Academic Chapter Comprehensive Editing

Summary

Freelancer Client is hiring: Academic Chapter Comprehensive Editing.

Location: Remote

I have a single chapter from an academic manuscript that now needs a thorough polish. I’m looking for an editor who can improve grammar, spelling, sentence structure, and overall flow while making sure the footnotes align with the Chicago Manual of Style, 17th edition.

Number of words - 7,097 (without footnotes); 8,900 (with footnotes). Footnotes are already well written; you'll only need to check for irregularities or inconsistencies.

The text is already well researched, so there’s no content rewriting required—just careful line-by-line refinement and a clear eye on coherence from paragraph to paragraph. Please return:

A tracked-changes version showing every edit

A clean, final version ready for submission

Skills: Proofreading, Editing, Research Writing, English Grammar, Academic Writing, Writing Tutoring

Budget: $10–$30 USD

IMPORTANT! Manual editing is required. If you have to use any software, do not use it in such a way that it will turn the original manuscript into AI-written text. An AI detection check will be done before you start work, and will also be done after you have submitted your edited work.

If you have experience preparing scholarly work to Chicago standards and can turn this around promptly, I’d love to work with you.
