Hi - I'm happy to proofread your thriller novel as I'm a professional English proofreader with extensive experience in linguistics and writing. I've helped a lot of clients polish and refine their manuscripts (fiction and non-fiction), business documents, books, novels, novellas, ebooks, short stories, blog posts, articles, presentations, etc. Also, I never discuss or distribute the contents of my potential projects but I may keep a copy of your document on file for a period of 48 hours in the event that you need further editing of future revisions. Finally, the finished product will include two copies of the edited text—one that shows the changes (a copy with MS Word Track Changes on), and one that incorporates all of the changes made. These are some of the books I have edited: 'The Shoebox' by Tracy Ploch 'Hiding in the Shade' by Kathryn Wiseman 'The Opposite Effect' by Steve Claydon PS. I also hold a BA in English Language and Literature and currently teach IELTS (writing). I really look forward to working on your novel.

To Whom It May Concern: My name is Nadene Seiters, and I’m a professional line editor, copy editor, and proofreader with over seven years of experience working with fiction and non-fiction manuscripts. I use the Chicago Manual of Style, Seventeenth Edition for fiction manuscripts as that’s the one currently used by major publishers and review publications (the New York Times), but I’m comfortable with others if you prefer another style. Examples of my previous work can be found in my portfolio; however, I’d love to complete a sample edit of your manuscript, and I’m willing to sign a nondisclosure agreement before I see any part of it. I’m most comfortable with Microsoft Word, but I can work with Google Docs and PDFs as well. A sample can be sent to me here on Freelancer through the messaging system. My rate is $0.005 per word for editing and proofreading, so the total cost of your project would be $250. I can have 50,000 words completed within five days of contract acceptance. Thank you for your time and consideration! Sincerely, Nadene Seiters

Building scenes of tension and mayhem is only half the fun. Making characters completely believable and taking writing quality to the highest levels is the other. I have already edited three thrillers, one of which is by an author in Australia. My clients (see my feedback) have loved how I enhanced their work. Thirty-seven years in journalism, dealing with crime stories and certain types of "bad" entertainment, empowers my perspective. Send me a sample of your book to edit for FREE and I'm sure you will want to give me a shot. -- David Gaskill

Hi, I'd like to proofread your novel. Tell me more about it. Did you have professional editing done on it? What is your writing background? I ask because, from my experience, sometimes writers here need editing when they're just asking for proofreading - which would affect the bid. I'm a university-educated native English speaker. I have lots of experience - writing, editing, proofreading, teaching creative writing & doing manuscript consultations. I would use track changes and offer comments. Please see my reviews and portfolio on my profile page. I can send you a list of recently-edited projects and direct you to some of my work online if you like. Thank you.

Hello, I am an English literature graduate and a total bookworm, thrillers are one of my favourite genres of books and I have had lots of proofreading and editing experience. I have an exceptional grasp of the English language and I am able to take simple words and turn them into a well-articulated and powerful sentence. I am available to write, edit, paraphrase, copy write or proofread any document promising that it will be clear, concise and engaging with no mistakes.

My work is of a high- standard and is completely my own work, I never plagiarise and if writing demands direct quotes then it is always cited and referenced correctly in all formats. I am meticulous and detailed and take pride in every document I complete whether a small or large task, it gets the same conscientious effort. I assure you that if you pick me for your project you will receive great service and a quality document that is second to none. All my work is free from grammatical and spelling errors.
