Ability to read doesn't have a lot to do with editing.
Most fools can read and write, the internet is proof of such.
The ability to write well is anothing thing. There's a reason some people are best selling authors, and others not.
I would consider myself a decent enough writer, able to get my point across. But I'm no professional and I know that, hence why I am looking for someone who knows what they are doing.
As for "free", if you had read the original post, you would see that I said I wasn't looking to pay. But I may be willing to if I had to.
