Description
Experience Level: Entry
I'm looking for an experienced British editor with an excellent eye for detail and a sense of humour to edit an autobiographical adventure book. You need to be British because its a very British story and the nuances and many terms of reference are very UK orientated and I need someone who 'gets' them. If you have any interest in or better, experience of sailing a dinghy, even better! This book is based on a real-life journey around the UK that took place in 2019 and although ,written, has still not been published. It's a great story by a great man. We need someone who is available for this straight away and who would be willing to show examples of relevant work and provide a short 3 page 'test' sample. We anticipate it taking between 55 - 60 hours of work time depending on your experience, but it needs to be accurate throughout with careful 'unifying' or certain words/expressions and a sense of keeping who this person is. Much of it is pretty smooth already and other parts need more attention including reworking sentences. It's important that it keep s the character of the writer. There is 120,000 words. (41,000 has been done but may need a refreshed pair of eyes which should not take as long). I am open to your suggestions.
