Hello, I understand that a copy and paste article may need to undergo several modifications for it to pass copyscape. I will modify, edit proofread and re-write the article to meet the required specifications. I will also seek to correct grammar errors and overall try to refine the English language. Regards, Garon Helton

I am an experienced editor with a keen eye for detail, originally from England (which I understand puts me at a disadvantage, but I thought I would offer my services anyway). Before doing this, I helped develop campaign literature for political parties in England, which leaves me well placed to help you edit your work: it requires the same honesty and critical rigour. If awarded your project, I will communicate with you to ensure that we achieve an outstanding edit. Finally, although not Australian as a lefty I am quite interested in Australia's relationship with the Aborigines and would love to help.

Hi, I would like to work with you on your memoir. I have edited several memoirs over the past year - including my own. I am a university-educated native English speaker. I have lots of experience outside of this site - writing, editing, teaching creative writing and doing manuscript consultations. I would use track changes and provide comments alongside the text and a separate letter with suggestions. Please see my reviews and portfolio on my profile page. Thank you.

Hi there. I would like to help you. I am an exceptional editor and proofreader. I am very thorough too. I have edited over 100 theses/dissertations, books, websites, apps, blogs, and articles. I have also written several academic articles and I delve in creative writing from time to time too. Quality takes time, hence the time frame quoted, however, I do aim to have the task completed before then. I would like to see the document and discuss further terms with you; please contact me. Kind regards, Kevin
