Hello Freelancers, I have just recently completed a young adult science fantasy and plan to submit this to agents. For that I have written a one-page synopsis of 3100 words that I plan to submit to literary agents. However, having been involved for so many months in this project it is hard to stand back and see it from a neutral point of view. Therefore, I am looking for an editor/writer who can edit the synopsis without having read the book. PLEASE READ BELOW BEFORE MAKING AN OFFER: What skills you should have: - Native English speakers only (Preferable the US or Canada) - Please no submission from South Asia (India, Pakistan, Bangladesh etc) - Writing experience in the children's/young adult field. - Be familiar with the standards and submission process to publishers/agents in the children’s industry. - Experience in editing/copyediting. - Edits via Word tracking only. - You should have written synopses before. The synopsis has already been edited by the editor of the book. So it is in decent shape already. It just needs to be refined to really pull the agent in, so that he/she would request the entire manuscript. I have won a few literary awards with previously published books. If you like to find out more about me, just google Marc Remus and you will find plenty of information. When making an offer, please give me some samples of the synopses you have written or edited in the children's/ young adult field. I am looking forward to your offers, Best regards, Marc Remus

Hi Marc, I'm taking a chance at bidding since it appears that, so far, others are bidding way too high for this project. It's only 3100 words? But on one page? And it's been edited? I don't know how you fit that many words on one page ... but if it really is 3100 then that's pretty long for a synopsis. One page is not. Most agents want something more succinct. Can we pare it down to its basic elements? I am a university-educated native English speaker. I have lots of experience outside of this site - writing, editing, teaching creative writing and doing manuscript consultations. I have consulted members of my writer's group on their synopses - but no - I have not written one. You can disqualify me now ... but even if I had - I wouldn't likely have examples for you because most authors don't want their freelancers/editors passing their work around ... You can see my reviews on this site - I've edited some illustrated children's books. And, you can take a look at my portfolio. The most succinct piece I have is that very short blast about El Dia del Amigo - for publication. So, I can edit work down to its basics. If you find someone more experienced - great! No worries, I understand. Gook luck with your book.

Hello! I'm an experienced editor and proofreader. It's certainly a good idea to get a neutral view on your work since it's other people that will be reading it and I would be more than happy to help. I'm familiar with your art, but I didn't know you were a writer as well, so it's safe to say it would be an honor to work with you. Feel free to contact me with an additional questions or information.
