Family Manuscript Proofreading
Budget: £10 – £15 GBP
I have put together a family-focused manuscript and now need a fresh set of expert eyes on it. The goal is to polish every page so that grammar, punctuation, flow, and overall consistency read as smoothly as possible while preserving the personal tone of the stories.
The draft sits at just under 40,000 words in a single Word file; I can also share it through Google Docs if that is more convenient for inline comments. I’d like you to:
• run a thorough proofread—correcting typos, verb tenses, punctuation, and any awkward phrasing
• flag areas where narrative clarity or style feels uneven, suggesting improvements without changing the voice
• return a clean, publication-ready version alongside a tracked-changes file so I can review every edit
If you have experience working on family journals, memoirs, or similar non-fiction projects, please mention it when you respond. Turnaround within two weeks would be ideal, but let me know what schedule you can commit to and we can align.
