Proofreading for

"[Lisa's] mark up was incredibly clear. It was very useful to have suggestions of how to minimise disruptions to the text flow.


I have been impressed with Lisa’s professionalism and reliability. She is a pleasure to work with."


Kelly Smith, Editor, Allison and Busby

Working with independent authors, publishers, writing mentors and book coaches.

I'm keen that we have a conversation so that I can understand what you're looking for.


That's why I offer a free exploratory call so we can see if we suit each other and what your needs are as you prepare to publish.

Ready for proofreading? Let's talk.
Proofreading The double-check before publication In a traditional publishing workflow, proofreading comes after your book has been copyedited and typeset. For PDFs, I mark up using BSI symbols or Adobe highlight and comment functions. For Word, I use Track Changes. Close reading every line of your book, I will check spelling, punctuation and grammar. I will look at consistency with your editorial conventions/your copyeditor's style sheet and double-check other elements of the manuscript, for instance, whether the page numbers are in sequential order. If you'd prefer more intervention, proof-editing may suit you. I offer a free exploratory call so we can talk about where you are in the publishing process.

I will quote a flat fee – you'll know in advance how much your project will cost.

Please check out the services page for how I'll quote for your proofread.
