Hello, David!
My name is Nadene Seiters, and I’m a professional line editor, copy editor, and proofreader with over seven years of experience working with fiction and non-fiction manuscripts. I use the Chicago Manual of Style, Seventeenth Edition for fiction manuscripts as that’s the one currently used by major publishers and review publications (the New York Times), but I’m comfortable with others if you prefer another style.
Examples of my previous work can be found in my portfolio; however, I’d love to complete a sample edit of your manuscript, and I’m willing to sign a nondisclosure agreement before I see any part of it. I’m most comfortable with Microsoft Word, but I can work with Google Docs and PDFs as well. A sample can be sent to me here on Freelancer through the messaging system.
I have edited male-on-male erotica in the past and can pinpoint you directly to some client reviews left on other platforms for projects that pertained to that genre.
My rate is $0.005 per word for editing and proofreading, and per your message, I've revised my bid to $410 as the total cost of the project. I can still complete it within seven days of contract acceptance, and don't worry about the holidays. I've made corrections to my timeframe for those.
Thank you for your time and consideration!
Sincerely,
Nadene Seiters
