Large Fiction Manuscript Proofreader
Budget: $250 – $750 USD
I’ve completed a full-length fiction manuscript—just over 50,000 words—and now need a meticulous final polish. The storyline, characters, and structure are locked; what I want from you is a laser-focused pass on grammar, punctuation, and other mechanical details that might pull a reader out of the narrative.
You’ll work directly in Microsoft Word (Track Changes) or Google Docs suggestions—whichever you prefer—so I can review every edit. Please maintain my voice and rhythm while eliminating typos, comma splices, dialogue-tag mix-ups, and any sneaky formatting inconsistencies.
Deliverables:
• A marked-up version showing all changes
• A clean, ready-to-publish copy
Let me know your typical turnaround for a project of this size and a quick note on similar fiction you’ve proofed. Accuracy, consistency, and confidentiality are essential, and I’ll be available for any clarifications while you work.
