Why Do You Need Book Proofreading And Editing

For an author, the process of writing a book is both lengthy and arduous. Even after editing the full manuscript multiple times, it’s very easy to inadvertently skip details because you are so familiar with your writing and therefore can miss your mistakes. After months and months of writing, you may be fatigued by writing your book and the overall process becomes stressful.

It’s good business to get your book and manuscript professionally edited, so the publishers and agents who are considering your work can get to the finish line with your manuscript. You can expect to preserve the integrity of your work and get success in self-publishing or successful publication if it’s error free in punctuation and has elevated word choice.

Frequently Asked Questions

Define book proofreading?

Book proofreading involves working on seven elements in a book draft. These elements include grammar errors, punctuation errors, spelling errors, sentence structure errors, consistency, writing style, formatting, and many others. Working on a book is long and tiring, and often if you’ve written a draft but have never really edited/proofread it, it can be difficult to attract interest from literary agents and publishing houses. It is very important to involve a professional proofreader that works on all elements required during the editing process, and prepares the manuscript to industry standards.

What is the difference between editing and proofreading?

Editing is a broad term that involves many things that are associated with polishing a manuscript. Editing includes developmental editing, structural editing, editorial assessment, and copyediting. All of these elements contribute to the macro-editing of a draft, and they work on various structural and story components try to edit all of the holes possible in the story.

Proofreading may fall under the banner of editing, or it can also be considered separately. Where editing works on the macro issues, proofreading works on the micro-editing of the content of the draft from the grammar and language perspective, while also ensure, the format of a manuscript has been corrected.

How do you find proofreaders for a book?

Every professional editor has their own specific skill and experience set that will help them to provide better service to specific clients and projects. There is no one editor/proofreader that is better than another. Therefore, here are some things to keep in mid when finding an editor for your manuscript:

Find proofreaders based on the genres they specialize in: It is best to partner with an editor who experiences the specific genre you write in. Having an editor who specializes in speculative fiction working on your romance book is probably not the best idea!
Review their professional background: Some authors want to work with editors that have done editing for well-known authors, while others do their best work with editors that have successful experience dealing with first-time authors.
Understand what kind of feedback you are prepared to hear: When working with an editor, you may receive feedback that is blunt and matter-of-fact and you may also receive fairly blunt feedback from an editor. It depends on what approach works best for you.
Be assured of communication: Your choice of communication style is your choice. You can choose whether to hold a face to face meeting in order to discuss and provide feedback more in-depth or whether you want weekly updates to only discuss the key points of editing your book.
