    Hi there! My name is a Jamie Flynn, a musician, an audio engineer and audiobook/podcast editor from Stirling, Scotland. With over 10 years of work in both audio production and music, I have valuable experience in a wide range of areas. Recently, I aimed to specialise in audio recording, mixing, editing and production after taking ownership of a music studio which affords me the time, space and resources to produce quality work in this field. With regards to audio editing, to date I have edited over 400 podcasts (a mixture of heavy and light editing) with nothing but positive feedback. Alongside this, I have produced over 35 audio books that have passed ACX standards and are currently hosted on Audible. I also recently recorded, edited and produced a significant amount of narration for a corporate meditation app, as well as Dr David R Hamilton's latest work (Hay House UK Publishing) If you have any questions please do not hesitate to ask! I hope to hear from you soon, Kind regards, Jamie Flynn

    So, you have a website, but there's the constant worry about engaging your audience with regular and relevant posts. Worry no more! I will be your goto person to create awesome blog posts for your website that keep your audience glued. My Process 1. The first thing I do is to understand what your project or website is about. 2. The next step is to find out who your target audience is; this determines the tone of the articles. It goes without saying that a website for kids should have a different tone than that of retirees. 3. After that, I suggest article ideas or titles for your approval, but if you have those already, great! 4. We agree on a price, a due date, and other details for the articles. 5. I do my thing and turn in the articles within the stipulated deadline. If you would like to give me the reins so that I post directly on your website, I'd gladly do that. And you don't have to worry about how I'll find my way around. If it's a WordPress website, that'll be a breeze, but even if the CMS is alien (from Mars maybe), I'll figure it out. So, why don't you go ahead and send me an invite or click on that "Contact" button and let's begin an amazing journey, together?

    Have you created some text that you'd like a second pair of eyes to look over, checking the sense and refining it with perfect grammar and spelling? Or maybe English isn't your first language, and you'd like some help to make your copy read like it was written by a native speaker? Either way, you've come to the right place! My speciality is working with texts both long and short, and from all backgrounds, weeding out the typos and tweaking phrases or sentences to help the language flow as well as possible. My default is British English, but I'm happy to work in different styles (such as US English) or follow a set style guide. I started editing shortly after finishing my degree at Oxford 20 years ago, and am now a full-time freelancer working on all sorts of projects from my home office. I have a flexible but focused attitude to work and am often available for quick turnaround projects. I frequently work with people who don't have English as a mother tongue, and will put in the effort to make sure your text sounds like it's been written by a native speaker. I work primarily in British English but am happy to adapt to US/Australian styles where needed. What sort of projects do I work on? • Magazine work In the past I have worked as a subeditor for major UK magazines including BBC Good Food, Food & Travel, Lonely Planet Traveller, Good Housekeeping and Vogue; and as a subeditor/proofreader for customer publications for major brands including Marks & Spencer, English Heritage, Aston Martin and P&O Cruises. I now take on magazine proofreading and editing projects from home, using Word, PDFs or InDesign as appropriate. I hold a diploma in Magazine Editorial from the London School of Publishing. • Book/ebook proofreading My proofreading projects have included numerous books for Flame Tree Publishing, Alliance Publishing Trust and Ashgate Publishing, as well as texts for self-publishing clients. • Academic editing/proofreading I have worked on several essay submissions and journal articles for UK universities and other institutions around Europe. I understand how to avoid plagiarism and can work with several referencing styles including Harvard, Chicago, MLA and APA referencing. I hold both a BA degree from Oxford University and a Masters degree from London (Royal Academy of Music). I have completed an Academic Proofreading course with Proofreading Academy (London) to brush up my skills in this speciality area. • Web content/copywriting My copywriting work is mostly in the travel sphere, writing tour descriptions for WithLocals and accommodation descriptions/area guides for Pitchup.com. Through this work I have been briefed in the principles of SEO and am currently undertaking several courses to improve my knowledge in this area. • Website/blog proofreading I have worked on several corporate websites and personal blogs to refine the text while preserving the owner’s individual tone of voice. For this work I have had repeat clients and have ongoing contracts with others who appreciate a second pair of eyes. I am happy to work in Wordpress or provide Word documents with changes tracked. • Other editing/proofreading projects Almost anything you can suggest! Upwork has so far sent me: calendars, promotional brochures, job applications, CVs…

