I'm looking for an experienced fiction editor to edit a 48,000-word urban fantasy aimed at NEW ADULTS and adults alike. It's the first book in a trilogy. The novel has previously been edited. I'm looking for final edit/proofread/input/etc. before I try to sell as an e-book. I've self-published books before without much success and have quite a bit of experience working with editors.

I have done a lot of work with novelists. Everyone that I have worked for has been satisfied, even enthusiastically so, with my work. I really do want to take a look at your novel. I think my bid is appropriate for the size of the book, and I would be happy to sample the first chapter for you so you could review my work, at no charge. Then perhaps you would have a better idea of what kind of results you would get from me. The deadline to which we agree is not written in stone. For the sake of quality work, I like to under-promise and over-deliver. I hope you are an author that might consider some constructive criticism. If I see an opportunity for improvement, I'll be sure to let you know. Then you have the opportunity to take advantage or ignore me. I do understand who is working for whom. I have edited/proofread novels, technical documents, websites, self-help books, CVs, Masters' Theses, Doctoral Dissertations, Letters of Application to universities and medical schools. It is as important to me as it is to you, sincerely. Please read my profile, and my reviews, all unsolicited. I have a great depth of experience in this area of endeavor. I appreciate any consideration of my interest. I am in the Eastern US Time Zone.

Hi. Sometimes, a book doesn´t sell much because it doesn´t get the massive publicity needed to draw attention to it, which seems necessary in a world where everyone can offer anything to everyone else and most books don´t really stand out by themselves. Other times, it doesn´t sell because it just isn´t anything special, except to the author himself. I recently worked on a couple of books that fall into this second category. They were classified as Christian fantasy, but most Christian readers would probably have been turned off by the vulgar language (showing how street-wise the author is, but outside the desired reality of most Christians), the un-Biblical interpretation of several key concepts and the supernatural and mystical aspects, as well as some strange ideas in the plot (the only factor that bothered me personally) - except that he was self-publishing, so his books disappeared in the massive competition available on the web. Anyway, what I´m getting at is that maybe I can help you - with the final proofread, certainly; with the final edit, probably; and with input on how to improve your book and make it stand out more, hopefully. Although I live in Brazil, I´m an American writer, editor, proofreader and translator, a native English speaker with excellent language skills and years of experience working on books and other texts. I use Word´s Track Changes to show you all my corrections and comments in your text. Please contact me for further discussion. Thanks, David

To Whom It May Concern: I am a professional copyeditor and proofreader with over seven years of experience, and I’d like to take a look at a sample of your manuscript to determine my eligibility for this position. In addition, you may find some examples of my previous work in my portfolio here on Freelancer, and I can provide more reviews upon request. I’m experienced in editing young adult, urban fantasy manuscripts, and I’m always open to working with authors long-term if you decide you want to hire me for the remaining two manuscripts. I do have a question about the type of editing you had completed before. What style was used? I edit using the Chicago Manual of Style for fiction as that’s the one commonly accepted by the New York Times and major publishers, but I’m comfortable using the other two (APA and MLA). I charge $0.005 per word for editing and proofreading, and I can have a 48,000-word manuscript completed within four days of contract acceptance. I’m not able to go below the minimum posted for this job, but my total bid would really be $240 for this project. If you have any questions for me, please feel free to reach out at any time. I look forward to seeing a sample! Thank you for your time and consideration. Sincerely, Nadene Seiters

I would be thrilled to help edit your fantasy book before e-publishing. If you are seeking general proofreading and sentence structure edits, I can have the manuscript spotless in 10 days with tracked changes for your review. If you are seeking feedback on things like pacing and consistency, I'm not afraid to offer constructive criticism and can offer extended reviews on each chapter. I believe that honest criticism is the best way to show respect for a writer and help them grow. I hope you'll let me contribute to your project. Best of luck to you.

I am a huge reader of fiction novels and often find mistakes in the books as I am reading. I read a lot of books on amazon kindle, and find it very frustrating to constantly find mistakes. I see them without even trying. I love to read and have reading "contests" with friends to see who can read a book more quickly. Time would be no issue in completing the project.
