Hi,
I can do a great job with editing your poetry. I currently run my own editing business, where I routinely proof and edit all kinds of texts: essays, dissertations/theses, fiction, poetry, 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 poems for UK spelling, punctuation and grammatical errors, without impinging on your poetical voice
- Assist with flow/clarity of ideas and imagery
- Assist with structure
- Work to your specifications and deadlines
Please note that poetry is obviously very subjective and personal. I'd aim to fix any fundamental errors in spelling, grammar (where it isn't an apparently stylistic choice) and imagery (mixed or broken metaphors/similies), and I would try to draw out the meaning and themes on your poems if they aren't clear.
Please consider me for the job. I look forward to hearing from you.
David
