Posted over 7 years ago

$30-250 USD

Paid on delivery
I have written a children's book(6-7 years olds) which is less than 1500 words and only three pages. I need someone to do a developmental editing or a ghostwriter to change/remove unnecessary parts. The book teaches the kids difficult concept of computing. I want to make the words as simple as possible and as shorter as possible, but make sure that the concepts don't get changed. Also, I need someone who has experience of submitting books to children's book agents and publishers to help me to prepare that passionate letter for submission. (I attach some part of the book)

Hi, My name is Katrina Sisowath. I'm British-American, living in England. I am a published author of mythological fantasy and freelance editor. I edit and ghost-write children’s books and learning material, non-fiction and fiction of all genres. I was a preschool teacher, so know the linguistic capabilities of children in their early years and how to craft a book that appeals to them, using words and concepts they understand. I use the multiple pass approach, each time looking at a different aspect of the manuscript and conferring with you. If there's something I believe needs a complete overhaul, I will ask for your feedback first, but if it's a small addition, I will put it in myself and let you make the final decision on whether to include it. The last pass will be a final proofread to ensure there are no grammar or punctuation errors. Thank you for your time. With Regards, Katrina Sisowath

I love kids and very important thing for them to build a good foundation is from teaching them correctly. Their foundations starts with what they read, and what has been told by their teacher, parents and anybody they interact with while growing up. With such it is relevant for them to read correct book spellings and grammars. That is why i am here to help. I would love to be a part of children's education.

I am an English-speaking native (Australian), an English teacher of nine years, and a published academic writer. I am also a qualified computer programmer, with a Bachelor of Information Technology and Systems, and programming experience since I taught myself how to programme when I was in primary school. (That might prove very relevant to the task at hand!) I am equally comfortable with British and American forms of language, having worked in Australia and abroad. (Note my accreditation scores in academic writing, and US and UK English.) I am an avid essay writer with a particular interest in politics, education, ethics and the health sciences. I have a strong belief in Einstein's old adage that if you can't explain it to a six-year-old, you don't understand it well enough yourself. My writing style follows this philosophy. I am available for up to 30 hours per week, and my schedule is flexible. I invite you to contact me if you have any doubts, requests or questions related to your selection process. Thank you for your consideration. Sincerely, Peter O’Donnell.

I work in a library where I actually preform storytime on a regular basis. I read well over 300 children's books a year. I recommend children's books to families and I know what is actually read, enjoyed, and understood by children. I would be a large asset since I understand how the book will be viewed by children and parents.
