Fiction Manuscript Proofread

Job ID: 40478772

Budget: ₹1,500 – ₹12,500 INR

My completed fiction manuscript is ready for a meticulous final pass. The draft has already been through developmental work, so the sole focus now is classic proofreading—catching lingering grammar and punctuation slips without altering voice, tone, or story structure.

Scope
• Work directly in Microsoft Word (Track Changes on) so every correction is visible.
• Address grammar and punctuation only; spelling has already been covered.
• No restructuring, rewriting, or content feedback is necessary.

Deliverables
1. A fully marked-up Word file showing all edits.
2. A clean, ready-to-publish version with changes accepted.

Acceptance Criteria
• Zero unresolved grammar or punctuation errors.
• Consistent application of US English conventions throughout.
• File returned by the agreed deadline.

That’s the entire brief—straightforward but detail-critical proofreading to ensure the novel is polished for its next stage of publication.
