Where can I find a good editor that is fluent in writing and editing the English language? I need someone part time to edit my grammar, sentence structure and punctuation. I can not afford to pay a lot right now. I will not have a lot of editing projects to start with, but looking for 1 permanent part time editor, maybe leading into permanent full time in the future. Any advice would help. Thanks Malisia

Why don't you start with writing sites and expand your portfolio from there ... perhaps when the right editor comes along , you can show your portfolio as a resume to the publisher .. Anyway , in your local country , you could go to any bookstore and check out the publishing names of your local books. Contact them and send your manuscripts to them. Normally they will reply accordingly from then on. I discovered a local talent in the bookstores here in my country and the author uses the name anonymous , that's just so cool.

Seems like you have a couple of job applications. You might want to consider them? *Winks*

Hi mjs, I have been here for quite a while and I may say, my writing skills have improved a lot after five hundred fifteen posts. You may see my profile and my responses there.
