Fiction Manuscript Proofreader Needed - 26/08/2025 02:13 EDT
Budget: $250 – $750 AUD
I have a completed fiction manuscript that now needs a meticulous proofread before it moves on to formatting and cover design. I’m looking for someone who can spot every typo, inconsistency, and punctuation slip while preserving the rhythm of the narrative and each character’s unique voice.
If you have polished novels or short-story collections in the past, I’d love to see a few pages that demonstrate your eye for detail. A brief note on your approach—whether you prefer Microsoft Word’s Track Changes, Google Docs suggestions, or another method—will also help me gauge fit, but the primary requirement is proven past work in fiction proofreading.
Deliverables
• One file with all edits visible (tracked changes or suggestions)
• One clean, ready-to-format copy
I plan to respond quickly to strong samples so we can get started right away.
