The project I am working on is a biography about my grandfather, who had an interesting history and served as a Jewish community leader and Rabbi in Scandinavia from 1911 until his death in 1955. My so-called mother-tongue is west-European, but not English; however, I dare say that although I am a relatively reasoable English-speaker/writer, I certainly need someone to carry out professional English editing. My contents is rich with Jewish/Hebrew/Yiddish terminology, the contents of which I myself am proficient in. Although not a necessity, a Jewish cultural/religious background or proficiency would self-evidently be beneficial. Attached file contains a few sample pages of the first part of one chapter in the present-stage manuscript. It is far from being finished at my end and is only supplied for the purpose of understanding the project. Presently, I need to budget the book project, and my expectation is to receive a ballpark quote. It doesn’t have to be exact, but the price-per-parameter element has to be clear. E.g. regular text sections, illustration description text, index, bibliography etc. Presently, I do not need a quote for the graphic formatting. In order to consider the quote, I have to understand what aspects will be included in the quoted service, such as line editing, copy editing, proofreading etc. Also, if your language is British or American English; both are options that can be considered. In addition to the sample pages, I am enclosing a file, Chapter pages [login to view URL], which is preliminary and somehow intelliguessed. It will be updated during 2020, as the different chapters start to close.

Hi there This sounds like a brilliant project, and as someone who is descended from Polish Jews, I'm very interested indeed to find out more. I've been an editor for 10 years; prior to that, I was a lecturer in English and Creative Writing. I also have a Master's in Linguistics. When I say "editing" I mean grammatical and linguistic corrections, structure, flow, lexical choices, register and consistency. Formatting is an extra that I can discuss with you separately, and I can also help out with publishing queries and proposal documents if needed. I have worked on several biographies so i have a lot to contribute to layout and linguistic convention in particular. As far as my rate goes, I quote $12 per 1000 words but if this is a very long manuscript, there is scope to reduce that slightly. I'm British so I work in British English, but if you decide you would rather work in US English, I am equally proficient. Get in touch to discuss the project in more detail and let's talk through a sample together. Kind Regards, Simon Richardson

Hi! I've looked through the materials you've provided and believe we could be a good fit, as I've helped more than 50 books to publication in the last few years. I'd need to see more of the manuscript, but from the sample, I don't think you'll need much in the way of developmental editing; instead, you'll primarily need a mix of copy editing, fact checking, and proofreading, all of which I can offer. My current bid is for a full copy edit of the entire (roughly 66,000-word) manuscript, to be completed within two weeks of delivery. (While less than my normal rates, I'm interested in your grandfather's story, and would like to help it toward publication.) Provided you're happy with my work, we can progress from there to fact checking and proofreading and otherwise preparing your manuscript for publication. Please reach out so we can discuss further in private chat. I'm happy to answer questions about how I work, how I think we might work well together, and more. I'm also happy to share samples of previous work and client testimonials. Thank you for your time and consideration, and I hope we get the chance to talk more soon!

Hi! I have checked your project details on this manuscript editing and proofreading. I have checked the sample and the time, so far they are clear enough. Who are the readers? I'm happy to guide you depending on your needs, whether that's a light touch to help you get rid of grammatical errors or a more comprehensive edit including rewriting parts of your work. How much time we have? I specialize in writing eBooks, short stories, and other form of creative writing. I also enjoy working on proofreading, developmental editing, and copyediting. In my 7 years of freelancing experience, I have written more than 45 eBooks across several niches starting from immigration law to technology and human wellbeing. Let's talk about how I can help you!

Hello, I am Noel, the Word Smith and a Creative Ghost Writer. Why are you so passionate about writing? That’s the question among many of my peers, colleagues, and friends. But that’s how I have been cultured; my father inculcated in us, a reading spirit, which developed into writing for me.  Writing is a passion and “Passion Drives Purpose.” Noel writes with a purpose. I am so passionate about writing that I derive my purpose from it.  I write to appeal, convince, motivate, empathize, counsel, warn, deride, and above all, educate. I am a diverse niche writer. We all are not writers, that’s where I come in; do not struggle when I can drown all your sorrows. Is it a book, a story, a biography, a dedication… name it; I can handle the writing for you, all I need is your idea to turn it into a sassy read. Kind regards, Noel Reuben.

I am a native Jewish American living in France where I continue to practice my religion as well as possible. My mother's parents emigrated from Latvia during the First World War and spoke Yiddish. Therefore I have a basic vocabulary. I have both French and American diplomas. As a translator and proofreader, I specialize in literary content. One of my most passionate missions was the translation of : « Ma jeunesse à l’envers » / « My youth upside down », by Maurice Fajerman 70pp Autobiographical text of a man who lived through so many major dramas and upheavals of the 20th century that he was at first ashamed to have survived... Reading between the lines, we realize that miracles do exist. I would prefer seeing some more examples of the text before making an estimate.

Yes, you are right! Please don't panic. I put that price intentionally just to get your attention. I'm new here and I don’t buy reviews. So, I have no other option:) The project description lacks a few information, like an outline and reader's demography. I could have attached some of my past work for you to have some confidence but, there’s no attachment button. Better if you go for the chat option and I can share some of my past work. Surely, you will have a better understanding of my writing style. Thanks in advance!

Hi, I feel that I am well positioned to work with you on your project. I am Australian and Jewish, of Polish background, and use British English in day to day writing (but am also proficient in American English). I am currently working on a book to film adaptation of a Jewish-themed non-fiction bestseller that the New York Times named one of the "Top 100 books of the century". This text is quite dense and as a result I am familiar with much of the terminology, as well as from a personal perspective as my family came to Australia from Eastern Europe in 1947. I'm unclear from the project brief how long the duration of the task would be (and when you require the editing to be completed), but I have submitted a bid based on editing the manuscript in full. If you would like me to submit a sample edit based on the chapter you've provided, please let me know.
