Hello! I am a native English speaker, and I have recently completed my Master's in English language and literature. I have three years of experience teaching academic writing at the university level, and three years of experience working as a freelance writer and editor. I can read and amend your manuscript within a period of 3-4 days. I would correct any errors using the "track changes" feature of MS Word, and, if necessary, use marginal notes to comment on the content or confusing passages, so as not to change the substance of your work unduly. If you have any questions, or if you would like to see a sample of my work, please do not hesitate to ask. I look forward to speaking with you soon =)

I am an English teacher, with a Master of Applied Linguistics. I am highly skilled in all areas of English spelling and grammar, and as a native speaker of Australian English, I am accustomed to the use of UK English rules and patterns in my daily communication. You will notice that I have an excellent reputation on this site, and your project will be no different. I am happy to copy edit your work, however, I also have experience in line editing if you would prefer. I often do both at once, and have done so successfully many times on this site. I will use the 'track changes' feature in Microsoft Word for all editing, and you can expect to have your completed edit returned to you within 15 days of receiving the original manuscript.

Hi, I’d just like to explain why I genuinely believe that I could well be your ideal candidate for this! My name is Danny, and I'm a UK-based professional writer and published author. For the last 5 years, I've been working full time for an Australian company in the roles of Blog Writer, Editor, Proofreader, Social Media Manager, Sandwich-Fetcher, and general all-round Copywriter. The company provided business design services, and I was responsible for proofreading hundreds of artwork proofs every day to ensure that any potentially expensive errors were corrected before the orders were sent to press. During this time, I was also the editor of the successful company Blog, and crafted over 500 original articles on a variety of business marketing topics. The main idea was to take a potentially dry business topic and inject a healthy dollop of humour into each article to create a quirky and engaging read. I've seized this opportunity to submit a proposal to edit your manuscript, as this is exactly the kind of work I'm seeking now that I've returned to my freelancing roots! I can guarantee a turnaround in two weeks. I don't think you're likely to find a more conscientious person for this project, and I feel that I would really enjoy this challenge, as it plays to all my strengths. Please don't hesitate to get in touch with me if you'd like to see any samples of my work or need any further information. Would be lovely to hear back from you. Danny

Hi, I think I may be just the professional editor you are looking for to copyedit your manuscript. I normally work one-on-one with my clients to insure they are 100% happy with my edits. I invite you to look at my profile to read the 5 star positive feedback left by my clients and my portfolio of recently completed projects. A bit about my background: I am an experienced Copy Editor/ Writer and native English speaker with a MA in Art History from the University of St. Andrews.

I currently have a flexible schedule so I can dedicate time and attention to your project, I am professional and always respond to queries in a timely manner and more importantly, I am easy to work with!
