Beta Reading for a 339-Page Novel
Hello, I offer a beta reading service for the English translation of my 339-page novel (88,569 words). The original is in French and has been translated with the help of AI. I need a competent British proofreader, as I specifically want the language of the book to reflect British English (and sometimes Scottish). I would appreciate it if you could let me know your fixed fee for the project and the estimated turnaround time. Looking forward to hearing from you. Best regards, Marc

We have approx 4,200 words of auto (AI) translations English > Portuguese that need proofreading/editing. These are largely product descriptions for a retail/fashion/sport website – ideally all changes will be taken in directly into the CMS. The majority of the copy will not need to be written from scratch, but the AI translations will need to be checked/proofed/edited to make sure it makes sense, is grammatically correct, etc. Some rewriting may be required in some areas where the auto translations need work. Ideally you will also have experience writing for the retail/fashion/sport space. Approx three hours work.

We seek skilled typesetters to format academic books of varying subjects and lengths for our publishing house. Texts range from 100 to 800 pages in A5 size, covering diverse disciplines including the social sciences, physical sciences, and medical sciences.

Experience handling both written text and incorporating visual elements is preferable. Responsibilities include reformatting documents to our standards, ensuring consistent formatting, and proofreading to eliminate errors prior to publication. While our in-house team meets much of the production needs, increasing demand necessitates outsourcing portions of the work.

Payment will fall within a range of $70 to $190 per manuscript depending on length, complexity and specific guidelines of each individual title.
