Proofreading is the final step before querying or sharing your manuscript with readers.

I will carefully review your work line by line to catch small errors/typos.

With proofreading, I will:

• Correct spelling, grammar, and punctuation mistakes

• Fix typos, missing words, and repeated words

• Check for basic consistency issues (capitalization, character names, formatting, etc.)

• Smooth out mechanical errors without changing your writing style or voice

This service is designed for manuscripts that are already heavily revised and polished. Proofreading does not include rewrites, story feedback, or developmental edits; rather, it’s meant to give your manuscript a final pass before it goes out into the world.

Line editing focuses on the clarity and flow of your writing at the sentence level. My goal is to strengthen your prose while preserving your voice and style.

With line editing, I will:

• Rewrite or restructure awkward sentences for better readability

• Improve flow and pacing

• Strengthen wordy or repetitive passages

• Strengthen dialogue so it sounds more natural

• Flag areas where descriptions or wording feel confusing

• Correct grammar and punctuation issues as part of the editing process

• Leave comments and suggestions throughout the manuscript when helpful

This service is ideal for authors who feel their story is complete but that the writing itself could use some strengthening. My goal is to help your voice as an author shine through.

Beta reading gives you honest feedback from the perspective of a reader before your manuscript moves into final editing or publication. Instead of focusing on grammar or sentence-level corrections, I will focus on how the story feels and functions as a whole.

With beta reading, I will:

• Share detailed reactions and impressions as I read

• Point out areas where pacing needs work

• Give feedback on character development and believability

• Highlight anything confusing, any plot holes, or unanswered questions

• Discuss dialogue, emotional impact, tension, and reader engagement

• Provide constructive, reader-focused feedback that is actionable

• Deliver organized notes summarizing my thoughts on the overall manuscript

Think of beta reading as a test read with thoughtful, actionable feedback from someone who genuinely wants your story to succeed!
