Proofreading (Grammar/Spelling)
80
I will copy edit or proofread your entire manuscript. This service focuses on the technical aspects of writing, including spelling, grammar, comma splices, parallel structure, word repetition, punctuation, and so on . (For substantive or "large-issue" editing, check out my "Other Services.") You will get your manuscript back, fully marked up, within approximately three weeks. depending on length. Speaking of length, I'm an expert at cutting it down if it's too long.
I will use Track Changes in Microsoft Word (please don't send a PDF or Pages file) to provide inline changes on your text. If I notice a recurring issue, I will suggest sources to help you learn to avoid it.
I hold a diploma in professional writing, tutored writing for five years at the university level, and interned with a publishing company. I have over a decade of professional editing experience and am a writer myself. I love reading and look forward to seeing your work!