    Hello authors, publishers and businesses looking for a friendly, trained editor! I've edited 100+ fiction and nonfiction books, plus reports, web content and more. I'm also: - a graduate of the University of Oxford - a Professional Member of the Chartered Institute of Editing and Proofreading (CIEP) - a Partner Member of the Alliance of Independent Authors (ALLi). I love helping self-published authors, publishers and businesses to produce work of an exceptional standard. My clients include independent publishers, authors and companies like The Royal Mint. I read French at the University of Oxford and have lived and worked in France, hence the specialist arm to my business of editing books set in France, but I work on all kinds of other books too, including mysteries and thrillers, historical fiction and memoirs/biographies. I'm putting the finishing touches to my debut novel, a mystery set in the south of France, which I plan to self-publish later this year (2025). I also have extensive experience with web content on a variety of platforms so can edit through the lens of SEO, web accessibility and user experience. I'm the author of 'Improve Your Author Website' and 'Improve Your Editor Website'. Drop me a line so we can have a no-obligation chat about your project! SERVICES I offer the following: - Line editing – I will carefully work through your manuscript line by line to improve word choice, flow and sentence structure, while taking care to retain your unique author’s voice. - Copyediting – I will check for a broad range of problems, including errors in grammar, spelling and punctuation, the flow of language and issues of style. I will also carry out a degree of fact-checking. - Proofreading – I will work on your proof once it's been designed and typeset, checking for errors that have crept in during revision, plus issues with formatting, layout, page numbering, headers, footers, table of contents and more. - Website editing and proofreading – I have an extensive background in web marketing. I can line-edit and copyedit your web text before you upload it to your site, then proofread your webpages. I will also make suggestions to improve your site's SEO, accessibility and usability. - Edit of your first 10,000 words – I will carry out a detailed edit at the level of your choice (line edit, copyedit, or a combination of the two). You will receive a bespoke style sheet and an editorial report detailing areas of strength and suggestions for improvement. - Sample edits – Try before you buy. Simply provide a sample of up to 2,500 words, and for a small fee (taken off the full-edit cost if you hire me), I’ll provide an edit or proofread and a short editorial report containing advice that you can apply to your whole book. SUBJECTS AND GENRES I edit fiction, non-fiction and web content. I enjoy working on a variety of topics and genres, but am especially interested and experienced in the following: - Books set in France – My MA in French from the University of Oxford and my experience of living and working in different regions of France will benefit your book - Thrillers and mysteries – I have written a mystery novel and studied the craft of writing, story structure, plot and character arcs - Memoirs and biographies – I find other people's lives inspiring and fascinating, and will bring the principles of story craft to your book - Historical fiction – I enjoy the research involved! I also have an A-Level in Early Modern History and read historical fiction during leisure time - Websites – Any topic! I worked in the field of web for almost 20 years and am the author of 'Improve Your Author Website' and 'Improve Your Editor Website'. WHAT YOU WILL GET I'll begin by gathering your full requirements to ensure I deliver exactly what you need. I will continue to communicate with you throughout our project and will deliver high-quality work on time, with full tracked changes and comments on reasons for suggested changes where needed. You are in control the whole time and do not have to accept all/any of my suggestions! I always carefully read through text at least twice to ensure I capture as many issues as possible. I'll produce a style sheet, unique to your project, that details style decisions made (including grammar, spelling and punctuation). If you're a fiction writer, the style sheet will also include a descriptive list of characters, locations and the timeline of your book to ensure consistency. My rates strongly reflect the effort I'll put into your project and the high quality of work I'll produce. It takes time to painstakingly check copy for errors, flow, consistency and style standards; this work cannot be rushed.

    I am an academic proofreader and editor with professional membership to the Chartered Institute of Editing and Proofreading and certification by the Board of Editors in the Life Sciences.

I will ensure your document, be it a journal submission, book, or final year thesis, has the appropriate tone and formatting style for your audience. Alongside my PhD I also trained for my postgraduate certificate in higher education, qualifying me to use a broad range of teaching skills to enhance my students' learning. I subsequently taught undergraduate and postgraduate students for seven years and then international students exclusively at INTO University of Exeter for a further four years. As such, I understand the specific difficulties that EFL writers face. Please do not hesitate to get in touch for more information.

