Proofreading - Fiction

"Working with Kate was a breeze. She was fast and thorough, pointing out issues and suggesting tweaks in my writing that I would never have discovered on my own. 

I'll be handing all my future editing projects over to her, so I can be sure my readers are getting the best version of my stories!"

Charlene Perry - Billionaire/Shifter Romance

This is for authors whose MS has been through some type of developmental edit and a copy edit.

What it involves

This is the final polish before publication and focuses on mechanical and typographic errors.

-----

Note: A proofread will not fix problems with the copy, content or structure of a story. 

If there are deeper issues with your manuscript, I would prefer to let you know from the outset than have you pay for a proofread you don't need yet.

What you get 

Fully proofread manuscript (one pass). 

Included is a check to ensure consistency across the board, and to catch any minor grammar, punctuation, syntax and word usage errors that may have been missed during the full copy edit. 

-----

Note: It is not a copy edit.

Second passes are optional.
