Need a copyeditor to proofread your manual ensuring the content is flawless and ready for publication? I am your go to person:) I'm an experienced proofreader/editor with a postgraduate background in communication studies. I bring my 17+ years of professional expertise to the service of the general public & academia to assist in this sacred process. I strive for complete accuracy and the highest degree of professionalism in the work I complete. With excellent content recognition, my editing and proofreading skills extend across many industries and business needs—you could say that I am an “editing savant”—and have always been the hidden accomplice behind any successful document. I am a passionate perfectionist when it comes to a succinct, well-written and mistake-free document—that oh-so-important first impression. The message in your manual needs the five key elements of communication: Clarity Coherency Concision Consistency Correctness This is what you would be guaranteed if I am awarded this project. Work will be done using MS Word Trackchanges so you can see any corrections made. I enjoy supporting people to be their best, especially when it comes to clear communication. Your professional presentation is my business. Sample edits can be found on my freelancer portfolio. A link to my professional portfolio is provided below.

Hi Slyohio, I currently work part-time as a freelance Quality Control officer for an Academic Literature Consultancy that produces academic research papers, from Undergraduate to PhD level. During my work, I have successfully copy edited many academic papers for grammar, spelling, punctuation, formatting and readability. I would love to copy edit your manual to perfection and have it back to you within two days. I have many years copy editing and proofreading experience in different genres and formats and have also written many reports and essays during my academic career. I may be fairly new to Freelancer, but I'm keen to establish a good reputation through excellent feedback from happy clients. Unlike other Freelancers bidding on this project, I don't overload myself with taking on too many projects at the same time, therefore I can focus exclusively on your project. I hope you will give me this opportunity to demonstrate my meticulous attention to detail, excellent spelling ability and grasp of grammar, as well as my highly conscientious work ethic and reliability. Please don't hesitate to contact me for any additional information you may require or if I can be of any further assistance. With thanks, Dorable.

I have been formally trained in copy editing, stylistic editing, and proofreading. My experience includes work for Oxford University Press and Sears Canada, as well as editing academic papers and fiction novels. I am new to this website, though not new to editing. I am offering reduced rates in order to build up my reputation on the website. My estimate is based on an hourly rate of $8/hr - significantly reduced from my average rates of $13-15/hr. The milestone proposed is for when I reach the halfway mark, at which point I will submit to you the work I have done thus far. I can finish this short project within 3 days. I always try to complete the project as soon as possible, and I submit under schedule if possible. If you would like me to do a sample edit, free of charge, please send me a few pages of your document. I look forward to working with you. -Morgan

Hello, I work mostly in creative writing, but I have experience in technical and academic writing as well. I do my own editing and proofing, so I'm good at catching mistakes, from the smallest spelling errors to problems in sentence structure. I'm quick and efficient but thorough, so I can assure you that I'd be able to have this back to you relatively quick while still handing you an improved version of your manual that readers smoother and more professionally. If you need samples of my work, please check my portfolio, and if you have questions please PM me.

I understand you need some editing and "cleaning up" of your manual. I am currently a grad student studying Business Administration, and I write papers frequently; I am also maintaining a perfect 4.0 GPA while doing so. I have extensive experience with typing, proofreading, punctuation and grammar. I am also a very detail-oriented person and settle for nothing less than a perfect paper. I can easily proofread and edit 24 pages each day, more likely could have it back to you withing a few hours. I do hope you will give me the opportunity to do this for you, as this is what I excel at. If you would like to discuss the project further, please contact me. I can provide references for my writing accuracy and style if you desire.
