I am extremely interested in completing this project for you. Albeit that I am relatively new to freelancing I will give any project I am assigned the same dedication and professionalism that I have given to all my writing, communication and editorial projects throughout my 25 years as a professional Technical Communicator. I possess a MA degree in Technical Communication and English. If selected for this project I can start immediately on your documentation and I can guarantee that it will be completely edited, proofread, reviewed and amended accordingly.

Since I'm a published American author, I am keenly aware of how important the "wow factor" is in your book submission. I've successfully marketed myself to several publishers.....and that is my first free pointer for you. You have to market YOURSELF before the publishers will even take a look at your work. I'd love to help another writer break through the publishing door. See attached.
