Copy Edit New Academic Article - April 2017

$30-250 USD

$30-250 USD

Paid on delivery
I need someone to copy edit an article prior to submission to an academic journal. The text of the article is approximately 9.5K words. The copyediting needs to be more than just noting where a comma is missing. On top of correcting any grammatical mistakes, sentences may need to be restructured to sound intelligent. The structure of the paper is fine and the paragraphs are all in the right places. I am a native english speaker and use American english conventions. The article will be provided in an MS Word file and is ready for copy editing. Ideally, the file would be returned to me with all of the needed corrections made in the paper within two days (w/track changes). Obviously, there will be some corrections that will go awry because it is unclear what is meant in the original text or because of technical features that are unique to the economics discipline. This article is original scholarship and should not be shared with others or posted in other places. I retain any and all copyrights to the article as it my intellectual property.

Hello there, While making no claims to being a Native Speaker, I do insist that my language skills are second to none, if that is the yardstick that's to be used. I do understand the difference between copy-editing and proofreading, so please rest assured. Please ask for samples of editing on similar lines that I have done offline, and I can attach them to a chat window. Regards.

I am a professional editor and proofreader who have revised documents for newsletters, brochures, advertisements, blogs, memoirs, cookbooks, etc. I edit and proofread your file for grammar, spelling, formatting, word choice, sentence structure, style, consistency, and more. I will track the changes and deliver your revised file via email before your deadline. My service is 100% confidential. Why Choose To Work With Me? You are working with a language specialist. I have a Master’s degree and have taught English-speaking students (up to undergraduate level) for over 30 years. So I am familiar with academic papers. When you know the ideas that you wanted to communicate inside out, it can be hard to spot any slip-ups. I will review your work from a reader’s perspective – with a fresh, unbiased pair of eyes. You can review all of the changes I make using the ‘Track Changes’ feature in Word. This allows you to approve or reject any of the changes yourself, keeping you fully in control of how your text is edited.
