I have the first short story (approximately 3,500 words) of a series that needs a copy edit and proofreading. Your frank thoughts on the plot would also be appreciated. The story is centered in the Washington DC area, so editors with knowledge of the surrounding area is a plus. Include the phrase 'the editor you've been looking for' in the opening section of your proposal.

The editor you've been looking for.... is me, I hope. Hi, I'd love to work on this project with you. I am a huge fan of short stories, and am published in this area myself. I have a media and communications background, with lots of experience copywriting and editing. I am also a screenwriter and have a full understanding of narrative concepts, theme development, plot etc. so overall, I feel I would be a great editor o your current text. I can be quite critical, however, be warned, and tend to pick up on minuscule details. But if that is what you are looking for then you have found the right person. PS. I am in Ireland so don't have local knowledge of DC. I can make up for that with my knowledge of narrative styling/technique, however, and have no problem editing to US English. I look forward to hearing form you on this, and best of luck if you choose to go with another editor.

I am the editor you’ve been looking for. I am an experienced copyeditor and fiction writer, with a BA in Creative Writing from the Evergreen State College. English is my native language. I live in Washington, DC, and have done so for some time. I have ample experience with in-depth line editing. I was the Managing Editor of the Administrative Law Review, and have performed countless editing jobs for government and non-profit organizations. I also taught Writing, Research, and Rhetoric at American University's law school. This experience has allowed me to hone my proofreading and grammatical skills to a meticulous degree. I have a lot of experience in critiquing manuscripts and providing thorough, and constructive, feedback. I would be very excited for the opportunity to work on this project. Although I have many years of editing experience, I am recently trying to break into the freelancing business. I am willing to work at a low rate to gain positive feedback and build a good reputation on the site. I am happy to edit a page of your manuscript as an evaluation. You won't be disappointed! Please contact me if you would like to discuss further.

I am the editor you've been looking for because I have edited and proofread many short stories, and my family currently lives in the DC area. I will be visiting DC in a few weeks, so I could even edit your story in the area itself. I would provide quality and prompt feedback. I recently graduated with a minor in editing, and I just completed work as an editor with MTC Development, where we proofread and copy-edited materials for a training seminar. For years I have read and provided feedback on short stories and novels written by friends and family. I look forward to discussing this project with you further. Please see my resume and portfolio for additional experience and qualifications.

Greetings: I'd be happy to be a second set of eyes on your story and I know from my 25+ years as an editor you would be happy with the result. I work in Delaware, visit D.C. often and spent a semester there in college living in Alexandria. I make words work, and help writers build stories that grab, hold and satisfy readers. My attention to detail is keen; my sense of varied audience tastes acute. If rewrite is needed, my hand is deft, but always attuned to writer voice and intent. I'm not the star. I'm very comfortable with that. A writer simply can’t afford little hiccups like word drops, spelling errors or name/place inconsistencies that yank a reader away from the story and break the spell. I’ll comb your copy to make sure that doesn't happen with your story. Unlike most, I do three full passes when proofing: A straight read to absorb the full story, style and pacing; a screen edit and then a pencil edit of a printout. Anyone who doesn't do a hard-copy final read will miss things, for our brains have been trained by TV and web surfing to skim when staring at a screen. I've worked with hundreds of writers and they would tell you I have helped them with pacing, dialogue, word economy and tense. They also learned how to better approach story structure and composition. I would be happy to add any advice in those areas. I'd be happy to provide editing samples if you are interested and am available to respond to any questions. Good luck with the book. Doug Williams

The editor you've been looking for is right here in the D.C. area. I'm a Maryland native and would be tickled to proof your story and provide feedback. I will return clean, correct copy along with my honest (but constructive) opinions. I'm hoping to start freelancing by making a great impression with your story, so I'm putting in a reasonably low bid. Thanks for giving me a chance -- I will do my best to make you happy you did so.
