Hi, I am a professional proofreader, copy-editor and writer with over 19 years' publishing experience. I promise to correct misspellings, rectify any grammar mistakes and generally polish your text to make it shine. Examples of work corrected: essays, CVs, letters, marketing material, coursework, job applications, magazine articles, books, blogs and websites. As a freelance proofreader I offer proofreading and editing services to both businesses and private individuals. Whatever the project and whoever the client, my aim is to provide an excellent service. As a editor, it's my job to understand exactly and deeply what your writing is about, so that I can help make it everything you know it can be. Whether light or substantive editing is what you need, whether you want your voice retained or developed. I'm certain this description is too long-winded, and if you've made it to this point, kudos! Please contact me so I can put on one of my metaphorical hats (or actual, if you prefer) and get to work! Best Regards, Micheal

Hi! I've been a freelance writer and editor for 15 years, having worked in various publications including books, journals, articles, screenplays and stage plays, essays, websites and other digital resources. Being bilingual, I've freelanced as a translator (English to Portuguese and Portuguese to English) for the past decade which, in essence, is an extension of an editor's craft. Translating is truly a pleasure since it allows me not only to take full advantage of my linguistic skills but also learn about a new subject every time. Furthermore, I also come from a scientific background which has given me the chance to become a trained researcher. As a hobby, I love exploring, researching and writing on a few subjects of personal interest mostly within the realms of history, mythology, film and physics. In the end, I'd say I'm an avid traveler with a hyperactive imagination and a passion for adventure (both physical and intellectual). Lastly, a brief description of my work ethics: - I only guarantee what I can deliver, and I always deliver what I guarantee; - Every problem has a solution. When there's no solution, it's not a problem but a limit, and we must work around it. Creative writing and linguistics are both a big part of my life and I know I'm not alone here, so, get in touch!

A good editor is meticulous, experienced, and as invested in the project as you are; that's where I come in. Editing is truly my passion; there's nothing I love more. That's why I fully invest myself in every project that I work on and am not satisfied until it is of professional publishing quality. I am harsh when necessary, because it is my job to make every project as close to perfect as possible. However, it is also my job to make sure that the author's voice does not get lost in the process. I have a B.A. in English from Cornell College and had my first story published in a literary magazine at age 21, for which I received an honorary mention for the Clyde C. Tull Prose Prize. Two of my recent editing projects (both completed in 2015), "Hot Mess to Mindful Mom" by Ali Katz and "Monster Stepbrother" by Harlow Grace, made it onto Amazon's Top 100 bestsellers list. I've worked on novels, memoirs, self-help books, and non-fiction texts. Published books I've worked on include "Indecent Encounter" by USA Today bestselling author M.S. Parker, "Invisible Scars" by Dr. Bart P. Billings, the "Echo Canyon" and "Mail-Order Brides" series by Linda Bridey, "The Mango Tree" by Shaji Parayil, and many (over thirty) more. A complete list of published works is available upon request. The price below is a rough estimate--for an accurate price quote I'll need a sample of the book along with the current word count. Thanks, --Dawn

I am a native English speaker who paid her way through university with copy editing. I am quick on my feet with an eagle's eye for detail. I work well under a deadline. I am also an author and am in the middle of writing my first fantasy novel. In my portfolio you can see some examples of my work. I would be happy to help correct grammar, spelling and even offer plot advice. I can offer character construction and development help, too.
