A Poets Journey

Hi, I can do a really great job with editing "A Poet's Journey". I currently run my own editing business in the UK where I routinely proof and edit all kinds of texts: essays, dissertations/theses, poetry, fiction, articles, etc. I’ve worked as an editor on two fiction magazines in recent years. Some details about me: - Native English speaker - BA, MA, CELTA qualified (BA included poetry) - Published novelist, short story writer and poet - Current editing and proof reading service in the UK for several years I have put in a fairly low bid because I'm still relatively new to Freelancer and am looking to build my reputation, although I've been doing this kind of work for years. I'd be happy to work with you to get the work done by your deadline or sooner. I will: - Check your poetry for spelling, punctuation and grammatical errors - Assist with flow/clarity of any introduction/foreword - Clear up imagery/metaphors where necessary without interfering with the poet's voice or stylistic choices - Work to your specifications and deadlines Please consider me for the job. I look forward to hearing from you. David

Hello, As a native english speaker (U.S. citizen) living in France, I have been working in various fields of languages for the past 15 years (editing, proofreading, correction, translation, etc). On top of the obvious editing and correction work (grammar, spelling, syntax, etc), I aim to enhance, strengthen, tighten, sharpen and make your text flow so the message behind the words finds its way into the readers' minds, grabs and maintains their interest and provokes thought. Please feel free to contact me for additional information. Best, Elizabeth

Hi, I am a university student currently studying English and Journalism, and I am interested to help you out with editing your manuscript. I have had experience poems and short stories. Besides just correcting any mistakes in grammar and sentence structure, I can also help you polish your writing and make sure the message is clear and straightforward. I'm a creative writer. I've written a number of poems myself and I happen to be an avid reader of self-help books. My favorite is the Chicken Soup for the Soul series, which I grew up reading. I work quickly and can get your manuscript edited punctually by the deadline that we agree on. I believe communication between an employer and employee is key to the success of a project, so I will stay in constant contact with you to ensure that what I'm doing is up to your standard. I'll make revision after revision with you until the final product is one that you are satisfied with. I'll be more than just an editor - I will provide my feedback and thoughts to you from an outsider's point of view. While my own opinions might not be reflective of everybody else's, it will hopefully be useful to you to help improve your project. If you'd like, you can message me an extract of your writing and I'll edit that for you. That way, you can have a look at my style of editing before you make any decisions about hiring me. Thank you for reading my proposal and I hope you can consider hiring me. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
