FAQ
What is the difference between proofreading and editing?
Proofreading corrects spelling, grammar, punctuation, repeated or missing words, and dialogue punctuation. A proofreader does not make changes at the story, character, plot level
What file format should I send?
Please send your manuscript as a Microsoft Word (.doc or .docx) file whenever possible so corrections can be shown using tracked changes.
How do I order if my manuscript is longer than the package word count?
If your manuscript is significantly longer or shorter than packages options you can use the extras to get you to the right word count, or we can talk about it when you contact me.
What genres do you work with?
I work with a variety of genres; if you have a very spicy or explicit manuscript, please let me know up front.
