Proofreading and editing
12
I will read over your written work and offer advice, critiques, and suggest changes for better flow, pacing, and word choice.
I find that this process works best in three steps- first, you describe to me your written work and the kind of editing you would like to receive. Often, writers already have concerns that they'd like to see addressed, and if I know those concerns beforehand, it becomes much easier to give you the feedback you're looking for.
Second, I estimate how long my services should take, given the length and complexity of the work. If you are paying in simbi, this determines the price. If we are exchanging services, then there's a little more negotiation :)
Third, I read the work and take detailed notes. I can deliver these to you via email, Skype, or any other messaging platform of your choice that can send and receive text files. We can have a short conversation about my feedback, and any additional questions, concerns, or thoughts about my feedback, and, if you'd like, we can negotiate for a "second pass." I'm committed to making your work shine!
