Hello, Can I get more details or see a sample? Can you give some general indication on topic? What is the approximate word count? Can you kindly PM (private message) me so that we can have a better discussion of how I can help you? I can assure good quality that is always delivered on time. The comparative difference is that I am a communications professional with multi-national experience in major corporations. Please feel free to check out my profile. Depending on your deadline, I would send the first 10% as a sample to get both of us on the same page. Then you can expect work to be delivered at 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100%. This way, there are no surprises and you can monitor progress. About myself: -native English speaker -born and educated in Canada (you can refer to my resume) -my specialty is writing, editing or proofreading -hold a Bachelors and MBA -former English teacher turned corporate (please refer to my exam badges) -9+ years as a communications profession (please refer to my resume) Thanks Anson

I have a full grasp of the English language being a native speaker. I am a content creator and social media manager, aka lover of all thing involving words. I have experience editing and writing technical documents, but love to read anything. I often find myself editing books as I read them - annoying but it's my quirk. My bid is to read and edit for grammar, sentence structure, and spelling. General feedback on content if requested, otherwise straight editing. I have references and other writing samples upon request. Thank you for the opportunity.

I have 30 years experience as an editor (fiction and nonfiction), writer (fiction and nonfiction), screenwriter, ghostwriter, copy editor, and writing coach (please see attached resume and publishing history, as well as my Elance job history). As a developmental editor, my focus is on assuring the work is as good as it can be by editing for story arc, character development, clarity, flow, consistency of voice and style, pacing, plausibility, etc. As a copy editor, I also assure that grammar, syntax, noun/verb agreement, punctuation, etc. are correct. I'm easy to work with; communicate with the client as much as he or she desires; am efficient, reliable, and accountable; and always make deadlines. I'll do an initial edit of your book and submit it to you for your review and feedback. Once I have your input, I'll create the final, polished book. I'm happy to edit a few pages of your book for free to serve as a sample of my work. Please contact me if you'd like more information, have questions, or would like to see samples of my editing.
