Hello, I have been an editor for nine years and during this time, I have edited thousands of books, websites, scripts, and academic papers. I can begin immediately, I tried signing up on your website but it didn't work, please contact me.

I would like to take part in this important proofreading/editing project. I have participated in a great number of proofreading, editing and copy-editing tasks for years. However, I'm positive that this is not an easy job to do, because it requires a lot of attention on the editor's part, along with possessing a broad experience, both in general and academic writing. I'm not only a copy editor but an EFL teacher as well; a fact that enables me to use the English language efficiently and accurately. I have read your project description very carefully and I fully understand that you need an expert in editing, paraphrasing and proofreading. I'm also aware of the fact that clients not only need someone to detect errors, but also look for a professional writer who can efficiently change the structure of sentences and get the whole text remolded, whenever needed. It'd be a pleasure to help you get this project perfectly done within deadline. Kindly, check my portfolio for more credentials and authentic samples showing my style of proofreading. PS. I have recently finished editing and proofreading a novel by a Spanish author and another one by an Australian writer. Please, check their reviews on my page.

* Please note that my bid is provisional based upon our further discussion of the project. Dear Joshua, I've just completed a similar ghostwriting project and have significant proofreading experience so would love to be involved in what Nunabooks is doing. Why don't you take a look at my profile/portfolio and see if I'm the kind of person you'd like to hire? Send me a private message in the meantime and I'll get a sample of my work to you. Warm regards, Edward Ferrari

Hello, I run my services from the Indian city of Calcutta and bring to the table more than two decades of editing experience at several English newspapers. We Indians have been using the English language for more than 200 years; so please have no worries on that front. I have gone through your project description and am keen to offer my editing services to your self-publishing authors. A former business journalist with 26+ years of desk experience at four major English dailies in India, and a company that provides editing services online, I am a seasoned editor and can handle the language with skill and élan. My services will include substantive editing, copy editing and proofreading. I am much more active on Elance where I have done book-sized UK and US projects to five-star rating. I am, however, not successful on this platform mainly because I don’t sport those qualifying badges that come with a price tag. On Elance the exams are free. My clients always get back a thorough job as I habitually go deep into any piece of writing I’m working on. I’d like to use the MS Word while editing your books as its track changes facility proves beneficial to both client and contractor. Looking forward to hearing from you. Thank you, Writeman4it

I'm an experienced editor, writer and layout person who has been working of late for tech, IT, financial and similar companies doing copy writing, editing and proofreading. In my misspent youth I was much more adventurous and worked in places such as Japan, Hong Kong, Singapore, India, Pakistan, Nepal, Kuwait, Thailand, Beijing and Somalia. A lot of my work was as a stringer, some of it was doing research and background for the actual writer, in some cases I was the guy holding the camera or lugging equipment while dodging bullets and shrapnel. I believe that was called building character in the old days. Considering all of the above, I'd like to propose the following; 1) Starting at a per page rate of US$2 for basic editing (checking for grammar, spelling and continuity in the documents) 2)An hourly rate of US$15 for researching background (regional/ethnic slang, military, police or occupational jargon and procedures) for your authors.
