How proofreading fits into publishing your fantasy story

Proofreading is the second-to-last step in publishing, taking place after formatting and before publication.

Like an editor, proofreaders check the text for mistakes. Instead of making major changes, a proofreader looks for typos, missing words and punctuation, and more.

I work directly with self-publishing authors to proofread fantasy short fiction, anthologies, and novels.

Once contacted, I provide a 1000-word sample proofread so you can be confident in my skills. I quote for the whole project based on word count and my availability, striving to work within your publishing timeline.

When it’s time, you send me the work as a PDF, which I’ll proofread using commenting tools for maximum clarity and ease. When I return the work, it’s up to you (and your formatter) to apply any corrections and queries that come up.

I can also proofread short fiction in Word and Google Docs for fantasy writers submitting to competitions, lit mags, and anthologies.

The advantages of having a fantasy proofreader in the UK include:

  • familiarity with UK English, if that’s what you’re writing in
  • similar timezones if you have questions or I send you queries
  • no extra costs to account for currency exchange

Thorough proofreading ensures the best quality writing; no more worrying about typos.
