To Whom It May Concern: I am a professional line editor, copy editor, and proofreader with over seven years of experience editing non-fiction and fiction manuscripts. I’m willing to complete a sample edit of your manuscript to help determine my eligibility for this position. Interestingly, I’ve applied for your project before: I believe it may have been on a different site a few weeks ago. However, I’m still willing to submit a separate sample edit again. I use the Chicago Manual of Style, Sixteenth Edition for editing manuscripts as that is the one required by popular publishers and review publications. However, I am familiar with other styles, so if you have another preference, please do let me know. I have noticed your manuscript is in British English, which I am familiar with if you want to keep it in that vernacular. Otherwise, I can switch the spelling to American English if you would like. I’d charge ₹30722.22 for editing and formatting your document for Createspace, as well as Amazon’s eBook requirements, and I can have 83,000 words edited within one week of contract acceptance. After you accept or reject the edits as you see fit, I can move on to formatting. Thank you for your time and consideration! Sincerely, Nadene Seiters

Dear Sir, I'm interested in your book for several reasons. Firstly, I also have a background and experience in wildlife conservation & management, though in different parts of teh world. I did, however, spent some time in the forests of Kerala and some (deforested) parts of Rajasthan (where Bhil tribes lived) over fifteen years ago. A translator and editor for the past ten years, it would therefore be very interesting to me to edit your book. Additionally, I would also be interested in discussing a translation into French as some former colleagues and I are thinking of starting a project to make environmental books from around the world more readily available to the French public. Anyhow. Would be delighted to assist & discuss. Sincerely, S.
