Dear friend, I understand that you require a professional editor, who can do a round of substantive editing on your manuscript. I assume that your manuscript is not copyedited yet - and that is good - here is why: Substantive editing may involve restructuring or rewriting part or all of a document. A related edit is the language edit, which is concerned with how ideas are expressed. For example: 1. Sentence complexity and use of active or passive verbs 2. Conciseness 3. Clear, logical development of ideas 4. Use of jargon or technical terms appropriate for the intended audience (Much of the language edit is a subset of work generally considered to be copy editing, but it may also be done as part of substantive editing.) As mentioned above, rewriting is also considered a part of substantive editing. Additionally, revisions and formatting for both digital and paperback publication are also included. About me: I am ranked as one of the best writers/editors on freelancer.com. I have edited more than 60 manuscripts and have ghostwritten 87 books. You can check my experience by seeing my profile and portfolio. Please feel free to ask any questions, Kind regards, Zack Khan

The author of seven published novels (see my freelancer bio for details), I have over ten years editing and proofreading experience. In that time, I have worked with all kinds of different authors - from first time writers to the more established - writing in all kinds of different genres: fiction, non-fiction, academic, self-help, cookbooks, religious texts etc. Conversant with all publishing industry standards, I will undertake three separate edits of your manuscript. Firstly, a basic edit to eradicate any typos, grammatical errors etc. Secondly, a more creative edit, to look at lapses in expressive, word choice. And finally, a final edit to give the m/s that professional polish. In addition, I will provide an interim m/s assessment within 48 hrs of receipt and update you with any changes/areas I feel need collaborative attention.

I am new to Freelancer, but I have a lot of experience proofreading and editing papers, essays, and books for my colleagues and friends. If you choose me for this editing job, I will give your health and well-being book my utmost attention so that I can help you make it as good as possible. Of course, I will look for typographical errors and misspellings, but I will also help you assess the readability of your writing and offer alternatives to improve the reader’s understanding and enjoyment. The delivery time in my bid is when I will send you my first set of edits. Because I do not know how long your book is or how much work it will need, I cannot guess as to how long it will take me to completely finish, but I guarantee I will communicate with you frequently so that you can begin making the suggested edits and provide me with feedback regarding the quality of my suggestions. I look forward to the opportunity to help you improve your book. Regardless of whom you choose, I congratulate you on completing the writing stage and I wish you the best of luck in the editing and publishing stages!
