I am looking for an experienced proofreader to review a 50,000-word supernatural novel. The story blends romance, mystery, and fantasy elements, and it’s written in an engaging, emotional tone aimed at young adult and adult readers.
Your role will be to ensure the manuscript is error-free, polished, and consistent in style and tone while maintaining the author’s original voice and emotional flow.
Key Responsibilities:
Proofread the entire 50,000-word manuscript for:
Grammar, punctuation, and spelling errors
Sentence structure and word choice
Consistency in tense, names, and formatting
Ensure smooth readability while preserving the author’s voice and rhythm
Suggest minor stylistic improvements only when necessary (not heavy editing)
Use Track Changes in Word (or similar tool) for easy review
Requirements:
Proven experience in fiction proofreading, preferably in the supernatural, fantasy, or romance genres
Excellent command of English grammar and style
Attention to detail and respect for creative tone
Ability to deliver within agreed deadlines
Deliverables:
A clean, proofread manuscript (50,000 words)
A version with tracked changes and comments for transparency
Timeline:
Expected turnaround: 2–3 weeks from project start date.
Ideal Candidate:
A passionate reader and professional proofreader who understands the pacing, emotion, and suspense typical of supernatural fiction — someone who can elevate the manuscript’s quality without diluting its soul.
