$3000-5000 AUD

Paid on delivery
A published author - last book sold 10,000 copies - need an editor for a new book. It is already written via seven years of weekly national press articles about the stock market and life - I need someone to put the best ones together into a book. English as a first language is essential as is an understanding of the financial markets and therefore the content. It would be ideal if you were based in Australia and preferably Melbourne. Requires an editor, someone with editing experience, not someone who thinks they can do it. You will preferably have experience in the financial sector. The articles are already written. They need collating, proof reading and ordering - enough to present the draft in a largely finished form to a publisher. Timeframe is a month or two. See my website at [login to view URL]

Hello Francesca kindly brought your project to my attention and it is certainly of great interest to me as an experienced editor and proofreader. However, part of my reputation is based on honesty as it is achieving the end result that is most important - payment comes as a result of achieving the objective, it is not the objective itself, if that makes sense. As a consequence I will not claim to be extremely experienced in financial markets. Yes, I understand the concepts, but I am an editor by profession, so I can never claim to be expert in any specific field. I would hope that my skills, feedback and completion rate, 100% on time and 100% on budget would assure you of my level of commitment and professionalism in working hard to achieve the desired result. To be open, I see this as more a 'collaboration' where I can certainly proofread and edit the text, and to a degree collate it sensibly. However you have the experience and knowledge of working in this field, and are therefore probably the best person to then suggest reshuffling and reorganising sections. You woudl only work with me as I don't front a team. I would genuinely appreciate the opportunity of discussing this further with you so that I could confirm one way or the other if I felt that my financial knowledge was sufficient for what you require. I believe I have the other skills required. Kind Regards David Dundas
