Proofreading is the final edit of your book.

This is after you have had it developmentally edited, line edited, and formatted for e-book and paperback.

The goal of the proofreader is to catch any last errors in any of those elements.

This is why I will only do a proofread on the format you wish to have proofread.

What I proofread

• KDP
• EPUB
• Paperback
• Hardback

How do I track cite-proofing issues?

For the e-book, I will create a list of issues and cite the chapter, paragraph, sentence, and then explain the issue.

For example CH 5, Pgh 22, Sentence 3 there is an extra space between Marth said

For paperback/ hardback, you have the option of my providing the edits in red directly on the proof or I can create a similar format as above. However, I do require having the print copy and will not provide a proof from the PDF. Trust me, it is worth the expense, I catch so much more seeing it as it is intended.

I do not provide free sample proofreads, however, if I find too many errors I will return the proof with a recommendation for either developmental, line-editing, or formatting re-work.

My charge for proofing is between .01 and .03 per word. To get a quote, please fill out this form with the following information:
