I have bid on your project with an hourly rate but I prefer to work on projects that have a fixed fee, based on word count. My rate in that case is usually USD15 per 1,000 words. I have been working on the Freelancer platform for more than three years and during that time have copy edited about 60 books, both fiction and non-fiction. All my reviews are excellent. Alongside this, I am the copy editor for a number of entities, as listed on my profile. I am a trained teacher and taught music at junior secondary school for several years. I am a flute player and can play the piano. If you would like to share your manuscript with me, I will get an idea of how I can help you. I would certainly be able to correct errors and make the writing clear. I'd be happy to do a sample edit of several pages (at no cost) to see if you like my work. Once you send me a message, I will be able to send you some samples of copy editing work I have done.

Hi there! I’m Deborah, and I’d be delighted to edit and then proof read your book for you. In my work I value the required features you list. If selected, I would aim to ensure your writing has an engaging tone, uses good grammar and has that special glow, so it is easily readable and understandable by readers. What an exciting project for you in retirement! I am a responsible, experienced and professional editor/proofreader with high-level English skills – and my work makes my clients happy. I propose an initial edit to look for what intrudes on the basic accuracy of the text; followed by a second edit that focusses on the detailed changes required for tone, readability, shine etc; followed by a quick proofread for any missed details. While I’m working I like to be able to Chat via Freelancer if necessary – not about absolutely everything, of course, but when I am not sure what the intended meaning of the text is. I have some queries, if you don’t mind. Does the text contain illustrations of the vocal apparatus and the various bodily positions required for singing? What style of singing is this for? What is the word count for the text? Do you have any requirements for when the work is to be finished by? Many years ago, I studied classical flute, played to a high amateur level and taught too – so I find this topic fascinating! You can see samples of my work in Track Changes in my Freelancer Profile Portfolio. Regards, Deborah

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. What an exciting project! As the mother of two passionate young singers-in-training I am very interested in discussing your how-to book with you. I enjoy working alongside authors to help them achieve their goals and produce final content that you can be proud of. I find collaborative work the best way to approach book projects so that you feel your work is respected and have a say in any changes that I suggest. This developmental editing approach takes longer but, in my experience, authors find it a gentler and more satisfying experience in the end. We can discuss setting a fixed rate for the whole project (based on word count and level/ type of editing that you want) if that is easier than an hourly rate. For examples of my work please message me. I look forward to hearing from you.

Hi. Although I currently live in Brazil, I´m an American editor and proofreader, a native English speaker with excellent writing skills and years of experience correcting and improving books and texts. I use Word´s Track Changes function to show you all my corrections and comments in your text (I can teach you to use it if you´re not familiar with it yet - it´s very easy). One of my recent jobs was editing a book on intuition - although my clients usually request a Non-Disclosure Agreement to protect their authors rights (I suggest you do this as well), I can show you a few parts of this job after you contact me (Freelancer does not permit attachments from me before that). I also offer to do a sample edit and proofread of the page of your choice as a free demonstration of the quality of my work. Since you opened this project with hourly rates, I offer to work for $25 CAD/hour, but if you can inform me of the total words in your manuscript, and/or let me examine the manuscript (after signing an NDA), I can offer you a fixed price for the complete job, which is usually much cheaper. Please contact me for further discussion - I sing, albeit only to myself, so I recognize the importance of this kind of book for people´s lives, and I´d like to help with it. Thanks, David
