Hi there, I'm working ft in the semiconductor industry, a father, and all around busy. In 2016 over three months by me a sci-fi novel was written, the first book titled "Mining" being only 100 pages, book two 500. Since then it's just been languishing in various folders. My own attempts to clean the thing up and make it presentable have horribly failed, even though I'm usually very organized. It was a work of pure inspiration. There exist several copies of the document, some where I tried to correct spelling myself using Grammarly, update the text with more ideas, etc. In short, there are several versions of the document, some corrected, some not. I would like to give great artistic freedom to someone who can clarify, write and edit correctly for ebook publishing, the sci-fi story that grew in my imagination those 5 years ago:)

Hi, It's true! Lots of errors in your book equal lower ratings on Amazon, and lower ratings equal fewer sales and lower rankings. My career depends on apt proofreading, ensuring the content is easy to read and understand as well as attention-grabbing for the readers' community. I will fix errors such as wordiness, repetitions, redundancy, inconsistency, syntax errors, wrong spellings, incorrect grammar, punctuation errors, and sentence flow errors. I will make all necessary corrections and return your completed text, you can review all corrections using Microsoft Word's Track Changes feature. Regards, Marie.

Hi there, I'm Matt Sergei (do call me Matt, please) and would like to help you - this has to be done well. I like Science Fiction genre the most, first Bladerunner had a big influence on me for life (not even counting excellent director's work). So, do you have all content (all versions/revisions) in electronic format? Since you have mentioned Grammarly, I believe you do. Do you have any back story e.g. plot for a book created? This is just informational, I would read the entire content first. Do you like the style of any current or late Sci-Fi writer? Do/will you have several books as part of a series? Three books would certainly earn more. What's your intention with the e-book? Will you stick to the Amazon Kindle (you cannot sell your e-book elsewhere if you use any of their advanced services for authors, like 5 day free promotion etc) or think about other platforms as well? More promotion (this means success or failure for any book) can be done using your website, book promotion video and then some. I do know how to do that though (no problems technically - webmaster and multimedia pro for 26 years) have less experience creating all this collateral. And would do best for you - possibly in further project. Otherwise I'm also former technical writer (Doc-To-Help Certified Trainer) so triple-check any content I deliver. And yes, I know even how to insert multimedia (audio, video) to EPUB3 format though this is limited on Kindle. Regards and hope you're safe, Matt

Hello! This sounds like an amazing project. Congratulations to you for writing 600 pages! I'm working on a similar project currently, which is ongoing as the books evolve (we're just finishing book 3 now). I prefer to use the Track Changes feature in MS Word when making revisions. That way, you can accept or reject the revisions as you like, making sure you as the author retain final approval over your own writing. I'll convert the documents to Word if needed. I hope you choose me as your preferred editor! Lee Ann Wolff Fictionary-Certified Story Coach P.S. Some reviews from other happy clients: "The best part was the professionalism and personal communication of the editor. I felt like she understood and appreciated my work. Every piece of advice or recommendation was well thought out and made me reflect on both the novel and my writing. I feel my story is better, stronger, and clearer for the changes that she made. Throughout the story, she left feedback regarding what her thoughts were on different scenes, character interactions, and guesses about where she thought the story was going which helped me understand how readers might be thinking or viewing events." James, CYPRESS, USA "I loved the communication. Lee Ann gave me explanations for all of the edits she recommended and even helped me smooth out some of the details that I had missed. Plus, her positive comments really encouraged me and fueled my excitement to get my work published." Amanda, KILLEEN, USA
