About this Gig
Vetted Pro
Professional-Quality, All-Human Proofreading & Copyediting for Books
Today, you have many choices for proofreading and copyediting your book before publishing, but nothing beats the human touch of a professional editor.
Whether you wrote your book yourself, checked it with AI, or had AI write it for you, I take care of all the final details to ensure your book is in peak shape for publishing.
I read every word of your book and evaluate the following:
- Spelling
- Grammar
- Punctuation
- Syntax
- Usage
- Sentence structure
- Clarity
- Readability
I make all needed corrections using Track Changes in Word, and I leave comments about further improvements you may consider.
My aim in copyediting/proofreading is to preserve your original voice while helping you feel confident that your book is clear, correct, easy to read, consistent, and facing your readers properly, so I use a light hand.
I also offer content editing, comprehensive editing, and beta reading for nonfiction and fiction books of all genres.
Contact me today for a quote.
I look forward to working with you!
Delivery style preference
Please inform the freelancer of any preferences or concerns regarding the use of AI tools in the completion and/or delivery of your order.

FAQ
How Does Your Gig Work?
If you would like to work with me, please message me first, attaching your full manuscript in .doc or .docx. I will take a look at your manuscript and provide a price and time quote for your project. If you are happy with the quote, I will send you a custom offer that will schedule your slot.
Do You Have Time for My Order?
I always have time to take on another order, but you may have to wait a bit. I schedule all my orders, giving each one ample time to be completed correctly, aiming for quality over quantity. Contact me now with your full manuscript, and I will let you know when I can have it ready.
Will You Sign an NDA?
If you provide an NDA, I will sign it. However, out of the over 1,200 orders I have done, I have only signed two NDAs. I promise all of my customers that I will never divulge information about their book to a third party, even in a portfolio or sample.
Do You Do the Work Yourself?
Yes. I do all of the work myself. I run two types of software on your book, and then I read every single word, looking for dropped or incorrect words, missing or extraneous punctuation, correct word choice, style issues, correct sentence structure, etc. I spend approx. 5 hours per 10,000 words.
Do You Provide Formatting?
I specialize in copyediting, and I suggest that you get a professional who specializes in book layout or formatting to do your formatting for you. There are lots of great formatters here on Fiverr, and I would be happy to give a recommendation.
What Types of Books Do You Take?
I take any type of book of 5,000 words or more. I do not take on academic papers (snooze!). The best way to see if I am a good fit for your book is to contact me and ask me any questions you may have. I look forward to it!
What Services Do You Provide?
The main services I provide are copy editing and proofreading. If you'd like to discuss any project you have, please contact me, and I will let you know what I can do.
What Type of Editor Do I Need?
Happy with your content and ready for the final polish, this is the gig for you! Need someone to read and point out issues? A beta read is a good place to start. Have an AI-written book? Try content editing. Want someone to do the whole project from start to finish? Comprehensive editing is the one.
Do You Show Your Work/Use Track Changes?
All of the changes I make to your manuscript will be done using Track Changes in Word. You will then be able to approve or deny them as you wish. I also use the Comment feature in Word to make comments on additional things you might consider.
What Is Your Editing Style?
As a copyeditor, I feel that my job is mainly to leave your wording as is as much as possible. So I only change things if they are incorrect, vague, or awkward. I use a really light hand, so the final product is professionally polished, with your unique voice shining through.
