Budget: 300 EUR Deadline: 50 days
Hello! I have been writing summaries of popular psychology and other non-fiction for a long time, so I know the genre very well. Russian is my native language. I have a degree in philology. I have experience in editing small literary texts and self-editing everything else. I am currently undergoing additional training from Litosvita to have more support in this area and to discover my personal "blind spots."
I have worked a lot with teenagers as a teacher, so I think I can represent well what kind of tone of voice they need. Moreover, I am also a "young adult," I am 25 :)
I am ready for the test.
I am also open to negotiations about the desired level of the editor's involvement in your text, and accordingly, about the cost.
My motivation is that I am interested, I love such tasks, I enjoy working with books, and, to be honest, I have missed the opportunity to work with "safe" texts in Russian.
Have a good day :)
Budget: 70 EUR Deadline: 21 days
Hello, Vladimir. I believe we will work perfectly together in the process of implementing this project for several reasons. I am a writer with many years of authorship experience and reading experience. I have mainly written in the format of fiction, but non-fiction occupies a significant part of my bookshelves. I am also a certified psychologist and a beginner investor in American markets. I value the uniqueness of the author's presentation, so I do not alter the distinctive writing style but rather work on making it better. At times, I simplify it for better understanding, and at times, I add metaphors and quotes to make the text perceived as more authoritative and presentable. My priority is to make the book structured, absolutely transparent in terms of developing financial literacy skills. Especially when it comes to a target audience like teenagers. Ambitious, motivated youth that need to be hooked with interest from the very first pages, and I am confident that in collaboration we will make the book a worthy example of its genre. The timeline will take no more than 3 weeks, and we will agree on the remaining price during a personal discussion. I would be happy to discuss the details in private messages, and I am very interested in the opportunity to take on such an engaging book.
Budget: 150 EUR Deadline: 25 days
Good day, Volodymyr!
I am engaged in literary editing and stylistic refinement of texts. Recently, I edited a fiction book — I worked with the author's style, dialogues, detailing, preserving the voice and logic of the narrative.
I am ready to work on your non-fiction book for teenagers:
— I will maintain the author's tone, humor, and presentation;
— I will strengthen the structure of the chapters;
— I will bring the style to a clearer, rhythmic, and structured form.
Cost: approximately 150–220 euros for the entire project — depending on the final volume and the state of the draft.
Timeline: 2–4 weeks (flexible).
I am ready to perform a short test (2 A4 pages).
I would be happy to contribute to the creation of the book and help make it easy, lively, and strong for the teenage audience.
Sincerely, Yuriy

Валентина, спасибо за релевантное предложение. К моему удивлению к ответу возможно прикрепить фото, видео или линк, но не файл. Поэтому текст отображу ниже.

