I have a novel, almost finished, 100,000 words. Hard commercial thriller type. I have had it looked at by a small circle of friends and family but the feedback is not detailed. I need to be told where the writing and plotting falls down as well as have poorly constructed sections (e.g. 'there was a man standing on the other side of the wall as she looked at the other side of the road') identified.

Hi there, I have been an avid reader since I was a young child and remain a true bibliophile. I love reading thrillers and crime novels amongst other genres so you could say I have the 'experience' needed. I will be able to give you feedback both as a consumer as well as technical proofreader. I have an excellent command of the English language and work as Trainee Solicitor in a West End London law firm so I also have a keen eye for detail and will be able to advise on any inconsistencies and make suggestions accordingly. My bid is considerably lower than the others because not only would this be my first Freelancer job (I joined yesterday) but I will actually enjoy reading your work. I do read very quickly and may finish it sooner than the 5 days but I would want to write up the comments properly for you and double check them before sending it back so I have allowed a little extra time. Please do consider me for this. Kind regards, Nicki

Hi, I'd like to take a look at your novel. I've recently done a few on this site. Please take a look at my reviews. I also have lots of experience outside of this site - writing, editing, teaching writing, doing manuscript consultations. I can give you full feedback and guidance - including grammar etc. with Track Changes - unless you don't want the line editing at this stage. Would you be wanting that in U.K. or U.S. English? Since I"m Canadian I'm in between. Thanks.

Hiya! I also write online novels based on thriller and mystery, so I think I can be of great help. Creative writing is one of my favourite past times and I am actually also looking for ways to improve my own. I have a keen eye on mistakes and errors. With this, I am able to give constructive criticism according to said, error.

I completed my M.A. in English Literature from Delhi University in the year 2013 with an overall percentage of 59.25%, and was also selected for the 'NBT Training Course in Book Publishing' in July, 2012, after which I was taken in as an intern by Om Books for two months. I worked in the same company as editor for one and a half months as well. As you may remember, I also worked on one assignment ('Translating a Nation, Just One Life and Other Stories') as a freelance proofreader for Tulika Books, New Delhi. Furthermore, I have edited a book describing the paintings of Raghogarh, Madhya Pradesh, and worked as a freelance copy-editor for Thakur Publishers, Lucknow, for a brief period of time. I am quite interested in academics and fond of learning in general, and one of the reasons I wish to work as a freelance editor or proofreader is that it will allow me the opportunity to read a variety of books and engage with fresh, new ideas. If selected, I will try my best to contribute to the quality of your project.

I'm extremely adept in editing fiction on all levels, including: *developmental aspects relating to overarching plot, character and theme threads as well as subtler aspects like sub-plots *sentence mechanics and line by line copy editing to find all minor nits and typos as well as poor writing habits like overuse of passive voicing, speech tags, adverbs, repeated words, etc. *optimizing verb choices (replacing weak verbs with stronger ones) *improving pacing *style: tonal consistency and polished narrative voicing * nuances: recommending places to insert similes and ways to enhance literary quality and caliber * proofreading For a book fo this length, editing for all those aspects would normally cost most than the quote I have made in this bid. However, I am flexible and willing to negotiate and streamline a custom-tailored editing style to suit your needs and preferences as well as your budget. If you would like to discuss the fees and delivery time further, feel free to send me a message. I am a great communicator and easy to work with. I've a gift for intuitively tuning in to each client's needs and voice and can also offer ghostwriting in places, if desired. I work in Microsoft Word using the track changes tool and would be working in cooperation with you, collaboratively, for as long as it takes to get your book polished to its best potential. Timing and fees can be adjusted accordingly,. I work with intense integrity and sincerity. Fiction is my favorite genre. :)

I've taken classes on writing fiction novels, learning a few tricks from a published author that I'm more than happy to pass along. I'm not a grammar specialist but I can see plot holes and quite a few things that will make editors not look twice at your work. I am currently hosting an Author's club at my home which has publish authors and professional editors in it. I've been learning a great deal from them as well as realizing I'm better at pointing out flaws to others than I am at avoiding them in my own writing. I'm a new user to freelancer so I apologize if I've miss something, please feel free to contact me with questions. I am a homeschool mom so my reading/editing time will be worked in around schooling my two littles. I would expect to take 2-3 weeks to be finished with your novel. I would expect you to email me your work in a double spaced MSword doc or a PDF that would be simple to make commentary on, I'm open to other easy to use formats as well but my editing surpasses my computer skills! Looking forward to reading your work! Jana

Hi there, I am a professional editor and proofreader based in Australia. I can also offer manuscript critiques, which sounds like what you are looking for. A manuscript critique will involve a thorough and detailed read-through, followed by notes on: • Conflict; eg Is there an overarching conflict present in the story that is key to the premise and grows to a climax and resolution? • Plot; eg Does the overall plot come across clearly in the novel? • Pacing; eg How does the pacing of the story feel? • Tension; eg Is tension created at the outset of the book? • Settings/locations; eg Does the author portray a believable, interesting setting that draws the reader in? • Point of View; eg Is there only one POV character in each scene and is their “voice” distinct from all other POVs? • Voice; eg Does the overall tone and style of the writing work well for the story? • Characters; eg Does each character have depth—a past, a need, a fear, a dream—and are these brought out clearly in the story? • Dialogue; eg Does each characters’ speech and style of talking fit their personality? If you would like any more information, please contact me and I would be happy to answer any questions. I can then send through my resume, if you like. Thanks, Tanya

I have a lot of experience giving feedback on writing in specialized writing groups. I've worked with traditionally published and indie published authors. We will not only get it cleaned up, I'll teach you how to make your writing more powerful. I don't usually work freelance, but am looking to pick up some extra cash and your project sounds like doing what I love. I've proposed a 1st chapter milestone because that will give you a chance to see early on if you like working with me and if my editing meets your needs.

I am capable for this job!!! I will build your novel with A-B A-B, I pretty much imagine the plot would be like The Shawshank Redemption, in order to fish curiosity of the reader an to make the story interesting, because at the end we will reach the peak of the conflict or story. You can contact me further more to discuss this project.
