Summary

**Human Content Editor for Parent-Facing Therapy Articles — Two-Article Trial** I have several articles for a parent-facing pediatric therapy website that were created with the help of AI. The research and basic content are there, but the writing is pretty bad. Some of it is awkward, repetitive, overly complicated, or full of vague headings and phrases that sound like obvious AI content. I’m looking for an experienced editor who can turn these drafts into clear, natural, useful articles that are easy for parents to understand. This requires real human judgment and sentence-by-sentence editing. I’m not looking for someone to run the articles through another generative AI tool. I’ll provide: * The current article draft * A detailed brief for each article * The sources and citations included with the content * Examples of the writing style and voice I want * Occasional comments or instructions when an article needs something specific I’d like to begin with a paid trial of two articles. Each finished article should be approximately 1,500–2,000 words. If we work well together, I’ll have additional articles that need the same type of editing. **What I need you to do:** * Rewrite awkward, unnatural, or confusing sentences * Remove repetition, filler, generic advice, and obvious AI-style language * Make the content easy for parents and other general readers to understand * Improve the organization and flow where needed * Rewrite vague, awkward, or overly clever headlines and subheadings * Make every section self-contained: the text under each heading should directly and fully answer the question in the heading or clearly define and explain the concept named in the heading * Use a conversational, straightforward, and respectful tone * Preserve the intended meaning and important factual details * Keep existing citations and source links connected to the relevant information * Address any specific comments or instructions included in the document * Avoid adding new claims, recommendations, statistics, or other information All rewritten language must be original and plagiarism-free. Sources should never be copied or closely paraphrased. **Deliverables:** * Two clean, publication-ready `.docx` files * Approximately 1,500–2,000 words per finished article * Original, plagiarism-free writing * All instructions included in the documents (if any) addressed Relevant experience can include editing consumer websites, educational articles, service-based content, parenting content, healthcare content, or other writing intended for a general audience. Healthcare experience is helpful, but it isn’t required. Strong consumer-facing editing experience is more important. When applying, please include: 1. One or two relevant consumer-facing editing examples. Healthcare or parent-facing examples are welcome but aren’t required. 2. Confirmation that you will personally edit the articles and will not use generative AI to rewrite them. 3. Your fixed-price quote for both trial articles. 4. Your estimated turnaround time for both articles.
