$30-250 USD

Paid on delivery
I want to release my book by July. I have a few readers reading it based off content alone and I need someone who can make my book a priority on spelling, etc. Preferably an open minded reader who will understand the urban language and won't correct spellings that aren't supposed to be corrected. This is an Urban Teen Fiction book based in the heart of Baltimore, Maryland.

Hello, You have just posted a project by requesting to proofread/Edit your Proofread My Novel. A highly experienced proof reader and copy editor with a First Class Honours degree in English Language and a published author of literacy education books, you can be fully assured of my technical ability and credentials. The correct use of apostrophes, commas and grammar and those pesky spelling rules that catch everyone out might make you squirm but send your words to me and you won't believe how transformed your text will be. I completed “online continuing education certificate of course completion - Proofreading and Copyediting 101. Class Registration Number 8900117.” Few Questions regarding of your project: *How many words do you want to proofread? *Let me know when do you need it? To provide top notch quality proofread, I need to take up to 3-4 days to research your topics then write. It will take around 3- 4 days to complete the project successfully. Thanks for visiting my page! Look forward to hearing from you. Regards Mike

Hi - I'm happy to proofread your Urban Teen Fiction book for you as I'm a professional English proofreader with extensive experience in linguistics and writing. Over the years, 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. 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. 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 Looking forward to working on your book! :-)

Hi there, this is Jayne Austin. I just checked your project which named is Proofread My Novel. You need to proofread your novel. I am a professional editor, proofreader, and copywriter. I have more than 12 years of experience editing. I will work with you on editing and proofread your articles, blog posts, brochures, e-books, kindle texts, full books, resumes, novels using British or American English. I will professionally review, edit, and proofread any text, searching and correcting errors in: - Punctuation – Grammar – Spelling – Readability - Sentence Fluency - Paragraph structure - Redundancy elimination You will receive two MS Word documents: - The first showing the changes and comments made using MS Word track changes - The second will be the completely accepted edition without the comments. After checking your project description, I have some questions about this project. The questions are 1. How many words do you want to proofread? 2. Is there any specific religion English language? 3. I can deliver the project in 2-3 days. Is it fine with you? I am ready to show you some sample of my writing. Cheers Jayne Austin

I've done a lot of editing of novels. I have some samples of my work, both fiction and nonfiction. if you contact me, I can send you some samples. There are also samples of my work in the portfolio located in my profile. Before you make a decision based solely on price, please read the reviews in my profile. Also, the price and deadline could be changed, depending on the size of your document and your timeline. I am very intuitive when it comes to understanding language that does not need to be corrected, especially if someone is being quoted. I have a high level of interest in working with you, and hope you contact me and perhaps we can find a way to work together. Please read the two most recent reviews of my work. They were both novelists and they were both happy with the work I did. Thank you for any consideration of my interest. I'm in the Eastern US Time Zone.

Hello, I am a professional proofreader, editor and writer with a strong work ethic and great sense of responsibility towards my clients. I think I am perfectly suited to proofread your book as I am extremely thorough but also fluent in urban language. As a 22-year-old I might have the disadvantage of just having begun to gain demonstrable experience on this platform, but at least I can say that I understand urban language effortlessly as well as how to treat it when proofreading! I can promise you that I would approach your material with absolute dedication to making it flawless and ready for publication. I would also update you regularly on the progress if needed. As stated on my profile page, I guarantee high-quality work, but have just begun working on this platform and can therefore only prove myself by getting an opportunity to show you my expertise. I hope you will consider my application. Thank you for your time. Best regards, Sarah J.

Hello, I understand that a copy and paste article may need to undergo several modifications for it to pass copyscape. I will modify, edit proofread and re-write the article to meet the required specifications. I will also seek to correct grammar errors and overall try to refine the English language.

Hello, I consider myself a skilled writer that strives to make the customer happy and completely satisfied. Since I have excellent grammar and spelling capabilities, I am able to determine the concept that is trying to be shared by the customer. I then turn around and correct missing links or other errors and produce refreshed content that is plagiarism-free. No online rewriting tool is needed in this case. It is important to remember that the content of your business plan – not just the appearance – could be the first impression a prospective client may get. If the prospective customer receives a document that is full of grammatical errors, misspelled words, and inaccurate information it can give a poor impression of the presenting business. It would be my pleasure to help you get your content in optimal shape. Regards

I have already proofread & edited one book for another Freelancer client. His book was sci-fi/fantasy and I was able to keep proper wording/grammar. I also write myself and I write, purposely, with a Midwest "working class" dialect. So I understand that dialect is very important to your novel. I would be happy to proofread & make any necessary corrections for you. Thank you for the opportunity!

Hi there, I am a native English speaker from the Australia and have worked in English language teaching for several years allowing me to develop an intimate knowledge of grammar, spelling, and common errors in sentence structure. I have also helped to edit, write, and proofread websites and blogs which has allowed me to hone my skills for digital content.
