Description
Experience Level: Intermediate
Estimated project duration: 1 day or less
Num. of words: 20,100
Topic: Contemporary fiction - realism genre - set in Manila
Tone: Neutral
Extensive research needed: no
Extra notes: To edit novella length fiction (c.20,000 words). The stories are set in Manila and the genre is modern day realism.
There are two aspects to the assignment:
1) providing professional editorial assistance (feedback on how the stories read; where revisions are needed in order to improve the flow, impact, structure etc.)
2) providing feedback on the authenticity of the descriptions. For example, does a piece of dialogue sound genuine or would a Filipino say it in another way? Would a person act in this way or does it read as fake?
Please note, this is an editorial rather than a proofreading assignment, so corrections of spelling etc. are not required.
Start your post with the word 'Manila' to show that you have read the job post completely.
When responding please describe your experience of editing fiction. Ideally you will be able to provide links to published work you have edited.
Thank you and I look forward to hearing from you.
