You’re a self-publishing author.
But you’ve been over the words so many times that your head is spinning.
You need someone else to look it over with fresh eyes to make sure your writing is clear, engaging, and easy to follow.
That’s where I come in.
Hi, I’m Kari Bartkus, word nerd and proofreading guru.
What type of manuscript do you have?
- inspirational fiction
- Christian living
- theology
- educational curriculum
- Bible study
- memoir
- biography
- journal
You want someone else’s eyes on it to make sure no pesky errors get through. Errors that make you look bad–even though you and I both know how amazing you are.
Don’t worry; I’ve got your back!
“I felt from the first communication that Kari was perfect for me.”
Beth N., self-published author
Proofreading + Insight
I’ve got decades of experience editing, including fiction, Christian living books, memoirs, and Bible studies and journals.
Plus, I work closely with a local self-publishing company, so I know exactly how to clean up a manuscript and prepare it for publication.
When I look over your content, I’ll check for things like:
- Flow and Clarity
- Grammar and Spelling Errors
- Word Choice
- Consistency in Formatting and Structure
It’s a handy combination of copy editing and proofreading that really packs a one-two punch!
And when we’re done, your manuscript will be ready for the next phase of your publication journey.
