My Proofreading Services
Welcome to my service page! Just some info to give you an idea of my experience. I have a certificate in General Proofreading Theory and Practice from Proofread Anywhere. A course where I completed 10 modules, 40 practice essays, and a final exam (93%) to receive the certificate. Since then I have worked on manuscripts, blog articles, and short stories. My expertise is with creative writing or medical themed content and I prefer to work with books and blog article formats, but I'm open to other styles too.
With all of my writing services I send out a style sheet for you to fill out that will ask basic questions regarding formatting, spelling, and number preferences. I will walk you through the whole process so whether this is your debut novel or your millionth blog post, you'll feel confident knowing you got it Checked By Katie.

1
Copy Editing (aka Line Editing)
$0.015/word
This is the second to last stage of the editing process. Developmental and structural edits should already be complete. This is a fine-tuning of the piece. My copy editing services include a focus on prose -- eliminating repetition, awkward wording or dialogue, noting possible questions for a reader. The service would also include corrections of inconsistencies in story line and minor fact checking as needed.

Proofreading
$0.01/word
This is the final stage. All other editing stages (developmental, structural, copy/line editing) should be complete. My proofreading service includes a sweep of the entire piece to catch spelling, grammar, and punctuation mistakes as well as fix echo words and misused words. I would also make suggestions based on your style guide and style sheet to guarantee consistency throughout your document.

Book Formatting
$40-$45/hour
This is the layout of your book once all editing processes have been complete and your book is ready for print (or ebook) formatting. My book formatting service includes formatting a table of contents, title page, copyright page, author bio(s), and all body text and images.
*All fonts need to be purchased by the client.
