Hi,
I can do a great job with critiquing your book. I currently run my own editing business, where I routinely proof and edit all kinds of texts: essays, dissertations/theses, fiction, articles, etc.. I’ve worked as an editor on two fiction magazines in recent years.
Some details about me:
- Native English speaker
- BA and MA degrees (English), CELTA qualified
- Published novelist, short story writer and poet
- Managed an editing and proofreading service for several years
I have put in a fairly low bid in order to be competitive on Freelancer, but please don't wonder if this will affect the quality of the work. I am dedicated to my business and would be happy to work with you to get the work done to a high standard by your deadline or sooner.
For testimonials, please view my profile or visit my website: STPediting(dot)wordpress(dotcom)/testimonials/
You haven't been clear with exactly what you expect from a critique, or mentioned whether your text is fiction or non-fiction, but I can:
- Comment on the need for a proofreader or line editor (spelling, punctuation and grammar)
- Comment on flow/clarity of written English
- Assist with plot structure, characterisation and originality, making suggestions
- Work to your specifications and deadlines
You can expect at least a page of notes, more likely 2-4 pages depending on the type of manuscript we're talking about.
Please consider me for the job. I look forward to hearing from you.
David
