$25-50 USD / hour

I'm looking for a very experienced editor to proofread my fiction manuscript and also my cover letter to publishers. I am looking for someone to fix grammar, punctuation and formatting issues. I am an experienced writer, and this book has already been self-edited twice. Therefore, it should be pretty clean. My deadline is flexible. I know the Christmas holidays are approaching, so I can definitely accommodate holiday plans.

Good afternoon I'm an independent editor, based in the UK but with dual British/US nationality. I have worked on well over a hundred novels over the last 5 years and have experience with publishing briefs and communications. I was an English teacher and lecturer in Creative Writing before I became an editor; you could definitely say that this is a good fit for my skill set! Christmas-wise, I'm not really taking any time off, so I will definitely be able to exceed your deadline expectations, which is great because I always expect there to be a back-and-forth approach once I've sent you a draft (you might have questions, rewrites, re-edits etc.) Get in touch and we can go through a sample together and discuss the manuscript in more detail. Many Thanks Simon Richardson

HI! I'd love to take a look at your book. I believe the job of an editor is to give the writer a fresh set of eyes with which to view the work and perhaps offer perspectives not previously considered. You can actually check out my overall writing style and tone at my site: scribassist.com. My approach to writing is based upon taking chances as far as being ultra creative and ultimately making a significant impact on that reading moment in a person's life! You have to be smart about how you utilize words and sentences; screen/page space is a precious commodity not to be wasted. Holding a PhD in English, I know that I can create dynamic text for you.

A self-proclaimed "grammar geek", I work hard to help make your writing the best it can be. I am a passionate, hardworking writer and editor who graduated magna cum laude with a degree in English-Writing. Having recently released my debut novel with a Philadelphia-area publisher, I am currently a candidate for an MFA in Creative Writing, which has me taking a variety of advanced courses both in fiction and nonfiction. Why you chose me Strength of mine is working fast but effectively, as I have a competitive turnaround time and the ability to write or edit blog posts, press releases, and resumes/CVs in fewer than 24 hours, edit full-length manuscripts in less than ten days, and complete the first draft of a novel (60K words) in under a month. I am known for being savvy at proofreading and catching errors in writing pieces. My strengths include • CVs/cover letters/resumes • college essays and personal statements • creative writing (stories, novels, letters, songs, etc.) ghostwriting, copywriting, editing, proofreading, and marketing writing, among others. Please consider me for any of your writing, editing, proofreading, or brainstorming needs. I have an unwavering passion for making things great through writing.

Hello, and congrats on finishing your novel! My name is Jackie, and I would absolutely love to 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. My passion is well-polished, great writing -- Over the past year alone, I've edited more than twenty-five published works, including thirteen novels, as well as screenplays, magazine articles, and business publications. I am currently a writer and associate editor with a publication in my city, and I have worked in the past as a newspaper journalist and editor. My BA is in English with a concentration in creative writing. On average, I edit 2,300 words of text in one hour. I typically charge between $.01 and .025/word, depending on how intensive the editing need is. Since I don't yet know the exact word count of your novel or the level of editing required, my current bid is only an estimate. I'd be more than happy to edit a writing sample free of charge in order for you to determine whether I am a fit for your needs. I look forward to hearing from you!

Good afternoon; My name is Nadene Seiters, and I’m a professional line editor, copy editor, and proofreader with over seven years of experience working with fiction and non-fiction manuscripts. I use the Chicago Manual of Style, Seventeenth Edition for fiction manuscripts as that’s the one currently used by major publishers and review publications (the New York Times), but I’m comfortable with others if you prefer another style. Examples of my previous work can be found in my portfolio; however, I’d love to complete a sample edit of your manuscript, and I’m willing to sign a nondisclosure agreement before I see any part of it. I’m most comfortable with Microsoft Word, and I’m more than familiar with the Track Changes feature. A sample can be sent to me here on Freelancer through the messaging system. My rate is $0.01 per word, so this project would cost roughly $300. I’m not sure how large your proposal letter is, but I do have experience with them, and I’d charge the same rate for editing that as well. I can have 30,000 words and a proposal letter completed within five days of contract acceptance and receiving the full documents. Thank you for your time and consideration! Sincerely, Nadene Seiters

I hate to be the one to tell you this, but you DON'T just need an editor to proofread your novel and correct various grammar mistakes. You need someone like me, a compassionate editor who is fanatical about making everything -- and I do mean EVERYTHING -- in your story resonate not only with readers, critics, and publishers, but with you, the author. After I apply my skills, I want you to read the finished version with new eyes, as though you are a stranger picking up the book accidentally left in a coffee shop and can't put it down. Don't believe I can do it? Send me a sample to edit for FREE and you'll find out! -- David L. Gaskill

Hi, I'd like to edit your book. What's it about? I would bid a flat rate - as I don't charge by the hour here. So, I'd like to get a better idea of your writing skill/background/education before I commit to proofreading only - as I suspect (based on experience) that light editing might be required. I'm a university-educated native English speaker. I have lots of experience - writing, editing, proofreading, teaching creative writing & doing manuscript consultations. I would use track changes and offer comments. Please see my reviews and portfolio on my profile page. I can send you a list of recently-edited projects and direct you to some of my work online if you like. Thank you.