Гром среди ясного неба или дети не проживут нашу жизнь, у них своя
Мы, родители, любим эти фразы: «Я в твои годы…» или «А вот мне было куда труднее!». Кажется, что так мы передаём опыт. На деле — просто показываем, что застряли в своём прошлом.
Я родился в 1979-м. Моя жена — чуть позже. Мы оба застали Советский Союз — страну, где телевизор был размером с духовку, а дистанционного управления не существовало: хочешь переключить — вставай и жми кнопку. Очереди были везде — магазин, поликлиника, банк. Деньги вроде были, а купить особо нечего.
У нас дома жили скромно. У жены — чуть лучше. Но какая, к чёрту, разница, если в магазине нет ни того, ни другого? Тогда богатые и бедные отличались не количеством денег, а длиной очереди за туалетной бумагой.
Все жили скромно. Ну или многие жили скромно.
Так вот история.
Как-то раз сын, тогда ему было лет двенадцать, собрался гулять с друзьями в парке на площадке.
— Пап, дай немного денег, — сказал он. — Чтобы что-нибудь вкусное купить.
Я подумал: ну ок, дам 50 центов, максимум — евро. Буду щедрым отцом.Спросил – сколько?
А он говорит:
— Хотя бы двадцать евро.
Я впал в ступор и понял, что что-то пошло не так.Чтобы заработать двадцать евро, кассиру или охраннику нужно было пахать весь день. Весь день!
Я стал думать. Не столько о том, что мы делаем не так, сколько — что вообще нужно делать, чтобы дети не вырастали финансовыми слепышами.
Начал копать тему, читать, смотреть, пробовать.
Одна из моих суперспособностей — действовать (спасибо Эдику, что напомнил об этом). Так что я не просто читал, я сразу применял всё на своих детях. В хорошем смысле, конечно.Сейчас понимаю: всё это было хаотично и без системы. Но иначе, наверное, и не могло быть. Это был путь проб и ошибок — становление и меня, и детей. И это продолжается. Мы учимся до конца наших лет.
Сейчас понимаю: всё это было не систематично, не последовательно, но это было становление и, иначе, наверное, и не могло быть.
К 2025 году у каждого из моих детей инвестиционный портфель — около 11 000 евро. Да, сумма заметная. Но если взрослый, хороший специалист в своем деле, откладывает хотя бы 15–30% дохода, он спокойно накопит это за год.
Мне 45, и я всё больше ценю то, что называют сложным процентом. Хотя я бы переименовал его в лёгкий процент. Потому что если всё правильно делать, он реально работает за тебя, а не против.
Всё это уже приносит свои плоды — о них я расскажу дальше.
Деньги — не цель, а инструмент.
Финансовая грамотность начинается не с калькулятора, а с мышления.
Часто нас учат экономить, но не инвестировать.
Наше прошлое — не инструкция для их будущего.
Мы выросли в очередях и скромности, они — в изобилии и скоростном интернете. Это не “хуже” и не “лучше”. Просто другое.- Фраза “Я в твои годы…” — ловушка.
Каждый раз, когда хочется её сказать — лучше промолчать. Потому что учить опытом, которого больше не существует, — как давать VHS-кассету ребёнку с iPhone. - Дети не должны повторять наш путь.
Наша задача — дать им карту, но не заставлять идти по тем же граблям. Пусть бьют свои, зато с осознанным лицом. - Финансовая грамотность начинается не с цифр, а с мышления.
“Деньги за день работы” — это модель прошлого. Сегодня важно понимать, как деньги работают сами. - Главное — не идеальная система, а действие.
Ошибки, эксперименты, хаос — всё это часть пути. Лучше несовершенно действовать, чем вечно готовиться начать. - “Сложный процент” — действительно лёгкий.
Просто начни, и время само сделает за тебя тяжёлую работу. Главное — не мешай ему своими спонтанными покупками.
- Фраза “Я в твои годы…” — ловушка.

Инна спасибо большое за вопрос.
На данном этапе тестовое задание присылать не нужно — сейчас я только уточняю, готов ли потенциальный исполнитель его выполнить при необходимости.
Я анализирую ответы, примеры прошлых работ и рейтинг претендента. С финальным short-list я свяжусь отдельно и направлю дальнейшие инструкции.С уважением,

