Description

I am a New Zealand writer looking for someone who lives in or is from the United States to proofread my novel to check that my word usage is consistent with American English/slang etc.
I am an editor myself with 20+ experience so all the editing has already been done, but I will appreciate any additional feedback or notification of any errors you might spot.
It would also be helpful if you are familiar with Hawaii, particularly O'ahu as part of my novel takes place on that island and though I have done extensive research I haven't actually been there.
The novel is 105500 words and I realise my budget is very low, but as I say, it has already been extensively edited so you'd mostly be checking spelling, punctuation, word usage and for any obvious errors I may have missed.
The story is a romance, but not chick lit or sickly sweet. It's also about second chances and how we often make wrong assumptions about people.
I am happy to provide a sample on request.

I am looking for a university or college enrolled/attending student who has a valid .edu email address and a student ID to assist with registering for two specific services: Cursor.com and Lightning.ai. Lightning.ai only allows students with a .edu email to register, while Cursor.com offers a one-year discount program for students with a .edu email only from the following countries: Australia, Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Canada, Chile, Colombia, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Georgia, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, Latvia, Lithuania, Mexico, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Serbia, Slovak Republic, Slovenia, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom, United States. This task is very straightforward if the conditions are met. BUT ONLY STUDENTS CURRENTLY ENROLLED IN OR ATTENDING UNIVERSITY/COLLEGE IN THE COUNTRIES MENTIONED ABOVE ARE ELIGIBLE TO ASSIST ME WITH THIS TASK. Please note: I am seeking real students who are currently enrolled and who have not registered for these services before, and do not intend to use them in the future. I do not need access to your .edu email account or password. You can continue using your email for your studies as usual. I only require your .edu email address and some basic student information — such as your Student ID, Major/Field of Study, and Enrollment Date — if requested by these services for verification purposes. Please do not create a new .edu email specifically for this request. These services have strict verification processes, and .edu emails obtained from third-party providers or self-created accounts will not work. Remember your university/college email must have .edu in domain, if not they still don't allow. When you apply this job, please provide me your university/college name so I could check that school cursor site is allow or not.

I am seeking an accomplished organizational structure and human resources professional to review and refine the content of a forthcoming book on organizational design. The manuscript explores various approaches to structuring organizations to maximize efficiency, productivity and employee engagement. Your expertise in crafting optimal organizational frameworks and corporate structures will be invaluable in strengthening the accuracy and utility of the content. As an advisor on this project, your role will be to thoroughly examine each chapter, offering editorial feedback on how to enhance clarity of concepts, ensure terminology is used precisely, and recommend additional perspectives or areas for development. Candidates considered for this role must have a minimum of five years' experience advising corporations on organizational design and restructuring initiatives. Applicants' letters of interest should provide examples of projects they have led that involved evaluating an organization's hierarchy, departmental configuration, spans of control, mapping reporting relationships and more. The selected candidate will have a proven track record of helping companies determine the operational design best suited to support their business strategy, culture and goals. In addition to organization design expertise, a background in human resources management is preferable. Understanding how to align business units, roles and processes with human capital requirements will allow for a holistic review providing both strategic and functional recommendations. The ideal candidate will have undergone certification or have academic credentials in areas of HR leadership.
