Building Portfolio - Free/Pay-as-you-wish Copyediting & Proofreading

[Ann]

Hello! I am currently an Editor in an academic book publishing company seeking to dabble in freelancing. I have experience copyediting and proofreading academic and general books, but I would like to expand my scope editing other genres as well. I am a native English speaker, and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts.

In order to gain more experience and exposure, improve my skills, build my portfolio and expand my network, I would be very happy to edit/proofread for free, or you can pay me as you wish. I would also be very appreciative if you could give me feedback/comments/write a testimonial afterwards if you are satisfied with my work. I'm also very open to tips on how I can improve as a freelancer.

Thank you very much for your time! Please feel free to contact me should you have any tasks you would like to discuss :)

Hello Ann! I am currently searching for a proofreader for my 110K words debut fantasy novel.
The MS has been copy edited, and I need a fresh pair of eyes to make sure everything is alright.
I am not a native English speaker, so I would welcome the proofreader paying special attention to the word usage and not native speaker specific grammar issues (article usage etc.).
I work in British English.

If required, I would be happy to provide a story description and/or sample pages.

If you are interested, please contact me at ekaterina.gennrich@gmail.com. I’m looking forward to hearing from you!
