Hi, my name is Georgia and I'd love to assist with your project. As a bit of background about me, I'm a recent graduate of the University of Queensland, ranked in the top 30 universities worldwide, where I completed my Bachelor's degree in Law/Arts, with first class honours. Later this year, I'll be commencing Masters-level study at the London School of Economics in the field of law. I've previously worked as a research clerk/paralegal with an immigration law firm in Brisbane, as well as managing my own highly successful online retail business, instaLens. As such, I have spent the past six years writing, drafting and editing essays, proposals, research papers and legal documents in an academic and professional context, with meticulous attention to content, style, grammatical accuracy and flow. I've read over your project description and would be happy to assist with editing and proofreading your novel. As I have previous experience with writing, drafting and editing a wide variety of works, including both fiction and non-fiction books, as well as papers, articles, essays, and reports, as well as an extensive and sophisticated grasp of the English language, I think I would be a great candidate for the job. I am currently taking some time off work to travel, so have a very flexible schedule and workload at present and could complete this project quickly. Thanks for your consideration, and good luck!

Sure, my bid is higher than some, but with my 38 years of editing experience, you would be hard pressed to find a more skilled or empathetic editor than me. To prove it, I'll edit a sample of your book for free. Send me a chapter, and I'll show you how I can make your writing stand out. My method is to edit a book three times: First, to evaluate its total concept and smooth rough edges; second, to add creative touches and suggest meaningful changes; third, to make sure the language flows flawlessly and connects most effectively with readers. All that takes extra time and effort, which is why my projects take longer to complete. I look forward to working on your book. Talk to you soon!

Hi, Please provide the word count of your novel for an accurate bid. I just skimmed your writing. It looks pretty good and your story sounds interesting. The biggest problem I see is that you mix your tenses. You will have to decide if you want the story in past or present tense. I am a university-educated native English speaker. I have lots of experience outside of this site - writing, editing, teaching creative writing and doing manuscript consultations. Please see my reviews and portfolio on my profile page. Thank you.

I am a professional writer and editor with over 20 years' proofreading experience. I have a degree in Creative Writing, and I have been working as a freelance editor for the past six years. Unless otherwise requested I do all of my editing using the Track Changes feature of Microsoft Word, including both inline edits and comments. My rate for copy editing along with proofreading is $3/500 words, so if you could provide me with a total word count I can adjust my bid accordingly. I did read over your sample chapter and I appears to be very clean - the biggest issue I noticed is that it jumps back and forth from past to present tense, so that's definitely something I can take care of for you throughout the book, as well as any other proofreading and editing as required. Samples of my writing and previous editing work are available in my portfolio. I do want to mention that I have a somewhat low completion rate on Freelancer due to several scam projects, so if you have any concerns after looking over my profile I'd be happy to answer any questions you might have, as well as provide you with references from previous clients. I’d also be happy to edit a short portion of your manuscript as a sample of my work at no charge so you can decide if our styles are a good match. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you’d like any additional information, and thanks for considering my proposal!

Hi! I have experience editing both fiction and non-fiction, although fiction is my preferred genre. I've read more than 500 books, and over the course of that have developed an instinctive sense of story structure and plot progression, as well as a deep understanding of how to balance emotions with plot. It really helps in my own writing, and I believe I can put it to good use editing your book. I've read and watched a lot of sci-fi, and adult themes are not going to be a problem at all. My usual rate for heavy editing is Rs.400/300 words, open to negotiation. I'd be happy to provide samples of my work. We can discuss details on chat.

Hello, My name is Chris. I'm not going to spend a lot of time pitching to you, I'm just going to jump in and give you some examples of what I would like to see changed in your story. I am versed in English and educated in the field of editing and creative writing. I subscribe to Stephen King's philosophy of writing (out of anyone I think he's the most qualified to teach) and I pass that knowledge onto my clients while editing their work. You wrote this because you are passionate about it, now let someone passionate about the written word help you become one of the greats! After your book is published and when it makes it to the movie screen I'll want 3% of ticket sales ;) Yours: page 2 paragraph 3 Mine: The third officer, vomit still present on his uniform, opened and caught another horrible glimpse of the terrible reality inside. He swallowed hard to stop from dry-heaving, he doubted there was anything left in him to throw up. The interior was hard to recognize as anything but a mess of metal and blood, two bodies jumbled together in a vestige of what was once two human beings. There was nothing elegant or beautiful about the way their limbs had been twisted and broken. A young girl caught the officer's attention, he guessed she wasn't much older than his niece who had just turned 14 a week ago. Her sobs were deep and heavy, laden with fear as she held her knees to her chest in the far back of the van. Let me know what you think!

Plus, I am a romance writer myself so I will be sure to deal with your project with the delicacy it needs. I would love to be considered for this project and look forward to working with you.

Hi, I am interested and would like to take on this project! I am a professional, well-educated, bright, and experienced editor with 6+ years of expertise and flawless English (I am a native speaker).

I'm familiar with the tasks, procedure, and formatting and can deliver excellent quality editing, proofreading, and feedback services for your novel. I am also a big science fiction fan myself. Don't hesitate to contact me if you're interested -- let me know more, please! I know that deadlines are very important, and I am willing to start as soon as possible. Looking forward to hearing from you, Katherine

My profile scores in English (both American and British) are quite high. I have also written SF/Fantasy and I can direct you to my website where my ebook can be downloaded for free and without registering. For a more accurate estimate, I would need a few pages of your manuscript to determine how "clean" it is. In addition, I would need a word count. Also, did you want British English or American English?

As an editor, I find that one of my greatest assets is the fact that I am deeply literate and especially well-read. Science Fiction was a particular interest of mind during my formative years when I developed an affinity for words and language. I more involved in Classic and academic literature recently, but Science Fiction is still a passion of mine. I take great pride in committing myself fully to all projects, and I make certain to produce nothing short of my best each and every time I become involved in anything. I have read the sample that was uploaded along with the posting for this job, and would be happy to proof/edit/rewrite it and share the result via email as an example of my editing and linguistic style.

I am an experienced author and editor, working with a couple publishing imprints in the United States. I have a degree in Creative Writing, and work with both fiction and non-fiction authors in getting their projects successfully completed. You don't mention the length of your project, but I would work with you in a compete line edit of your work, as well and a top-level edit for continuity and plot cohesion. I will also work with you to maintain your personal writing voice, rather than forcing everything into perfectly correct, but bland, prose. If you have question about the process or want to talk to me about your book, I am looking forward to hearing from you.
