Looking for someone with experience editing commercially published fiction. The novel blends suspense, crime, and literary storytelling. I'm seeking line editing and copy editing—not ghostwriting or developmental editing. I'm looking for someone who will make my writing better, not simply correct grammar. I want an editor who preserves my voice while improving clarity, pacing, dialogue, and sentence flow. I'm open to substantial line edits and suggestions where they strengthen the manuscript.

I need a few simple edits to a family photo. NO AI. Adding smiles, opening eyes, etc.

I have written my first book. A chronicle of a smalltown HS basketball season, the impact it had on the individuals involved and the community around it. All of the content is complete but I want to ensure all grammar, punctuation, consistency are correct before I send the doc to my formatter. I've read my own work so many times it is easy to overlook or miss things. Is this a project of interest? It's roughly 150 pages (6x9 paperback) and reads fairly quickly. Looking forward to communicating with you! Here is a link to the sizzle reel for the story... https://vimeo.com/1184573216?fl=pl&fe=sh

**Proofreader/Copy Editor Needed – Accounting Firm Web Pages (Short Project)** **Overview** I have 28 web pages of copy for a CPA firm website that need a light but sharp human edit. The content is already written and has passed AI detection — this is NOT an AI writing job. I need a skilled human editor to review and tighten it. **What needs to be done:** - Check that headlines and intro paragraphs are congruent (the headline promises what the intro delivers) - Fix any awkward or robotic-sounding sentences - Break up run-ons and tighten rambling phrasing - Smooth transitions where the writing shifts tone or feels choppy - Light grammar/punctuation cleanup as needed - Flag anything that sounds off-brand for a small-town CPA firm (warm, trustworthy, straightforward tone) **What this is NOT:** - Do not rewrite entire sections - Do not run content through AI tools — this copy must remain human-written - Do not change the factual content or structure **Deliverable** Return the edited copy in the same format you receive it (Google Doc or Word). Use Track Changes or highlight your edits so I can review and accept/reject. **Ideal Candidate** - Strong editorial instincts, not just grammar checking - Experience editing web copy or marketing content - Understands conversational but professional tone - Fast turnaround

I have a 12-minute video. I need it broken down and enhanced as follows: broken into short clips, enhance the audio, and add subtitles. The 12-minute video will be broken down into about 4-6 very short clips. This will take a competent editor around 1-2 hours (max) to do.
