The last pair of eyes before the world's.
£9per 1,000 words
Professional human proofreading and copy-editing with tracked changes, a style sheet and a plain-English report on recurring issues.
Readers forgive a great many things. A typo on page one is rarely one of them. Our editors work in tracked changes so you can see and accept every single alteration — nothing is quietly rewritten behind your back.
Copy-editing goes further than proofreading: consistency of names, timeline and terminology, repetition, dialogue punctuation and the small tics every writer has and cannot see in their own work.
You receive the edited file, a clean file, a style sheet for your series, and a short report on the patterns worth watching in your next book.