Current freelance projects in the category Text Editing & Proofreading
I am looking for an experienced literary editor, an editorial team, or a publishing house for the final work on a book in Russian. My name is Alexander. I am a Buddhist teacher, healer, and health practitioner. I have dedicated over thirty years of my life to spiritual practice, studying meditative, healing, and psychological methods, as well as working directly with people. My main theme is to help individuals become healthier, calmer, more conscious, and happier. I have been living in Warsaw, Poland, for about eighteen years. For many years, I promised my students to record what I convey to them in live teaching: about happiness, spiritual practice, inner freedom, suffering, mindfulness, compassion, death, beauty, the body, the mind, and the path of a person in the modern world. Thus, this book gradually came into being. I am not a professional writer. I am primarily a teacher and practitioner. The book was dictated, then processed, refined, structured, and edited many times. As of now, the manuscript is complete. The main idea is conveyed, the structure is formed, and the text has undergone several stages of purification from template formulations, excessive "neuro-linguistic" expressions, and mechanical editorial decisions. Now I need a strong, mature, experienced literary editor, an editorial team, or a publishing house that can work not only with programs, neural networks, or automatic tools but primarily with living text, style, intonation, rhythm, and the author's voice. The book is written in Russian. I think, speak, and dictated this work in that language. Therefore, the final literary editing must also be done in Russian. It is important for me to bring the Russian-language manuscript to a state where I can clearly, accurately, and fully see my own thoughts, understand every editorial intervention, and be confident that the author's voice is not lost. This work requires a person or team who are proficient in Russian and have real experience working with large book texts. It is important that the editor is not just a technical proofreader but a mature specialist with a good literary ear, capable of working with the author's intonation, the living conversational basis of the text, and the philosophical-psychological content. At the same time, it is important to note: the Russian-language version will be the first stage and is primarily planned as an electronic publication on relevant platforms. The official book presentation, printed copies, and the main presentation of the book are planned to be in Polish. The next stage will be a quality translation into Polish and a full Polish edition in Poland. After that, an English version is planned. That is why I am open not only to collaboration with individual freelance editors but also to working with editorial agencies, literary agencies, or publishing houses that can help bring the Russian-language electronic publication to a fully prepared result: final editing, proofreading, preparation of the electronic book, cover design, typesetting, metadata, ISBN if needed, technical preparation of files, and placement of the book on several electronic platforms for sale. I am interested not only in a separate service but in the final result: that the Russian-language electronic version of the book is professionally prepared, designed, and placed for sale on several relevant platforms. This is not a fictional novel or an academic work. It is a philosophical-psychological and spiritual book about happiness, Buddhist practice, human suffering, inner freedom, death, compassion, beauty, everyday life, health, and the path of conscious living. It contains personal experiences, reflections, elements of Buddhist teachings, psychological observations, healing experiences, and the living voice of a teacher who has worked with people for many years. Buddhist education for the editor is not mandatory. It may even be better if the editor looks at the text through the eyes of a thoughtful, educated, attentive person from the outside. It is important to have the ability to work with philosophical, psychological, spiritual, and personal texts. If any terms or places are unclear, they can be marked for future notes, comments, and a glossary. The main tasks of the editor are: — to remove remnants of artificial, template, or neural network phrases, if any remain; — to make the text more human, natural, and literarily mature; — to work on style, rhythm, linguistic purity, and reading smoothness; — to preserve the author's voice, the teacher's intonation, directness, liveliness, and personal experience; — not to turn the book into a dry academic work, esoteric text, or standard motivational literature; — to help bring the manuscript to a strong final appearance. The text volume is approximately 500,000 characters with spaces. This is about 278 calculated pages of 1,800 characters with spaces or approximately 12.5 author sheets of 40,000 characters with spaces. I can provide the exact number of words and pages additionally upon request or along with a fragment of the manuscript for evaluation. This book is very important to me. It is being created not as a commercial project and not for literary vanity. It is an attempt to convey a living teaching that has helped my students and the people I have worked with for many years. Before starting the main work, I am open to paid test editing of a fragment of the manuscript. Please indicate in your response what volume of text you need to assess the style, complexity of the work, and to form an accurate cost. I am ready to pay well and fairly for quality professional editorial and publishing work. Payment will be made from a private entrepreneur. From the very beginning, I would like to have a clear agreement or contract with specified conditions: scope of work, stages, deadlines, editing pace, cost, and payment procedure. Please indicate in your response: — your experience working with large book texts; — examples or descriptions of similar projects; — whether you work with Russian-language manuscripts; — whether you have experience working with philosophical, psychological, spiritual, or non-fiction texts; — what part of the text you would like to see for assessing style and complexity of work; — your current rates; — preferred format of collaboration; — approximate pace of work; — payment terms; — whether you can additionally help with proofreading, cover design, typesetting of the electronic book, file preparation, ISBN, metadata, and placement of the book on electronic platforms; — if you represent an agency or publishing house, please briefly describe which specific stages of preparation and publication of the book you can take on. I am looking for not a random performer but a thoughtful, intelligent, and experienced collaborator or a professional team who will be interested in participating in the completion of an important book with respect for its content, author’s voice, and living human intonation.

I am working on an artistic nonfiction project for teenagers aged 11–15, based on real events. The book combines artistic prose and developmental psychology and tells the story of young athletes, their transition to a new level of skill, discipline, failures, victories, and personal growth. I am looking for a literary editor with experience in artistic prose or artistic nonfiction who can help enhance the drama, rhythm, and psychological depth of the text, refine the style and dialogues, provide structural solutions if needed, and maintain the author's voice and integrity of the work. Experience with books on development, psychology, or sports will be an advantage but is not mandatory. I would appreciate a brief introduction about yourself, examples of completed projects, pricing, and collaboration format.
