Editor Needed: Nonfiction Business Book (Marketing), ~43,000 Words
Only freelancers located in the U.S. may apply.U.S. located freelancers only
I’ve written a nonfiction business book about marketing leadership. 12 chapters plus an introduction and appendix, roughly 43,000 words. It’s been through multiple drafts and it’s in strong shape. I need a final editorial pass before publication. The grammar and spelling should be mostly clean. What I actually need is a close read for flow, comprehension, and tone. The voice is conversational, direct, and occasionally funny (at least I think so). If your instinct is to formalize casual writing, this isn’t the right project for you. If interested, please reply with 3 bullet points demonstrating why you’re the right editor for this book, plus your availability, timeline and rate for 43,000 words. I’m looking for someone who will be honest about what’s working and what’s not working, not someone who returns the manuscript with fifty comma fixes and a thumbs up.
