So you’ve just put the finishing touches on your manuscript, put it through the paces of a thorough development edit, and procured a stunning book cover design for it. What else could you possibly need for your future bestseller at this point? We’ve got three words for you: hire a proofreader.
Proofreading is the final stage that every book must undergo before it ends up on the bookshelves. It guarantees that all of the remaining niggles are caught — including punctuation errors, spelling typos, and grammar inconsistencies. All of this might seem to you as though they’re small problems, but they’re far from insignificant. In fact, such a mistake can be the most damaging of all to your book’s reputation, as it shows a dearth of professionalism that will set you back in a competitive publishing industry.
As such, freelance proofreaders who are employed to work on a manuscript usually bring decades of experience, along with a boatload of other skills, such as a keen eye for detail and a wider knowledge of the niche and genre.
