Proofreading
Proofreading catches errors that hung on through or were born during revisions. This could be anything from your run-of-the-mill grammar mistakes, punctuation errors, duplicate chapter numbers, formatting hiccups, or broken links. I also provide basic fact-checking such as for personal name spelling, updated company names, and dates. Proofreading is vital in ensuring a squeaky-clean reading experience, especially for those who are writing blog posts, newsletters, website content, promotional content, instructional guides, or resumes.
​
If you’ve hired me for editing already for your project, the cost of proofreading on that project will be reduced (although I do recommend hiring a different person so you have a new set of eyes on it!)
​
My proofreading service pricing is $0.014 per word.
If you would prefer proofreading by-the-hour, this can be negotiated.
​
Proofreading does not involve critiquing content, feedback, or providing a style sheet.
If this is what you’re looking for, please refer to my copy editing service page.

“ We recently used Britton Word for a rush proofreading project to review a client's changes to their latest book. We were impressed with the quality of Sarah's work and found the summary proofread report invaluable. As this book goes to press, we're certain it is in good form. I highly recommend Sarah for your editing and proofreading needs. As her tagline says, words matter!”
