As
an experienced college freshman composition teacher, I
can quickly help you spot and correct the most common
problem errors of beginning writers in the areas of
punctuation, voice, transitions, agreement, spelling, and
overwriting.
My
specialty is proofreading and helping the new or
inexperienced creative or academic writer prepare his or
her fiction/non-fiction or dramatic manuscript for
submission to a journal, an agent or a publisher. (All
genres: adventure, historical, romance, erotica, horror,
etc.) I will read your manuscript at least twice,
searching for, correcting, and marking typos, spelling
errors, grammatical and punctuation errors, and details
of manuscript form. I will not rewrite your manuscript,
but I will look for inconsistencies and story or
character problems and point those out to you. I will
have your manuscript edited and returned to you within
two weeks of receipt. I also can transform your Microsoft
Word document into an ebook ready to market on the web.
