Urna,<br />&nbsp; I'm glad to hear you liked my editing work on your book introduction. &nbsp;While I certainly did focus on the grammatical, spelling, and word usage details, I felt that your introduction communicated well overall - toward the target audience you're trying to reach. &nbsp;By the way, I assume you're targeting young, urban, single women as your audience based on the content you shared so far.<br />&nbsp; As far as the "edgy" word choices are concerned, I personally would lean to the more restrained alternatives I suggested. &nbsp;However, given your target, you'll note that I left your original word choices in place, so you can readily choose to stay with those words. &nbsp;Perhaps you'll want to adopt one or two of my suggestions, and retain the rest of your original choices.<br />&nbsp; As far as rates are concerned, EditorWorld sets them, though I am offering an initial 10% discount from the standard rates. &nbsp;For a book of over 34,000 words, the standard rate is $0.014 per word. &nbsp;With my 10% discount, that would be $0.0126 per word.<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;<br />&nbsp; I look forward to reading and editing the rest of your book. &nbsp;If you like, you could submit 3 or 4 chapters/sections as you get them completed rather than waiting for the entire work to be done.<br /><br />Regards,<br />NTexasEditor&nbsp;
