Copyediting: memoir, ca. 10.000 words -- 2
$750-1500 USD
Paid on delivery
Copyediting (spelling, grammar, punctuation, structure, feedback etc.) of a memoir (in the spirit of Eat, Pray, Love or Notebook), ca. 10.000 words, by non-native English speaker.
I'm looking for a professional individual, preferably with experience of book editing to help me to improve my story and make it a masterpiece that I can be proud of publishing. I would appreciate to work with a person who also could empathize with the story and give feedback on the content.
The story is a personal memoir from the time when I, quite spontaneously, gave up my job, home and material belongings to bike south Europe to meet 100 random people to understand why they do what they do with focus on happiness. During this journey (5000km, 9 countries, 120 days) I met a guy in the forest, whom today is my boyfriend and father to our daughter, which gave this adventure an unexpected twist.
I ask only for serious bidders who are willing to take on this journey with me, not giving up until both are fully satisfied with the end results.
If outstandingly well done, I'm happy to add a bonus payment.
Best,
Kristín
