Professional editor is needed to edit non-fiction book proposal

Job ID: 36668584

Budget: $30 – $250 AUD

I am in search of a professional editor to assist me in editing my non-fiction book proposal. I've just completed a 99,000 word non-fiction manuscript on eliminating extreme poverty and inequality using the power of finance and charity, along with the book proposal of 23 pages (6117 words).

My primary focus is more on enhancing the effectiveness/marketability of the proposal and less on overall structure and organization, grammar and punctuation, and proofreading.

I'm starting to get feedback from my first batch of agents that I sent months ago. They all rejected my query without feedback on the writing itself. I think my biggest weakness is the author's platform.

I'm not attaching my proposal here. I will only send it for your review to selected freelancers.

Ideal skills and experience for this job include:

- Experience and credentials in editing non-fiction book proposals
- Strong understanding of grammar and punctuation
- Attention to detail
- Familiarity with proofreading services
- Bonus if you can connect me with the appropriate agents or publishers.

Deliverable:

1x edited (with changes applied) non-fiction book proposal
1x edited (with changes shown) non-fiction book proposal
1x review report of the proposal

Thank you. I'm looking forward to working with you.
