Hire the best proofreaders in Los Angeles


Proofreaders help writers avoid the nightmare of finding errors in an already published manuscript. They’re an essential part of the publishing process, spotting errors of all forms that might otherwise go unnoticed by eyes that have seen the writing just one time too many. Indeed, occasionally, no matter how many times you’ve proofed your writing, it’s difficult to spot your own errors — for this reason, a new perspective on your work is priceless.


That’s why we at Reedsy have assembled the best proofreaders in Los Angeles in one spot — right here on our marketplace. We vet and accept only the top 3% of proofreaders to join our marketplace, so we’re confident that you can find a truly great proofreader who shares your vision and can help spot any errors that may weaken your credentials as a writer.
