Hey, everyone.
Having formatted and proofread my own work for years, and checked other people’s work extensively too, I’ve decided to offer proofreading and formatting services on a professional basis.
As I’m just starting out, there’s a 30% discount as an incentive to get authors’ interest, and some other discounts available too (for returning clients, as well as if both services are selected together).
Full details can be found at my new website:
TW WRITING SERVICES
Both the services are to be done after the text of a story is finished, and neither involve creative or editorial changes. Proofreading is simply (but time-consumingly) about eliminating spelling and grammatical errors, whilst formatting will get the document in shape for submission to Amazon KDP, Smashwords, Lulu or CreateSpace (obviously the client can opt for just one or multiple formatting options, no extra fee for Amazon KDP + Smashwords).
As I’m just starting out, I don’t have testimonials as such yet, but I’ve always been prompt with beta-reading and the like, and have a couple of kind quotes:
Jo Michaels wrote in her review of The Adventures of Sir Edric [“Spewed Coffee on the Screen I Laughed so Hard”]:
From an Editor's Perspective:
This book was so well written, I found no errors. That's saying something. My brain is wired to find even the tiniest slip-ups, and this book had none. Kudos to the author.
From Duane A. Couchot-Vore, author of Korvoros (which I beta-read):
There is one question remaining from Chapter 19: How in the world did you see those two single speech marks? I could barely notice them knowing they were there.
If you’ve finished your story and want someone else to do the donkey work, you can contact me via e-mail at: twwritingservices@gmail.com or just send me a message via Chrons, and we’ll work out the details.
Prices will vary according to what’s being done, how big the word count is and whether there’s anything finickity, but for a ‘standard’ text e-book formatting would be around £50-60, and proofreading about £200-240 [NB these prices do not include the 30% discount].
