Hire a Freelance Copy Editor or Proofreader

There is nothing that says "amateur" like misspellings, poor grammar or disconnects in a text. A fancy flash video website can instantly tumble on the weakness of a few words. A book reviewer can quickly write off sloppy writing without ever noticing your content. Fortunately, it is so easy to head off those costly mistakes before they happen by hiring a freelance Canadian copy editor, proofreader or book manuscript editor.

"Make sure your words carry forward your messages, both express and implicit."

What our proofreaders and editors do for you

We can provide all the basics. We can proofread:

• correct spelling
  
• correct grammar
  
• correct punctuation
  
• correct word usage (Do you know when to use "that" and when to use "which"?)

Of course "correct" might include slang or other terms, depending on the nature of your audience and your product. And "correct" might mean something different, depending on whether you are writing primarily for the domestic market or the market south of the border. You want to consistently say "color" or "honor", depending on the market.

We go beyond simple proofreading to ensure consistency. For example, if some pages of your book or newsletter are written in very formal language, you probably don't want a few pages written more colloquially.

Our copy editors can do all this, PLUS we can add colour (or "color"?) to your manuscript. Some adjectives and adverbs can add a little color, but a few well-placed action verbs or powerful analogies can give your book or website an energy and vigor that compels readers to take action. (Re-read that last sentence; notice how the words that make it jump off the screen are verbs and nouns?)

Our proofreading fees are $20/1000 words and our copy-editing rates are $40/1000 words, with a minimum $100 order, priced in Canadian dollars.

You want your copy editor to deliver copy that meets your requirements. Let us edit your book, newsletter, article, web copy, manuscript or white paper to convey the message you want to deliver.
