Dear Sir/Madam, I am a native-born English speaker with a talent for editing, a love of books (especially novellas and short stories) and an eagle eye for detail. I have just finished editing a longer novel, for which I received a five-star rating, a glowing review and a rehire from the same client, and I am currently taking new assignments before my next big project starts in mid-February. My ETA includes time to read the novella as well as to edit it, and I make myself available via Skype and email every day. I spare no effort in making sure that every detail is as you intend it and I guarantee that when I am done, the book will be polished and publisher-ready. I very much hope that you will take me up on this project, and I look forward to hearing back from you. Many thanks, Sofia
