I see proofreading as reading a proof—analyzing it on a visual and content level for final changes after it’s evolved through its stages of revision.A proofreader ensures content is free of typographical, grammatical, spelling, punctuation, syntax, formatting, and other errors,and I hope I am the proofreader you choose to do this job.
I am a person who notices the extra space after a period, the “their” when it should be “they’re,” and the compound adjective missing a hyphen.
The job is all about tweaking the syntax and diction in a piece to ensure the most fluid, original projection of the content possible.
