The Final Polish Before Your Book Goes Live

You've written the story, edited it, reformatted it — but there's one more step every professional author takes before publishing: proofreading. It's the final quality check that separates amateur books from professional ones.

Our proofreaders review your manuscript line by line, catching typos, grammar slips, punctuation errors, inconsistent formatting, and anything else that could pull a reader out of the story. You get a perfectly polished book ready for print and digital publishing.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about our proofreading service.

What's the difference between proofreading and editing?
Editing addresses the structure, flow, and content of your manuscript. Proofreading is the final quality check — catching typos, punctuation errors, formatting issues, and small grammatical slips before publishing. Proofreading should always come last.
How much does proofreading cost?
Pricing depends on word count, turnaround time, and manuscript complexity. Request a free sample proofread and we'll give you a fixed quote — usually within 24 hours.
How long does proofreading take?
Sample proofreads are delivered within 48 hours. Full manuscripts typically 5–7 days depending on length. Rush options available for 24–48 hour delivery.
Will you change my writing style?
No. Proofreading corrects errors — it doesn't rewrite content or change your voice. Every edit is tracked so you can see exactly what was changed and why.
What file formats do you accept?
Microsoft Word (.doc, .docx), Google Docs, PDF, and most other common formats. We deliver in Word with track changes as standard, or Google Docs on request.
Do you proofread both fiction and nonfiction?
Yes. We proofread all genres — fiction (novels, short stories, children's books), nonfiction (memoirs, business, self-help), academic, business, and website content.
