I am an English teacher, with a Master of Applied Linguistics. I am highly skilled in all areas of English spelling, grammar and vocabulary, and as a native speaker, will be able to ensure fluency and accuracy throughout your work. You will notice my excellent reputation on this site, and this reputation will be maintained with your project. I have edited a range of different text types, with at least one of the ebooks I have edited making the bestseller list in its category on Amazon.com. I am well-versed in the differences between US, UK, Australian, Canadian and NZ spelling systems, and as such, will be able to pick up on all mistakes within your work, as well as make suggestions for improvement. As the final run-through of your book, I am also able to offer formatting as part of the service. In particular, I can create and edit a hyperlinked contents page, as well as create page numbers and section breaks in digital documents, if you are intending to use it as an ebook. I will use the 'track changes' feature in Microsoft Word for all changes made, and you can expect to receive the completed work within 5 days.

Hello, The project looks very interesting to me. I would like to have a go at it. Here are some further points that I think will bring more clarity: 1. It would be great if you can freeze the titles of the different chapters. This will become the ToC (Table of Contents) for the work, and we can both measure the output with the ToC. 2. What is your deadline delivery expectation for this work? 3. What is your preference for output format? Is MsWord 2007 .docx (or .doc?, or .pdf) file okay, or any other. 4. Are you also looking to embellish the book with stock images which readers find easy to relate to and make the running black-and-white content less monotonous? This can be arranged from the license-free public internet. After receiving your inputs on the above, I shall be in a position to calculate the bid estimate. Regards, IBArena

Hello, I will be happy to edit your self-help book. I enjoy editing the self-help genre, and will give your book a careful, thorough edit. I work through three websites, Freelancer.com, Upwork dot com and Guru dot com. Comments from my clients include, "“A very excellent freelancer. She went the extra mile to do a great editing/proofreading work within a very short period of time. She is highly recommended!” (Freelancer.com) "Good job! Timely and great quality. Thanks Julie!" (Upwork dot com) " "Julie Webb has done an excellent job with editing my ebook. She went beyond editing to make valuable recommendations on the structure and technical aspects of the book. She delivered well before the deadline, is very friendly to work with and has an eye for minute details. Thanks Julie." My work is careful and thorough. My services include checking and correcting the grammar, spelling, punctuation, syntax, and sentence structure. Since this is a non-fiction book I will also look for duplication of material within the text (such as the same sentence used in different chapters), and any contradictions in the text (which can happen due to typing errors). Unlike some “editors” I will not run your text through a software program, accept all the changes, and send it back to you. I will read your manuscript myself, carefully, and make changes manually. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. It is easy to reach me here on Freelancer.com. Julie Webb
