Final Proofreading

Your book is written, has been through a line editor, copy editor and possibly even beta readers.  Before you send it off to the publisher, it’s crucial to have a last set of eyes read through it.  No matter how skilled an author is, it’s common for errors to be overlooked.  That’s where final proofreading services are essential in ensuring that you have the cleanest final product for publication.

 

A final proofreader will help catch those errors that may have slipped by.  We will read through the manuscript in search of misspelled words, grammatical errors and typos of any sort, referencing The Chicago Manual of Style 17th Edition and Merriam-Webster unless previous arrangements are made prior to the start of the job or a style sheet is provided to reference. 

 

Our proofreading services are primarily provided online, where the author sends their manuscript in Word format and we utilize the Track Changes feature to provide an accurate and complete record of all changes made to each manuscript.
