Proofreading

One of the worst mistakes that an aspiring writer can make is to be in such a rush to see their work published that they neglect to edit and revise it carefully. Great writing takes time and effort, and refining your manuscript is an essential part of the process.

 

Proofreading is not about fact-checking, style, continuity, or big-picture checks.  It is the last step before writing goes to a publisher and looks at spelling, grammar, typos, formatting, punctuation, and inconsistencies in word usage.

Proofreading for Authors

I offer a proofreading service designed to catch the errors that escape even the most diligent author. I’ll comb through your manuscript to look for:

Correct Grammar and Punctuation:

I’ll eliminate typos, subject-verb agreement issues, and punctuation mistakes, ensuring your writing is clear, concise, and error-free.

Formatting Consistency:

Is your formatting jumbled? I’ll ensure consistent use of quotation marks, italics, and chapter breaks, giving your manuscript a professional look.

Readability and Flow:

Sometimes, a sentence can be grammatically correct but awkward to read. I’ll identify and suggest improvements to enhance the overall smoothness and flow of your writing.

Maintaining Your Voice

My focus is on refining your work, not rewriting it. I understand the importance of preserving your unique voice and style. My edits will be clear and trackable, allowing you to make informed decisions while ensuring your vision remains intact.
