Proofreading

A Final Polish Before You Publish

*Proofreading is available only for copyedited manuscripts.*

 

Proofreading is the final polish of your book before it’s published. We'll comb through your manuscript for any remaining typos. If you send us a PDF of your book, we’ll scan it for formatting errors introduced during the design process. Our proofreading service is strongly recommended before you self-publish your book on Amazon and distribute it in bookstores.

NOTE: If your book hasn’t yet been copyedited, consider bundling a copyedit with a proofread—you’ll receive a 10% discount for both rounds.

what we'll address:

  • errors that were missed during the copyediting round

  • typos introduced through the design process

  • consistency with a style sheet if available

  • broken or stacked words

  • misplaced or missing hyphens

  • orphans and widows

  • other formatting issues

what’s included:

  • one proofreading pass through your Word document or PDF layout

  • one proofreading pass of your book jacket copy or Amazon book description, aka blurb (250 words max)

  • one hour of follow-up support over email
