✍ Self-Publishing Support

Tailored proofreading for writers publishing their own work, to perfect your manuscript before release.

Areas of Expertise:

A fresh --and second-- set of eyes. Whenever you are the source of the input, the output looks different to you than everyone else. Whether you actually wrote it or not, your text looks like what you meant. BUT, after seeing a bizillion 'and and' lines in business documents or the wrong kind of 'their,' 'there,' or 'there,' I can tell you that the language police are catching it. Sometimes Grammarly catches it, sometimes not. OR your grammar checker notes something as wrong that isn't.