    Hi everyone! My name is Itsuki Yoshida. I am working as a freelance designer/Japanese-English interpreter & translator based in the UK. I have been working as a freelance interpreter/translator since 2017. I am a native Japanese speaker and a fluent English speaker. To prove my English skill, I have obtained an IELTS overall 6.5 scores in 2016, with that score I studied in a master's degree in the UK and graduated in 2017. I can confidently say that I am a flawless Japanese speaker who can express a bit more than ordinarily native Japanese speakers can do, as I have a deep interest and curiosity to the Japanese language. I translate the writings' contexts rather than translating literally as the Japanese language's grammatical structure is more flexible than English, and also some words are used in a different sense from the literal meaning of them. I always enjoy this process to make the translation more accurate. As I usually get one-time projects from clients, I have experienced in diverse subjects. Here are highlights of my experiences: 1. I have worked as a freelance project manager/ Japanese-English translator for RED BEE (at BBC Broadcast Centre) and I always provided an accurate translation & proofreading for their TV programs. I was also in charge of interpreting information from Japanese to English for my colleagues. 2. I have diverse experiences in translation & interpretation from a sales meeting to medical interview as a freelancer. My duty is a translation, proofreading (Email, presentation etc) and interpretation, depending on the clients' requirement I work holistically. *The list of experiences are available on my portfolio. 3. I have worked in two event management companies as a project manager and I was mainly in charge of projects that are related to my language skills. I was also in charge of translation/proofreading of documents that are related to their events, and also, I was in charge of translation from Japanese to English for the web-advertisement and marketing projects. (Banner, SNS, and brochure etc.) I can edit documents on Adobe Photoshop/Illustratior/ Indesign/Premiere and Microsoft Word/Powerpoint/Excel. I'm looking forward to working with you! Kind regards, Itsuki Yoshida

I enjoy writing about current affairs, politics, technology, business, finance, lifestyle etc. Since the pandemic, I have been looking into more travel and remote working opportunities and have developed both an interest and level of knowledge in these areas that is available to be tapped. Writing has always been a passion of mine and SEO content writing is something I still consider fun and challenging, even though it is my job. I look forward to working with clients on this platform to achieve our mutual goals.

    Specialising in: Ghostwriting, Business, Technical, Finance, Comedy, Self-Help, Thriller, YouTube Script, Song Lyrics, and SEO Writing. Adding Products to Shopify Stores, Product Descriptions, Articles, Blogs, Pillar Posts and More. My name is Rowan, but most people call me Jay. I have 13 years of experience as a ghostwriter, editor, and proofreader, with special focus on mental health, self-help, financial and comedy writing. I also have a passion for writing song lyrics and punchy YouTube scripts. One of my favourite things is to take a piece of regular content and infuse comedy and wit into it. I love to take content from drab to fab. I also like to create content from scratch that deeply impacts the reader or highlights some of the darker sides of life/scenarios. Some can be fun and encourage a giggle, and others will bring a tear to the eye at just the right time - this is my art, and I am addicted to it! For the more serious writing - finance writing for example - I am able to match the tone and style required by the client. I have worked for loan affiliate companies, investment sites, fintech companies, and digital agencies. Hiring me will benefit you in several ways. Firstly, I have scribed (a nice old word that, right?) so many books that I have lost count (on my fingers and toes, that is!). I offer a quick, easy-peasy process to my clients. This means I get things done on time and without wasting your precious time. All samples provided are mine - I consider it a deeply offensive act to plagiarise, although I long to write the kind of content that others WANT to plagiarise (hopefully, it's that good)! I am like a puppy with a new toy when I get a new job - I will not stop until it is perfect and you (the client) are smiling and happy! Another thing is that I'm pretty zippy on the keyboard. I type 75 words per minute with 100% accuracy, but I promise there's a lot more to me than that. I am a qualified relationship and communication counsellor, which has helped me ghostwrite several self-help e-books for professionals. I have focused on self-help niches, including substance abuse, relationships, parenting, self-esteem, confidence, etc. I have also recently achieved my vegan nutritionist diploma and started a new course on gardening (I am an avid foodie and gardener). I have ghostwritten several gardening e-books (container gardening, hydroponics, micro-greens and more) and hope to explore this niche more in the upcoming months. Over the years, I have written for many other niche markets, including Fintech, Health and Beauty, Insurance, Cyber Security, Gaming, Pet Care. . .the list really does go on. My main focus areas over the last few years have been: * Blogs * Document to document transcription * E-books * Articles * Drinking enough coffee to power a Boeing * Website content * Newsletters * SEO articles * Strolling through dog parks to give pooches the appreciation they deserve * Proofreading and editing A brief overview of my work history is below: • Go Fish Client Catchers – 2006 to 2008 Position held: Copywriter, blogger, editor. • Alfalfa Content Generator – 2010 to date (currently still working for them) Position held: Copywriter • Et al Group – 2009 to date 2019 Position held: Copywriter • Digiweb Global Solutions – 2019 to date (currently on contract) Position held: Response Post Writer • Dojono London – 2018 to 2020 (contract ended due to COVID-19 impact) Position held: Copywriter • FinGlobal – 2019 to date (currently on contract) Position held: Copywriter • Mother Tongue – 2023 to date (currently on contract) Position held: QA Editor for LLM work I have certificates and recommendations that can be provided on request - I have uploaded some of my certifications to my profile for clients to view.
