About this Gig
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

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, I assure my clients 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?
Yes, I specialize in copyediting and formatting. This means your book will be publish-ready when am done working on it. This is an all-in-one gig and will also save you from extra expenses.
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, proofreading, and formatting. 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.
