The Proofing Armenian

Hey Everyone -

Moderator: I apologize if this is in the wrong forum. Please delete/move accordingly.

I am in the process of expanding my proofreading/copyediting portfolio and wanted to offer up my services to any current and future writers on the board.

I have 8 years of experience as a proofreader and copyeditor in markets from academic to corporate. I also have 8 years of post-secondary experience teaching writing, grammar, and literature. Above all, I love reading and I like proofing (yeah, I am insane like that). I do have a resume for perusal upon request.

I would like to invite three writers to send me their last 10-20 pages which I will gladly proof or copyedit (depending on what you need) free of charge. The only thing I ask in return is permission to add you to my resume. And if you like my work, I would be more than happy to work on your finished manuscript with and for you.

I assure you, as a writer, that whatever you send me is under the strictest of confidence and will not be reproduced, plagiarized or discussed with anyone else, anywhere else, or under any circumstance.

Feel free to e-mail me at TheProofingArmenian @ gmail . com (remove extra spaces) with any questions. I look forward to speaking and working with some of you. Thank you so much for your time!!!

Fadi (the Armenian himself!)

PS - Should I receive more than three inquiries or submissions I will simply work out a schedule to accommodate as many writers as I can. I pride myself on working under tight deadlines with swift turnaround time.

i do think this section is not the proper place for this post... sounds more like it belongs in 'writer's resources' or somewhere that advertising is allowed, since you seem to be looking for paying clients, as well as offering 3 free samples...

and it would be a good idea for you to supply a link to your website, so prospective offer-takers/clients can see the quality of your work, don't you think?

plus, i see this is your first post and it's customary to introduce oneself in the welcoming section before posting, if you intend to become a member... otherwise this will look suspiciously like spam [trolling for clients] instead of intending to be a contributing member...
