I am looking to hire a "book doctor" for an 89,000 word novel that is going to be self published. In addition to being a copy editor, I want someone with experience in the Print-On-Demand process, including determining a style guide and formatting for POD. The ideal candidate will have be able to recommend a graphic artist for front and back covers, and be able to manage the entire process from the current ("final") manuscript to the published product. N.B. The budget listed for this project is a placeholder. I have no idea if it is appropriate. All proposals are welcome.

Until recently, I edited and published travel guides (for 23 years). This entailed working with printers, collaborating with graphic artists to design covers and interior pages, proofreading and editing, and handling distribution and marketing. Before I stopped publishing, I was getting ready to switch completely to POD, so I have a considerable background of knowledge on this process. I also currently work both as a copywriter and a critiquer of book manuscripts, mostly fiction. My experience in the business encompasses every capability necessary to get your book into publishable form. I have a number of testimonials from writers on my insight as a critiquer and on my writing. Most importantly, there is a fiduciary element to the task you propose. You need to know that I am someone who will follow through on every facet of the project honorably. Here is an example of the way I handle business relationships: The printer I worked with did something highly unusual for the printing business: He never required my signature when I placed an order to print my books. On my word, alone, he would order two railroad cars of paper that could not have been used elsewhere, should I have ever cancelled. Regards, Maryann Frati

I’d like to tackle your project. I bring to this project quality, experience and 25 years of ghostwriting books the reader can't put down -- and helping authors get published in the U.S., Europe and Latin America. Before that, I spent 11 years as a reporter and copy editor at a major daily newspaper. Who have I worked for? -- A dozen books over a decade for New York Times bestselling author Nicky Cruz of "The Cross and the Switchblade" and "Run Baby Run" fame -- including sequels "Devil on the Run," "Give Me Back My Dignity," and "How to Fight Back" published here and in Europe and Latin America. -- Daily CNN radio scripts for Phil Drummond. -- Co-author of Art Blajos’ acclaimed “Blood In, Blood Out” autobiography of an LA street kid turned Mexican Mafia hitman. -- Co-author of Dan Lewin’s “From Holocaust to Hallelujah,” inspirational account of a child survivor of the Nazi Holocaust. -- Multiple books for Los Angeles' Victory Outreach founder Sonny Arguinzoni. -- Contributing editor to multiple academic reference works, including “First, Second and Third Industrial Revolutions,” “Historical Dictionary of Sino-American Relations,” “A House Divided: During the Civil War” and “Encyclopedia of Politics: The Left and Right.” -- Multiple books for LeSea Broadcasting founder Dr. Lester Sumrall. -- Two decades of producing a 20-page monthly tabloid for Dr. Billy James Hargis, who fought the Fairness Doctrine all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court. A lot of these are featured on the PublicationsTechnologies website. I’ll give you experience, a compelling read, quick turnaround and professionality. Growing up at a daily newspaper, I thrive on deadline pressure. Let me know and I’ll send you three samples of recent rewrite projects as well as the first chapter and cover of "From Holocaust to Hallelujah." I also have years of experience in getting books ready to go to press. I am confident that I can help yours ready in a way that will please you.

For me, writing is not a vocation, it is a passion. I am a writer with more than ten years experience in editing, transcription and proofreading. My skills also lie in the area of creative writing, poetry, short stories, and anecdotes. I have done projects like this numerous times and have received much acclaim. I'm currently doctoring five POD books. I have an eye for details and I get a thrill out of taking a manuscript and transforming it into a work of art. I give a task my full focus until it is perfected, complete and the absolute best I can make it. With my combination of disciplined work ethic, professionalism, and passion for each assignment, I am confident that you will be satisfied and impressed with the results. I am also a graphic designer and can do the designs for you as well!

Very wise choice to seek this service. A friend of mine using a POD service about five years ago ended up with hundreds of typos when it went to press, and had no recourse due to his contract. My personal experience in this exceeds POD. My bid assumes the manuscript is in the worst possible condition.

Hello, I'm interested in editing your novel. I'm a freelance editor and I can edit as light or as heavy as you need. I've also self-published before, so I can turn the manuscript into a print-ready book. My bid covers this, as I will be hiring subcontractors here in the Philippines.
