Hello, I understand that a copy and paste article may need to undergo several modifications for it to pass copyscape. I will modify, edit proofread and re-write the article to meet the required specifications. I will also seek to correct grammar errors and overall try to refine the English language. Regards, Garon Helton

Hello, I'd like to know more about your project. What’s the subject matter and word count of your written content? I'd be happy to provide you editorial assistance in 10 weekdays (Monday-Friday). I'm an experienced, professionally trained, detail-oriented, full-time freelance editor. Moreover, I’m a proficient teacher of creative writing, world literature, and English as a second language. I've edited, proofread, and formatted written documents, such as books, e-books, journal articles, magazine articles, manuals, PowerPoint slides, web content, as well as university-approved master's and doctoral dissertations varying in length and subject matter while adhering to the required style guide. I provide the necessary recommendations and amendments using the MS Word comment tool and track changes feature; I apply standard proofreading marks when working on files in PDF format. If you’d have questions or concerns regarding my proposal, just send me an e-mail and I’ll respond shortly. Thank you for taking the time to review my proposal and profile. For now I wish you a blessed day ahead. Sincerely, Al

Hi. I offer to proofread and edit your book, correcting grammar, spelling, punctuation, vocabulary, sentence structure and clarity of expression. I suggest improvements to your work, to help the story or discussion flow better, make more sense and keep the readers´ attention. I´m American, with excellent language skills and university-level training in creative writing. I use Track Changes to show my corrections and comments in your text. I just finished revising a self-help book for an Italian author - you can find his feedback in my profile (Jyotish/Marco). I can supply samples of previous work on request, or do a small sample edit on 1 page of your work for free to demonstrate my abilities. I prefer to work for a fixed rate instead of hourly rate, to avoid unnecessary conflicts about how much time was actually used on your job. The fixed-rate price of my services depends on the number of words in your original text, the subject matter, the time avaliable for the edit, and the extent of the work you want done (correcting English x writing additional text, for example). But if you prefer hourly rates, I can certainly work that way, too. Please contact me for further discussion.

Editing, modifying, and rewriting are a tremendous piece of what I do everyday . Each written work task I go up against must be syntactically right and looked over for any conceivable mix-ups. I don't acknowledge or submit less than impressive work. Actually, anything that needs amendment is sent back to me to be changed until it is prefect. I have superb relational abilities and effectively take careful guidelines, guaranteeing that our customers are constantly happy with the nature of our work.

I have ample experience editing a variety of texts including e-books, manuscripts, reports and essays. Being an avid reader myself, I find I am always coming across errors in grammar, spelling, usage, style, and punctuation. I would love the opportunity to edit your book. Your readers should be able to enjoy it free from these kinds of errors. All of my edits would be tracked for your review, and I can insert comments when needed. Please check out my portfolio on my profile page for a recent sample of e-book editing.
