General Copy-editing and Proofreading

Writing & Translation

$30/hr Starting at $30

I maintain your unique voice while copy-editing and line-editing for clarity, cohesion, and style. I also proofread for typos and grammar errors. Here's my process: 1. An extensive pass through where I make sure the document flows, examine word choice, point out logic errors, tighten up sentences, and make a lot of the more complicated edits. 2. The next day (so my brain has forgotten the document and won't insert words where no words exist) I do a detailed, word-by-word sweep through for typos. 3. Depending on the deadline, I'll do a third proofread the next day or the day after for maximum typo-killing.

Miranda is an 11 on a scale of 1 to 10. Self starter that goes beyond the specs I gave her to understand the real problems, and then solved them. Excellent writing skills, good drawing skills, and she combined these to create many great blogs posts. Her artwork Immediately captured visitor's attention, and her well written content had them reading to the last sentence. Highly recommended. mark

It was easy to work with Miranda. She's straightforward and timely. She has a good system for editing books which includes excellent communication. She maintained communication with me throughout the whole process without being pushy and was very patient with all the changes in my timelines. I found her editing skills very good and she took the time to explain to me my recurrent mistakes so I could learn. She was open to discussion when I didn't agree on something and to provide different solutions. Developmental edits, copy edits and proof editing were great, although I would have appreciated even more stringent developmental edits.
