I am a first-time author currently seeking an experienced editor to assist with my contemporary fiction manuscript. The draft is approximately 50,000 words in length, and I am looking for someone who can provide both developmental editing to refine the overall structure and copyediting to polish the prose. About the Manuscript: My manuscript is a contemporary fiction novel set in the Midwest. It follows John, a retired athlete grappling with the shadows of his past and the uncertainty of his future. As unexpected opportunities collide with echoes from yesterday, he's thrust into a whirlwind of choices that will define his path forward. While I am open to feedback and suggestions for improvement, I am primarily seeking an editor who can help enhance the clarity, coherence, and overall quality of the writing while preserving the integrity of the story. What I'm Looking For: I am seeking an editor who has experience in both developmental editing and copyediting, with a strong track record of working on contemporary fiction manuscripts. Is familiar with the conventions and nuances of the contemporary fiction genre and can provide insightful feedback tailored to this style. Can effectively communicate their suggestions and collaborate with me to refine the manuscript while respecting my voice as the author. Is detail-oriented and skilled in correcting grammar, punctuation, and stylistic inconsistencies to ensure the manuscript is polished and publication-ready. About Me: As a first-time author, I am eager to work with an editor who can not only help me improve this manuscript but also potentially establish a long-term working relationship for future projects. I value open communication, professionalism, and a collaborative approach to the editing process. Timeline and Budget: I aim to complete the editing process within three months, but I am flexible for the right editor. Please provide your rates and availability, and let me know if you have any specific requirements or constraints regarding the timeline. If you are interested in working together and believe you would be a good fit for this project, please send me a message detailing your experience, expertise, and approach to editing contemporary fiction. Feel free to include samples of your previous work or any relevant testimonials or references. Additionally, please provide your rates and availability for the project. Thank you for considering this opportunity, and I look forward to hearing from you!
