkward sentences. This allows the author's voice to remain and not to take away from the message being presented. Please feel free to contact me to discuss this further!

This is something I do a lot of, and really enjoy doing it. I can put some serious shine on your book. The bid of $750 is not set in stone, by the way. I also am curious as to the deadline you may have established for this work. I hope you will read the reviews in my profile. They are entirely unsolicited. I have edited/proofread novels, technical documents, websites, self-help books, CVs, Masters' Theses, Doctoral Dissertations, Letters of Application to universities and medical schools. It is as important to me as it is to you, sincerely. I have a great depth of experience in this area of endeavor. I appreciate any consideration of my interest. I am in the Eastern US Time Zone.

Hello, I consider myself a skilled writer that strives to make the customer happy and completely satisfied. Since I have excellent grammar and spelling capabilities, I am able to determine the concept that is trying to be shared by the customer. I then turn around and correct missing links or other errors and produce refreshed content that is plagiarism-free. No online rewriting tool is needed in this case. It is important to remember that the content of your business plan – not just the appearance – could be the first impression a prospective client may get. If the prospective customer receives a document that is full of grammatical errors, misspelled words, and inaccurate information it can give a poor impression of the presenting business. It would be my pleasure to help you get your content in optimal shape. Regards

Hello, and thank you for your consideration. As a myofascial therapist and professional content marketer, I'm excited to offer you both my skills as an energy healer (although not quite Shamanism, of course) as well as a prodigious editor. In my 7-year career as a content marketer, I have edited more than 500 pieces of content, from scientific journal publications to casual-prose articles and everything in between. If selected to edit your book, this is what I'll do: -Establish the level of editing you prefer (ground-level proofreading versus grand-scale thematic edits) -Communicate with you early and often so we are both pleased with the direction. -That's it! Deliver the product. I don't procrastinate and I don't use software (be careful on this platform). I'm a native English speaker. Best of luck, hope to speak soon.

Good evening. I'm an author/editor with about 30 years' experience. I'm spiritually aware, but I don't possess an in-depth understanding of shamanism. The project is of interest to me, and I would certainly work with you on the budget. I'm a professional. I've been at this for many years. If you'd like, I'll be pleased to edit a few pages to give you a feel for my work, at no obligation of course. As an editor, I'm conservative. I retain the author's voice and style as much as possible. Thanks for considering me.

Hello! A word count of 60000 usually takes me 6-8 days to complete as I have found that reading through 3 times gives the best results. I normally charge $2.5 to proofread 1000 words and that would be equal to $210 for your eBook. You've put a whole lot of yourself into this book and I will make sure it gets the attention it deserves. Reach out to me when you can and I will respond promptly. I'm about to go to bed now but in the next 6 hours, I'll be available to have further discussions with you. Please check my Freelancer profile for past work

Hello, I offer any kind of editing/rewriting/proofreading and complete them expertly ready within short time. I will ensure a plagiarism free article. Plagiarism is generally grounds for failure of a course and can lead to dismissal from college; in this case it should be avoided or prohibited. You must always have a reference page as well as in-text citations to avoid plagiarism. The Reference Page immediately follows the text of the paper. Items on the reference page are listed alphabetically. If you use another person's idea or paraphrase another person's words, be sure to use your own language and style of writing - don't simply rearrange the words. The scope of my services also extends further to detailed descriptions and correction of grammatical errors. Regards
