I wrote a 200 page book that is a combination of memoir, essays, and a hybrid of both. I need someone to read a PDF of the book with the opposite of a fine tooth comb to point out the egregious errors. e.g. Spelling mistakes and blatant grammar errors. I fully expect you to read this document and come back saying, "I might've wanted to change this or that but... It's good to go." That's it. Read my 200 page book and come back with any, if there are any, egregious mistakes.

We have an anthology of biographies of American women that is pretty much done but needs final editing and proofreading. There are a few selections to add to the text and then each individual essay should read, edited, and proofread. I'm looking for someone tedious and meticulous.

I'm an author with an 8-book Christian middle-grade series, The Brave Girls of the Bible Club (ages 8–12), and I'm looking for an editor for the whole series. The series at a glance: Five modern girls discover a magical trunk in their church basement that transports them into the stories of courageous women of the Bible. Each book teaches one real-world skill (courage, leadership, emotional honesty, resilience, identity, gifts, empathy) and ends with a parent–daughter discussion guide. The eight books feature Esther, Deborah, Hannah, Ruth, Mary Magdalene, Priscilla, Miriam, and an ensemble finale. Scope: 8 books, ~4,000–6,000 words each — roughly 38,000 words total Already fully drafted, formatted, and consistent in style (Word/.docx files) Each book: 7–8 chapters plus back matter (discussion guide, journal pages) These manuscripts are already written and in a fixed brand voice. I'm looking for editing and continuity checking, not rewriting. Specifically: Line/copy edit — grammar, clarity, flow, age-appropriate language for 8–12. Series continuity — consistency across all 8 books (character details, the trunk's "rules," recurring phrasing, the deepening faith arc). Scripture accuracy — confirming the biblical retellings and references are handled faithfully. I don't want the text rewritten or "elevated" into a different style, just polished and made consistent. Before I commit to all eight, would you be open to a paid sample edit of one chapter (~1,500 words)? That lets me see your editing style and confirm we're a good fit. If it goes well, I'd then want a bulk quote for the full series (~38,000 words) and your estimated turnaround. A few quick questions: Are you comfortable with middle-grade fiction (not just devotionals/picture books)? Do you work in Word with tracked changes so I can review every edit? What's your rate for the one-chapter sample, and roughly for the full series? The ideal candidate will have experience in Christian content and middle-grade books, ensuring the series is engaging and suitable for the target audience. This is a long-term project requiring a commitment to editing all 8 books.
