I registered with Freelancer in February this year and have 37 reviews, all positive. English is my first language and my skills include technical writing, editing and proofreading. I have ongoing freelance work editing papers for an online journal for translators and interpreters. I recently edited a 65,000-word science fiction novel and the client was so pleased with my work that he commended me to Freelancer. Other recent work has included proofreading five theses, as well as individual chapters of academic writing. For two years I was a copy editor for Elsevier Science Publishers in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, rewriting text by authors who were not native English speakers. I have worked with individual clients to bring 12 books to publication and three of these clients have rehired me to work on a second book. Having been a teacher of English in high school for several years, I have spent many hours making corrections and suggestions for students' essays. For an additional two years I was a teacher of English as a second language. For six years I have been a member of a writing critique group, regularly reviewing the stories submitted and occasionally writing my own. I would use the Track Changes tool for your manuscript, inserting comments where necessary.

Good morning, I am a former journalist and marketing specialist with more than fifteen years of experience writing, editing and proofreading. As a freelancer, I have edited the gamut of material, from academic papers to cookbooks, as well as an extensive range of genres, from non-fiction to contemporary and young adult fiction. In my opinion, there are few things more frustrating than reading a great book that has grammar issues. It is an honor, but a considerable responsibility, to be trusted to smooth out a manuscript that an author has worked so hard to generate. My peers and coworkers appreciate my candor and honest feedback in any given situation. The perfectionist in me ensures no problems slip under the radar. When one combines these qualities with the pure enjoyment I have in fixing grammar and punctuation issues, you will find that I am an editorial powerhouse. Please feel free to let me know if you have any questions or would like to see any examples of my editing. I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you for your time and consideration, Mariah Patterson

I am an English Grammar tutor and proofreader. I have returning clients both locally and on the 3 websites where I work. I am adept at proofreading the most complex documents; looking at errors in sentence formation, punctuation, styles of writing, editing syntax, verb-voice coordination, use of articles, prepositions and other grammatical details. English Proofreading is my first love and passion; whether it is a legal document, the constitution of an organization, a business presentation or a romantic love story, I dedicate all my faculties to producing something akin to a work of art. This writer is fully conversant with all writing styles and keyword usage. Website content writing and product descriptions are my strong points. I review books, Proofread books and offer assistance and advice on the plot, the characters and the strengths and weaknesses of the overall work. I also do video scripts. My work is faster than the normal proofreaders accuracy is guaranteed. All my writings are 100% unique, grammatically correct and with perfect punctuation. Sincerity and the will to please are my biggest strength. This proofreader is available for long-term assignments.
