My name is Sandra Grecki, I am a native German, born in Essen (NRW), and I have been living in the US since 2012. Prior to my move to the States I worked in London for almost 12 years, so my English is as fluent as my German - written and spoken. I have been working as a Freelancer with the main focus on translations on different platforms for well over 20 years now and started to do it professionally in 2012. Over the last few years I have mainly focused on translating numerous novels by US bestselling authors, and worked on well over fifty books and complete series, which are all available on Amazon. Portfolio only shows some of them, and I am happy to provide links, when requested. Due to my previous job background as Personal Assistant and Sales Manager I have plenty of experience in building websites, writing website content, internet research, data entry and everything administrative like paperwork, writing letters, emailing, working with the usual computer software WORD, EXCEL, etc.. A big part of my job was also translation, mainly English and German. I also speak Dutch and Swiss German. I am very organized and used to meeting deadlines without delays. Most of all I am reliable, fast and accurate in all of my endeavors. My focus lies solely with the quality of my work and to deliver any projects promptly and satisfactory to my clients. Thank you for your interest in my profile.

I will proofread, copy edit, or line edit your writing to help it align with your vision. I am a consummate professional, and I will communicate with you throughout the process to ensure the final draft meets your expectations. 𝐀𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐬𝐞 • Fiction and memoir manuscripts (specializing in fantasy, sci-fi, thriller, mystery, and literary fiction) • Non-fiction/expository writing (specializing in education, tech, and marketing) • Technical writing (specializing in SaaS and cloud computing) • Copywriting (specializing in personal practice, tech, and non-profits) • SEO content and social media • Strategic and administrative messaging 𝐄𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 My professional experience includes editing informational texts, business documents, short-form and novel-length fiction, cloud computing/SaaS content, web copy, and teaching (English 7-12). I'm also a member of ACES: The Society for Editing. Over the years, I've edited: ✔ Hundreds of 𝑎𝑑 ℎ𝑜𝑐 documents for clients around the world: research papers, e-books, white papers, blogs, web copy, personal letters, and more. ✔ Fantasy novels, anthologies, and memoirs -- published and available through multiple booksellers ✔ SEO content for lawyers, medical professionals, B2B SaaS providers ✔ Technical and business writing for cloud computing companies such as AWS and CDW/Enquizit ✔ Mass messaging and communications for large (50,000+) audiences, both internally and externally, for business and non-profits 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐈 𝐨𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐫 • Proofreading: Editing for errors. E.g., typos, run-on sentences, formatting, stylistic consistency. This is best reserved for a text that is finished and just needs to be "polished" to avoid embarrassing errors. • Copy editing: Proofreading + minor language adjustments. I help you tweak your grammar and language use, and I make sure your writing has no silly mistakes (e.g., inconsistencies or copyright infringement). • Line editing: Nitty-gritty writing specifics. I will not only correct errors and help you maintain a consistent style, but also include suggestions for the strength of your writing on multiple levels. This includes sentence structure, word choice, clarity of ideas, tone, and pacing. ✍️ 𝑷𝒍𝒆𝒂𝒔𝒆 𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒄𝒉 𝒐𝒖𝒕! 𝑰'𝒍𝒍 𝒓𝒆𝒔𝒑𝒐𝒏𝒅 𝑨𝑺𝑨𝑷. I have a wealth of experience across writing and editing jobs, ranging from freelancing to contractual and full-time salaried positions. If you aren't sure whether your project is in my wheelhouse, please ask -- I will give a candid assessment of how my skills and experience align (or not) with your goals. I am responsive, will stay in touch throughout the job, have great attention to detail, and will work within an agreed-upon time frame. I'm confident I can meet your needs with an appropriate level of editing at a reasonable rate.

I am a freelancer with multiple disciplines. Since 2012 I have worked with clients on both Elance and Upwork as a ghostwriter of fiction, short stories and novellas. I excel at taking a client’s idea and bringing it to vivid and entertaining life. I’ve had articles published in magazines related to comics and served a screenwriting internship at the TV series Star Trek Voyager. I maintain a portfolio of art on Facebook. My English is superb; my vocabulary, spelling, and punctuation first-rate. I have an excellent eye for detail and can catch and correct any and all mistakes. I can also do editing and proofreading. Please be aware that I write in a literate and intelligent style. I cannot change my style to match any pre-existing style or anyone else’s work. My style is *my style* and it has done excellent business for my clients. My work has brought in 4- and 5-star reviews on Amazon, with some of my projects being adapted into audiobooks. I can do great work for you that your readers will love, but I can only write like myself. With that said, you will get my best effort for every project and it will be a highly entertaining finished work. I look forward to working with you and producing stories that are a cut above the rest. Thank you.

For Eden Press: Billionaire's Triplets (romance) Every copy edited manuscript will also include a separate Word List and for fiction a Characters/Locales List. We have found that keeping track of characters (e.g., ages, physical characteristics, the spelling of names, and the relations to other characters) can be a challenge for the author. The Characters/Locales List will help manage that for consistency.

*Disclaimer- if you do not actively communicate and leave people hanging, please do not send me bids. I believe that communication is one of the most important things when it comes to working with one another, and the creative process in general.* **All proposals/contracts must be a MINIMUM of 2 cents per word. I will reject them otherwise unless I find them intriguing. ** Many years of writing experience, 6+ years ghostwriting professionally. I like to write poetry, romantic fiction, comics, children's books and horror. I've also written for video games, podcasts, as well as researching subjects and writing articles for websites. Big into the body pos movement, LGBTQ community, ending mental health stigma. I also am a digital drawing artist. I am full to the brim of ideas and wanting to get my name out there and find work. I am very flexible and good with time management. I want to work with you in order to achieve the end goal: A product you are happy with. Have an amazing day!
