Although my services are generally tailored to each author’s needs, there are some questions that come up consistently. Read on to find out if I’ve already answered your questions. If you still have an enquiry, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Why do I need a proofreader?
We all know that we should check through our work before we send or publish it. The trouble with looking at your own work is that you know what it is supposed to say. Therefore, you are less likely to spot any minor spelling or punctuation errors. I will look at your project with a fresh pair of eyes to spot anything you may have missed and put the finishing touches to your work to make it look polished and professional.
How do I know that Clare D'Souza Proofreading & Editing Services is right for me?
Showing your work to a stranger, especially one who will be looking for errors, can be very daunting. I offer a 1000 word sample proofread or edit of your document to ensure that I can tailor my services to your needs. We can also meet online to discuss any specific requirements you may have to ensure the best outcome.
How do you proofread or edit my document?
Most of my proofreading and editing is carried out using track changes in Microsoft Word, but I also use Adobe PDF for some of my projects.
