Hello there, Proofreading is the final stop before formatting and publication. We cover every component of formal writing, including misspelled words, incorrectly used terms, punctuation errors, grammatical errors, formatting issues and more. The consequence of overlooking subtle errors in your writing can mean deal-breaking results with your audience. For example, a sentence that uses “their” when it should be “they’re.” Our proofreading process is designed to spot all these seemingly insignificant writing errors that copy editors often overlook. WHY US? Team of BESTSELLING editors. Our expertise saves authors time and reduces costs. Rapid communication and better service. We work full-time on Freelancer. So, let’s get started on a project today! Best Regards, Meta World team.

The author of nine published novels, I have over fifteen years editing and proofreading experience. In that time, I have worked with all kinds of different writers - from first-time authors to the far more established - on all kinds of different projects: fiction, non-fiction, memoir/biography, self-help books, religious/academic/scientific texts, etc. In terms of my working practices, I will proof your 50,000-word m/s in three stages. Firstly, a basic run-through to eliminate any typos, grammatical lapses, the repetition of words/phrases etc. Secondly, a more development proof, focusing on pacing and structure, to ensure that the words flow and read well, and that each points is presented in a clear and logical manner. And thirdly, a final read-through to ensure that your work has that essential professional polish. Additionally, I will provide an interim assessment of the m/s within 24 hours of receipt. I used Track Changes in Word and can make a start immediately. I look forward to hearing from you.
