Please make sure your manuscript, document or file is the FINAL draft, ready for turn in.
I frequently see one or two problems on each page. If there are noticeably more than this, the account will be charged a $1.00 page fee to compensate for the additional time needed.
Don't Worry!! I'll communicate with you early into the proofreading process (usually about the first 5-10 pages of a manuscript) to let you know if this fee will apply. Sometimes this is because a different draft was sent to me by mistake.😊
Have a keen eye, NOT and AI, proofread your words.
Standard: 3 Business days (72+ hours) $0.02 a word

I am also an award winning and best-selling author with 30 published works.
I have worked with traditional publishers, now have novels with an eBook publisher, and I am also self-publishing.
I've also done copy and content as well as some technical writing for the past eighteen years in my career field, to where my creations have been used on websites, for marketing and promotional materials and have been approved by auditors.
I am a detail-oriented person who despises misspellings and typos in written works, as I have experienced them myself. So I understand the value of a clean and final version of your work, and I will always offer your project my full attention.
