Hello! I'm Deborah – and I’d be delighted to edit your book so it is error free, and also focus on what is missing structurally to strengthen its impact. I’ll make sure the book keeps the tone of voice you’ve written it in, so it still sounds like you! I’m a native English speaker and an experienced editor/proofreader - and love to value-add to what a writer has created. You’ll find before-and-after samples of my work in Track Changes in my Freelancer profile – for the editing part of this project. For the structural part of the project I’ll send you my comments/assessment/suggestions via chat. I’ve found that the following process works very well for my clients. 1. I edit the book. 2. I return it to you for your comments/suggestions/queries. 3. I proofread the book, also taking into account your added comments/suggestions/queries. My two Milestones relate to steps 1 and 3. I’m allowing 15 days for them, so there is time to do your book justice. I’m not quite sure what you have in mind when you say “give it some structure” – do you want my suggestions only OR do you want me to make structural changes? My suggested process and Milestones might need to be adjusted. If you selected me, we could work that out before we start. My work makes my clients happy! Regards Deborah

Hi, I am an Australian writer and editor. I have worked on a lot of ebooks. May I ask the subject of yours? I will use track changes for spelling, grammar and sentence structure, and content structural changes. I will make comments about other things where I feel there are issues that need your attention. With more than 20 years industry experience, I started out as a journalist and subeditor. Since then I have worked on countless projects with success. Please see my reviews and portfolio. Would it be possible to have a look at the work you need edited? I invite you to open a conversation about your project requirements. Thank you

Editing, rewriting, and proofreading are a huge part of what I do every day. Every writing assignment I take on must be grammatically correct and combed through for any possible mistake, and this is something I never take lightly. I do not accept subpar work. In fact, anything that needs correction is sent back to me to be tweaked until it is perfect. Additionally, I have excellent communication skills and easily take thorough instructions, ensuring that my clients are always satisfied with the quality of my work, and the requirements that have been set forth. Having the chance to tweak things and help a writing become perfect is a wonderful thing. Regards, Max Finley
