Proofreading

An experienced proofreader on the Gotham faculty reads your project, marking such errors as grammar, punctuation, and word usage. The notes are confined to errors rather than fact-checking or offering advice on how to improve the writing/storytelling. (For help with improving the quality of your work, see our Doctoring service.)

Proofreading is available for any kind of written work.

You send us your document. (The proofreading can happen digitally in a Word doc or Google Docs, or with handwriting on a PDF, whichever method works best for you.)

When the proofing is done, your proofreader will send the document back to you with all errors clearly marked and with suggested corrections. The proofreader will also attach a brief note with tidbits of advice. Once you’ve gone through the proofreader’s work, you may follow up with questions via email.

We will give you a price quote before any work begins. Payment in full is due in advance.

Rates

The rate for all proofreading is $75 per hour.

You send us two pages of your document and give us the total word count. Then we will calculate the number of hours it will take and give you a price.
