Proofread Family Memoir Manuscript
Budget: €250 – €750 EUR
I have completed a family-focused book and need a fresh set of professional eyes to polish it before I send it to print. I want every sentence to read smoothly and consistently, with all spelling, grammar, punctuation, and formatting issues resolved while preserving the original voice throughout.
Here’s what I need from you:
• A thorough proofread that corrects spelling, grammar, punctuation, and layout inconsistencies.
• Consistent application of one clear English variant (American, British, or Australian) based on your professional recommendation once you have reviewed the text.
• Preservation of the existing tone and narrative flow so the family stories remain authentic.
• Delivery of two files: one with tracked changes and comments, and a final clean copy ready for layout.
• A concise style sheet summarizing key decisions (e.g., hyphenation choices, capitalization conventions) for future reference.
The manuscript is already written and organized; your focus is purely on accuracy and readability. If you have experience proofreading memoirs or family histories, let me know—samples or references are welcome. I look forward to working together to make these stories shine.
