anyone want to make some money by copyediting my dissertatio
So many people are out of work and looking for odd jobs. Here's one for you if you're well organized, decent with Microsoft Word, and detail oriented-- I have just about completed my dissertation and would like to have it looked over for things like consistency in formatting and basic APA format stuff (like footnotes, references). Anyone interested? Want to make a bid? The document is about 225 pages double spaced. It's on psychoanalysis (birth stories).

You forgot to put an 'n' at the end of dissertation. That one is free, the other 225 n-less pages will cost you.
-
there you go--as you see attention to details is not MY forte!
-
$2/page.
-
What's the subject? What field?
-
psychoanalysis/clinical psychology--it's an analysis of people's efforts to construct myths of origin out of their birth stories.
-
"myths of origin"?
-
yeah, like cultures have myths about where the world came from the idea is that people can come up with myths about where they come from.
-
Sounds trey interesting. What program/degree are you finishing up?

So do you cite Joseph Campbell and Alan Dundes?
I'd like to read it. -
Well, it's managed to keep me interested for five years but now sometimes I want to run for the hills! PhD in Clinical Psych with an emphasis on psychoanalysis
-
Is that standard for a dissertation--500 pages? I had no idea. Congrats on finishing.
-
Thank you!! No, it's not 500 pages, more like 225. And I don't think 5 years is standard--I'm a slowpoke.
-
Ah. Apparently I also do not pay any attention to detail, so I'm probably not the best candidate for the job. When you said double-spaced, I read double-sided and was like "good god, these people have to write practically 500 pages to get their phd's--that's nuts. That's some crazy academic hazing."
Still 225 pages ain't nothing to sneeze at either. Good for you. And good luck listening to all the crazies, which I think is one of the APA accepted term for patients. -
ive never heard of anyone creating a myth around their own birth story, but then, i don't know many people who are insane.
-
sure i can do that - $2 per page.
-
I am able, and may be willing, to work on this with you. Please post a response with more info (due date, etc.) or PM me if you are truly interested. Either way, that's a helluv-an accomplishment! Good luck as you move forward!
Howdy, Stranger!
