Consider my current bid a placeholder until I can discuss with you and get more details, and consequently get a better scope for what you need and what an appropriate budget and timeline for that might be. I've edited dozens of published books, and my education background has been primarily with marginalized (and often refugee) populations. In addition, I've worked specifically with Somali and Eritrean refugees in St Paul, MN and have some familiarity with the problems many of those refugees faced. I'd love to discuss further with you, so please don't hesitate to reach out. Thanks for your consideration, and I look forward to hopefully talking more soon!

Hello, I have gone through your request to write your book by filling up the necessary info. Incidentally, my field of study is related to the topic and I therefore have a knowledgeable opinion on the topic. I will write an original, yet compelling article to keep the readers glued to the book. I will prepare a few questions for you to answer which will complete the information I need to write the chapter. Regards, Garon Helton

Hi, I’m Bella, I am a professional copy-editor from New Zealand. I have enjoyed working with budding and experienced authors. Attached to my profile you will find examples of my style. My bid is estimated and I will be able to provide an accurate price and turn-around time when I know the word count but as a guide, my 1,000-word rate is $19. I always do a thorough two-read review and provide a copy of my work with tracked changes. For long books, I like to work them chapter/section by section so I get a feel for how much editing you are looking for and to ensure that both parties are happy. Books I have proofread include: - ‘Roots: Memoirs of two cities’ by Collin Chee, - Two of the ‘Single and Blessed’ series by Rebecca Kay, and - ‘Dongbeihua: The Dialect of North-East China’ by Dennis Behnke. I have: Strong attention to detail, spelling & grammar skills; Experience with translated text; Experience with many document types & writing styles; A working knowledge of both UK & US English.

Hello, and congrats on finishing a book! The memoir sounds intriguing. My name is Jackie, and I would love to proofread and edit it for you. I'm a native English speaker with impeccable grammar skills. I also have a keen eye and ear for characterization, voice, flow, sentence structure, story arc, and plot. Perfect prose is my passion--I have copy-edited and line-edited five novels, a self-help book, a children's book, and several newspaper/magazine articles and business publications. I am currently a writer and staff copy editor with three local publications in my city, and I have worked as a newspaper journalist and editor. My BA is in English with a concentration in creative writing. I would be more than happy to edit a sample of your writing free of charge in order for you to determine if I am a fit for your needs. I also have samples of my prior work available in the Portfolio section of my Freelancer profile, and will happily provide references upon request. If I understand your job posting correctly, you are looking for a proofreader/copy editor who will check grammar, sentence structure, punctuation, etc., as well as someone who can add substantively to the existing story. My bid assumes your book is about 70,000 words in length I look forward to hearing from you!
