My name Bobbi Simmons and I was the 2018 Colorism Healing Poetry Contest authors pick winner for my poem, “Black Cotton.” I am a veteran educator with an Educational Specialist Degree in Educational Leadership. The teaching of the art of writing whether in a blended learning environment or through workshops is a personal and professional exultation. I live in Northeast Florida with my husband. We travel the world and are jazz enthusiast. An adventurist, I rode the Dragon’s Breath Flight zip line in Labadee, Haiti. Birdwild is about an African-American woman raised in the South during segregation and the Civil Rights movement. Bree the main character witnessed the physical and emotional abuse. Her sense of abandonment servers as inspiration. Birdwild is set in a small rural town in Shellsville, SC, beginning in the early 1950s when the South was struggling with racial segregation. Bree’s story travels through her childhood with an unscrupulous abusive father who is a ruthless drug dealer and womanizer, and her mama who holds her at arm’s length denying her the love Bree so desperately needs. Bree senses that this family withholds big secrets from her. It isn’t until Bree’s mama frees herself from her husband, and Bree learns who her real mama is, that they all are finally free. Birdwild is 68,355 words and is the first book in a series of three.

Hi! I have gone through your project details on this eBook. Can you please share the draft as it is now? As a professional writer with over eight years result oriented experience, breathing new soul in words is what I am all about! Whether writing my own thoughts or, perfecting those written by others, I deliver high quality content in accordance with clients' requirements. It will be great if you show me at least a small portion, 1000 words will be good. I'm detail oriented and eagle eyed, especially when it comes to proofreading for spelling, grammar, and punctuation using either American or British standards. I love helping writers to hone their work and elevate it to its highest potential. I will suggest changes to improve the clarity and flow of your text, but I work with a light hand to leave your distinctive voice and tone untouched. I treat all text with utmost respect for copyright and confidentiality. I work in Microsoft Word, and unless you request otherwise, I track changes. I am your best bet. To see some of my sample work, please knock!

I also grew up in South Carolina, which is a small connection I have with your project. I am a professional, native-English speaking editor who works quickly and thoroughly. I will ensure your book is free from grammatical errors, typos, and spelling mistakes, and I can help with word choice and sentence structure as necessary. I can also help with formatting as well. Please feel free to check out the more than 250 positive reviews on my profile page. I am including a few relevant ones below. "She edited the 2nd eBook in my series.

Hi Bobbi First off, I'd love to take a look at your poem - I had a look on the Colorism site but I only found a list of names. I read the summary of your book with great interest and I'd love to take a look at a sample and discuss the project in a bit more detail. I've been an independent editor for several years. I started off doing it part time, alongside my career as a lecturer in English and Creative Writing. Then, demand increased and I have now found myself doing more of this than the lecturing - which I now do on a guest basis. I don't think I'll stop entirely though - like you, I've spent a long time in education and am passionate about it. My Master's was in Linguistics, so my background and skill set lend themselves well to editing. I've worked on a range of genres; I recently edited a novel about a young African-American woman who finds herself transported back in time to 19th Century America and is forced to live as a slave. It was extremely an interesting look at a comparison between modern and 1800s life. Anyway, if you get in touch I can tell you a bit about my editing process and how I can help with publishing etc if you need it. Obviously, I'm happy to do a sample, and to answer any questions you have. Thank you Simon Richardson

Hello Mrs. Simmons, It sounds like you have written a gripping novel! As your editor, I would make sure the verb tenses and point of view are consistent, correct the spelling, punctuation, grammar and sentence structure, make sure the dialogue is formatted properly, point out any redundancy and fine tune your word choices. I also offer developmental editing services if you are interested in that. To save money, I suggest that you hire a person who specializes in formatting. If you would like me to format the book, I charge $1.50 per 6" x 9" page. Let me introduce myself. My name is Julie Webb, and I’m a professional editor with 39 years of experience, which includes working on a wide variety of fiction, nonfiction, religious/spiritual and inspirational books. My degree is in English. I use Microsoft Word or Google Docs so you can easily see the work I have done for you. I offer you excellent quality editing services. My work has earned a 4.9 out of 5 rating from 216 employers, as shown at https://www.freelancer.com/u/jw010699.html. Their comments include, "This is the second time I have worked with Julie and I highly recommend her," "Julie is a gem to work with. Professional, respected my wishes, gave solid advice and very quick turnaround time," and “Julie does excellent and professional work.” I would enjoy editing Birdwild and hope to hear from you soon. Also, congratulations on your award for "Black Cotton!" Best regards, Julie Webb

