Hi All, I will soon publish one book on Amazon, and would need a native speaker to help proofread it. I am a German native speaker with advanced English, but might still have made some mistakes. The book deals about veganism and has appr. 16000 words. I am not in a hurry. I would like to find someone reliable to help with this.

Hello, I would be happy to proofread your book about veganism for you. As your proofreader, I would correct the grammar, spelling, punctuation, syntax, sentence structure and paragraphing, fix any repeated or overused words and sentences that are too long, hard to understand, or awkward. Your book will be clear and well-written when I am finished. Let me introduce myself. My name is Julie Webb, and I’m a professional editor and proofreader with 36 years of experience, which includes editing/proofreading nonfiction, fiction and self-help books, thesis papers at the, peer-reviewed journal articles, and textbooks. English is my native language and my Bachelor's degree is in English. I use Microsoft Word with the Track Changes feature turned on. Last year I proofread 27 books. My work is careful, thorough and of excellent quality, as shown in my ratings. Here at Freelancer.com my work has earned a 4.9 out of 5 rating from my 162 clients, as shown at https://www.freelancer.com/u/jw010699.html. My Repeat Hire Rate is 24%, which is very high compared to my peers. My clients have commented, "This is my third time working with Julie, she has done a good job and took care of the details. I definitely recommend her to others who need their work polished.” “Julie does excellent and professional work.” "This was really excellent work. I will hire her again." I would enjoy proofreading your manuscript and hope to hear from you soon. Congratulations on your new book! Julie Webb

Hi, I can do a really great job with proofreading your book on veganism. I currently run my own editing business, where I routinely proof and edit all kinds of texts: essays, dissertations/theses, fiction, articles, etc.. I’ve worked as an editor on two fiction magazines in recent years. Some details about me: - Native English speaker - BA and MA degrees (English), CELTA qualified - Published novelist, short story writer and poet - Managed an editing and proofreading service for several years I have put in a fairly low bid in order to be competitive on Freelancer, but please don't wonder if this will affect the quality of the work. I am dedicated to my business and would be happy to work with you to get the work done to a high standard by your deadline or sooner. For testimonials, please view my profile or visit my website: STPediting(dot)wordpress(dotcom)/testimonials/ I will: - Check your book for spelling, punctuation and grammatical errors - Assist with flow/clarity - Assist with structure and graphology/layout - Work to your specifications and deadlines Please consider me for the job. I look forward to hearing from you. Kind regards, David

Hi There, I will take 2 weeks to proofread and edit. My style is to do one round of proofreading/edit and then wait a few days and go back to it to complete it thoroughly. I am experienced in these sorts of projects and my current project involves a 65,000-word book edit. I line edit my work and not skim through. You will get a properly edited copy back. In return, you will receive 2 copies. 1 with tracked changes and the other a clean copy. Thanks, Hemina

Hi. Although I live in Brazil, I´m American, a native English speaker with excellent language skills and years of experience proofreading manuscripts and other texts, especially for authors for whom English is a second language. I use Track Changes to show my corrections of English grammar, spelling, punctuation, vocabulary, sentence structure and clarity of expression, so that your text will look natural for English-language readers, and I always offer comments and suggestions for improving what you have written without interfering in your own personal style. My family is vegan, so I´m very familiar with the subject matter as well. I am currently finishing the edits on 2 fantasy novels and a non-fiction book on intuition for some Slovenian clients, so completing your job in 2 weeks would be difficult, but if you can extend that deadline, I would very much like to work on your book with you. After you contact me, I can send samples of previous work, or I´d be glad to proofread 1-2 pages as a free sample of the quality of my work. Please contact me on this, and send along the pages of your choice for testing me, if you´re interested. Best, David

If you're looking for a person that has a good mix of skill and experience to handle your book, then you're in the right place and speaking to the right person. As you can see by my portfolio, proofreading is something I've been doing professionally for quite a number of years. Over this time I have worked on various projects including contract drafting, final college essays, and a host of books as well. I welcome the chance to speak with you more about this book regardless of your choice, I hope that your novel will be a success. Thanks for your time and consideration.
