Hello Naomi, My name is Nadene, and I’m a professional copy editor and proofreader with over seven years of experience, some of which can be found in my portfolio. I have worked with publishers in the past, so I’m aware of the style required for proofreading non-fiction and fiction. In addition, I am a native U.S. English speaker, but I have worked with U.K. and Canadian English in the past, so I’m aware of the vernacular used. I’d love to do a sample edit of your manuscript to help determine my eligibility for this position. I’m willing to sign a nondisclosure agreement or confidentiality agreement before seeing any part of your work. I charge $0.01 per word for manuscripts below 50,000 words, so it would be a total of $300 (I like round numbers), and that’s in Canadian dollars. I can have your manuscript completed within four days of contract acceptance. I'm not able to bid below the budget for a project on this site, so I've put in the lowest amount possible in the suggested range. Thank you for your time and consideration! I look forward to seeing a sample and learning more about your project. Sincerely, Nadene Seiters

Hello As it is Saturday, I am a little unsure if your 'next week' refers to the week beginning Monday 8th October, or Monday 15th October. I ask as my diary is full for the whole of next week, but I would have time available the following week, I would also welcome the opportunity to see the script, or the first chapter, to get an idea of the volume of work required. I work with MS Word 'trackchanges' so that any corrections made are clearly highlighted - this not only makes it easier for you to accept or reject any changes, and also to see that the manuscript has been thoroughly checked! I hope my profile as a full-time editor and proofreader will give you confidence in my services not just based on the quality of my work, but also on my reliability and ability to meet deadlines. Please feel free to ask if you have any questions. Kind Regards David

Hi! I have gone through your project details proofreading task. I'm detail oriented and eagle eyed, especially when it comes to proofreading for spelling, grammar, and punctuation using either American or British standards. I love helping writers to hone their work and elevate it to its highest potential. I will suggest changes to improve the clarity and flow of your text, but I work with a light hand to leave your distinctive voice and tone untouched. I treat all text with the utmost respect for copyright and confidentiality. I work in Microsoft Word, and unless you request otherwise, I track changes. Is it only grammatical proofreading or enhancing the content as well? I am your best bet. To see some of my sample work, please knock!

Hello, I am a highly-skilled writer who has strong visual awareness, exemplary grammar and spelling knowledge, and the ability to analyze and modify. When it comes to missing links and correcting errors, look no further. Remember, your content could be a first impression. If you send out material that is riddled with misspellings, grammatical errors, and wrong information, you aren’t going to be presenting a good image of your business? Here is the summary what you have requested. Task: Proofreading 30,484 words manuscript Short Summary: Proofread a document Proposed Deadline: 3 days Let’s get that content in tip-top shape today.

Hi, Naomi! I would love to talk with you further about your timeline and take a peek at the manuscript to see if proofreading it and getting it back to you before you need to send it off to the publisher is something I could do for you. I'm an experienced writer and editor (from proofreading all the way up to structural editing) and can readily share samples of previous relevant work as I learn more. So please reach out, and let's discuss how we might be able to work together. Thanks for your time and consideration, and I hope to get the chance to talk more soon!

My clients appreciate the quality of my work. They rehire me regularly and have awarded me 19 bonuses. In addition to my overall five-star rating, note my US English exam score: 98% at the highest level of difficulty. I just have a minor quibble. The minimum allowed bid is quite high. Unless the writing is in really bad shape, $300 (possibly less) is a more realistic figure.