I have a great interest in helping you with your book addressing racism in the South in the '50s. Bree's story sounds like it needs to be told with heart...and forcefully. I would like to help with that. We would need to discuss details regarding your needs for formatting the text. Different clients have had different specific needs regarding the formatting of their books. Please read my profile, and the samples of my editing work in the portfolio section. I have much experience in this area of endeavor and hope you will decide to discuss your book with me. Thank you for any consideration.

Dear Bobbi, What a book you have written. I am so excited for you -- just your writing about it gave me goosebumps. It would be an honor and delight to edit this for you. My name is Jackie Moon. I'd also consider myself an adventurist, but I have never ridden the Dragon’s Breath Flight zip line. I did go skydiving once! I'm a native English speaker with impeccable grammar skills. I also have a keen eye and ear for characterization, voice, flow, sentence structure, story arc, and plot. My passion is well-polished, great writing -- over the past year alone, I've edited more than twenty-five published works, including novels, nonfiction books, children's books, screenplays, magazine articles, and business publications. I am currently a staff writer and editor with my city's monthly family magazine, and I have worked in the past as a newspaper journalist and editor. My BA is in English with a concentration in creative writing, which I received with magna cum laude Latin honors. I'd be more than happy to edit a writing sample free of charge in order for you to determine whether I am a fit for your needs. Thank you for considering me for this project. I hope to hear from you soon!

Hello As a former English professor, I've read more Masters and PHd dissertations than I care to count. Nothing makes a person appreciate proper spelling, punctuation, and grammar better than having to slog through hundreds of pages of opaque prose. On the whetstone of acedemia, I've honed my proofreading skills to the point that I can pierce even the most impenetrable paragraph. At a glance, I can spot ten mistakes and correct them before the average person has seen one. It's what I've spent my time doing and naturally what I've become good at. With my English teaching background, not only do I correct mistakes, but I can recite the rules governing each correction by heart the same way a poetry connoisseur can recite Shakespeare. Hire me to proofread your project and I'll be like Gandalf shouting "You shall not pass!" to the incoming Balrog of bad grammar. Best Regards

Hi! I have checked your project details but can you please share the draft as it is now? A small draft will be good for me to check the amount of work involved. Is it only grammatical proofreading or enhancing the content as well? How much time we have? I'm happy to guide you depending on your needs, whether that's a light touch to help you get rid of grammatical errors or a more comprehensive edit including rewriting parts of your work. I am confident to deliver my best possible. Please come via chat in order to discuss your project.

Hello! My name is Kira Budge. I'm a skilled editor with a passion for book editing. I have a B.A. in English, and I've gained editing experience through a handful of different positions. I'm still a beginner in the manuscript editing world, but I've edited two books, and I've been a beta reader for a few novelists. I also read over 300 books a year. I have an interest in social justice topics, including domestic violence, so your novel sounds like something I'd enjoy editing! For the top end of your budget, $750, I will complete a copy and line edit of your book. (A copy edit looks at spelling, grammar, and basic style. A line edit looks at sentence and paragraph organization as well as deeper style.) If you'd also like developmental editing, i.e. an overall critique of your book giving recommendations for large-level changes, that would raise the price to $1,135. Both of these prices are 10% off my usual rate. I will finish the edit in eight days, and I will gladly answer any questions you have afterwards. Thank you for the opportunity, and I look forward to your response!

I’d love to help you with your book! Great title! The majority of my work has been editing novels, and I can easily report that I have had a positive experience with all the authors―some not on this website―with whom I’ve worked. I like to stay in close contact along the way so that I am sure that I am meeting the author’s needs. In addition to novels, I have worked on resumes, business proposals, and a very difficult travel guide to Thailand. Please read the reviews on my profile. I have a Bachelor of Arts in English with a minor in history from The University of Texas at Arlington; in addition to my secondary teaching certificate, I also hold a certificate for English as Second Language. This year marks my thirtieth teaching high school English; therefore, my revising and editing skills are excellent, and I am adept with syntax and style.
