I have corrected the copy editor's "corrections." Now, not exactly sure what I am looking for. I do need someone to proofread it and find grammatical or spelling errors or things the incompetent copy editor missed. (Just because you pay a large sum of money to someone does not guarantee they will do a good job). :) This is a non-fiction book about basketball. You should be familiar with American English sports idioms, slang and journalistic style. I am not interested in someone re-writing my book to shoehorn it into the Chicago Manual of Style. If you know the difference between "sitting on a bench" and "sitting on the bench" then please go ahead and send offer. Word Count is about 120,000

Hello The difference is explaining the worth of the bench so the bench will not look common and I totally agreed that just because you pay a large sum of money to someone does not guarantee they will do a good job. I would love to assist you to edit and proofreading the content that you required for your biography, it might include either plagiarism, possibly too many errors, or too simplistic I will recreate, edit, polish, proofread, and improve your book so it would be worth reading and attracts the audience to catch a glimpse of your biography. I can also make sure to write a story in a creative, captivating way by including the introduction of yourself, state the major life sport events, develop a good and strong plot, describe how you were in an early age, create a sensory experience, explain what challenges did you face in your life and what did you learn from these experiences, collect your moments of high emotion, use a Visually Appealing Structured Layout. The audience will find it attractive and can help your reader connect with your story. Being an expert copywriter with the experience of 5 years in this industry. I have written many similar projects like eBooks, manuscripts, scriptwriting, novels, screenplay, biography, short stories, and other forms of creative writing. Message me so that we can discuss more in detail. Thanks

Hello, Greetings! I am expert in proof reading and writing dissertations, research papers, review of literature and analysis.  I will not be doing just a quick proofread - where one can basically just skim through the content and correct just some grammar mistakes and leaving the rest. I will take the content, read it, correct any grammars, concepts, the flow of things, remove repeated content, rewrite sections which do not make sense without losing any "beef" material (so to speak) and overall improve the quality and flow of the content. Please initiate a small chat so that we can discuss the details of the project and provide you exact quote with a timeline.  I will be grateful if you find me a deserving candidate and allow me to work for you.    Thanks and Regards Jyoti

Hi. Sorry to hear about you being gouged by an editor who charged a high fee and then did a less than satisfactory job. I am not a basketball player myself, but I am a fan and have been to many games including the Miami Heat. So I know the differences between "sitting on a bench," "sitting on the bench," and "being benched for the season." I am also familiar with basketball sports idioms like pick and roll, swish, and air ball. My strength in editing books is that I can find the grammatical errors, the misspellings, and weak or incorrect sentence structure in order to improve your original work. I can also rearrange paragraphs in a chapter for the best logical flow and impact. What I do not do, however, is change or rewrite any of the wording, vocabulary, or original intent of the author. This is not a rewrite. My feeling is that you just need someone to get the book up to the standard of the publishing industry so that you can start distributing it for sale.

If you are reading this proposal, it's a success already! I have checked the project description on this editing and proofreading task. Can you please share the draft? I can assure you a high-quality solution with grammar, punctuation, and spelling as per your deadline. I could have attached some of my past work for you to have some confidence, but there's no such attachment button. Better if you go for the chat option, and I can share some of my past work. Surely, you will have a better understanding of my writing style.
