Proofread

This fine-toothed comb service gives authors a sense of confidence that their work, whether submitting to an agent for representation to a traditional publishing house, submission to an indie publisher, or in preparation to self-publish, is of the highest quality. You only have one chance to make a first impression.  Let Finalize Editorial put the final burnishing touches on your beautiful book, compelling readers to ride upon the stream of your story world to the final adventure.

A single pass of revision suggestions made in the typeset PDF of the manuscript. Typeset manuscript PDF will be marked with any issues found in spelling, formatting, grammar, continuity, and punctuation. Author will receive their PDF marked up, ready to return to their typesetter for final fixes.

x1 one-hour consultation to review and discuss questions, ideas, paths forward in the publishing process or any other support pertaining to the proofread. To be redeemed during the service, or within 60 days after the project’s end. Consultation will be recorded upon request.

This service takes roughly 4-6 weeks to complete. I dedicate this amount of time to make sure the proofreading service is providing abundant value to my author clients.
