I'm interested in editing your great-grandfather's story. It's great to have such stories recorded, and then to have someone put the effort into taking a story to completion so others can enjoy it. I have 12 years of copy editing experience and I'm also familiar with turning the spoken word into a readable text, having done similar projects. I have been working via the Freelancer platform for more than five years. I'm not sure how long the story is, so if you are interested in my bid, could you please let me know? Also, knowing your timeline would be useful, especially as I have a lot of work on at the moment ... Thanks.

Most automatic transcripts have numerous inaccuracies and errors that occur due to our different accents and audio quality. These transcripts, therefore, need proofreading and editing so that they are a true representation of what's in the recording. I will help you proofread, edit, and correct your software-generated transcripts to correct any errors, edit run-on sentences, remove repetitions and fluff to deliver a clear, succinct, and properly punctuated document as you focus on more important tasks. I can do this on any of the automatic transcription platforms (Temi, Trint, Otter, etc) so that you just download a complete document for your use. You just need to provide the link to the editing page of your auto-generated transcript and I will edit it from there. I also edit WEBVTT transcripts as well as other transcripts sent to me in Word or TXT document formats or on Google Drive (with editing enabled). Feel free to PLACE YOUR ORDER directly from any of my gig options or CONTACT ME for customized offers. I hope to delight you with the quality of my work. Stay safe. Cheers!

I think I would make a great candidate for this project. I am an avid reader and have a keen eye for spelling, grammar, and sentence structure. I am also good at rephrasing things and reconstructing paragraphs to make the most sense. I am a writer myself and have been working on projects nonstop for over ten years now. I am currently between jobs, so I also have the time needed to get right to work on this project and hopefully get it back to you in a timely manner. Thank you for your consideration and time. I would love to work with you! Abbie v.

Dear Sir / Madam, Sorry but I can't help but being sensitive to you trusting me, potentially, to edit a story that is dear to your heart, to your family. Not many of us are lucky enough to have testimonies of what our great-grandparents shared. Those words are extremely precious, in particular, in troubled times such as those we are currently living. I would thus be particularly honored to be awarded your project, and would make sure to fulfill it in a manner that simply goes beyond your expectations. As I am only available for new projects until Friday, I look forward to receiving your quickest answer. Kind regards, Vincent Flowzone Solutions.

Hi, there. I can only imagine how precious this must be to you! I would be honored to help in any way. So, let me ask some questions to get the conversation going. Do you need to clean up your typing (typos and misspellings, etc.) from your role in the project? Or are you hoping to clear up aspects of your great-grandfather's story (sometimes in dictation, we garble what we're saying, have to backtrack, etc.)? Or both, maybe? If you and I end up talking, we'll want to clarify this. It would be perfectly reasonable if you wanted to keep your great-grandfather's gaffes (if any) and only tidy up YOUR fingerprints on the story. I can handle both aspects; I'll just need to know. The only other point I want to confirm is that this is printed up in some word processor. I once agreed to edit a man's book, and he brought over a couple pounds of paper – yikes! Of course, the online version of that would be screen shots or PDFs. If I was typing everything from scratch from images, I might need to bow out, depending on the length of the story. Also regarding length, it is terribly difficult to estimate a price or timeframe for the project without an idea how brief or massive the story is. I have estimated 1 day in my bid based on the possibility the story is 40 pages or less. Let's discuss this, too. Per my skills – my ability to handle your project – I hope my writing here speaks for itself. See my Bio writing on my profile. I really look forward to reading this tale! Thank you.

Hola I will summarize all the lectures and provide you with clear, concise notes. I am a PhD writer with 5 years of experience. I have worked on several similar projects compiling presentation slides and lecture notes into a single set of notes, and can deliver quality notes to tight deadlines. You can see an example of one of those projects in my portfolio here: www.freelancer.com/u/steve I can generally compile up to 10 pages of lecture notes per day. I'm interested to hear more about the project and about the subject matter of the lectures. If you award me the project I'd be very happy to discuss this further and get started for you as soon as possible. Thanks! Steve
