Hello,<br /><br />My name is Diana and I would be interested in joining your team of editors. I've been working as a copyeditor since 2010 and have a knack for spotting grammar issues, inconsistencies, punctuation, spelling, hyphenation, content fluidity etc. <br />I mostly adhere to Chicago Manual of Style, it is my bible <span class="ng-scope">and I've applied everything I know from it -religiously- in my work. I am also highly familiar with the AP Style Guide and the MLA Style Manual. <br /><br />My experience includes: <br /><br />1. Article editing/proofreading <br />2. Academic editing <br />3. Copy sales editing/proofreading <br /><br />My go-to editing program is the "Track Changes" feature in Microsoft Word, it has never failed me, on the contrary, it works as a solid bridge between me and the writer. <br /><br /><br />As an editor I can provide: <br /><br />1. An overall assessment of the project <br />2. Aside from your requirements, I am able to offer professional suggestions to improve your project <br />3. A thorough inspection of the content <br />4. Tweaking and erasing any grammar issues, misspellings, hyphenation, and eradicating the passive voice when necessary <br />5. I will improve your content's style and accuracy 6. Will check for inconsistencies. For example, if your content has multiple voices, a combination of 1st and 3rd person. You should definitely stick to just one, for a professional finish. <br /><br />I really enjoy what I do, and I would like to continue with my vocation within your company. If you have questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me! Thank you for taking the time to read my application. <br /><br />Regards, <br /><br />Diana R.</span>
