The Proofing Lion
Hi there, I go by Divin, and I'm a trained and certified freelance proofreader. Have a project that needs proofing? Check out my information below!

Specializations
I proofread for a bundle of niches, including:

Experience
My credentials (provided upon request) are from my completion of the Proofread Anywhere course. I've also attended the EFA course: Comic and Graphic Novel Conventions for Proofreaders, instructed by Allyson Rudolph.Included below are the manuscripts I have proofread up to date. Each was written by the amazing Courtny, and proofreading was conducted as each was written to optimize posting time.

What is Proofreading?
Proofreading happens after everything is said and done. You've written out your document and gone through with your revisions. You're ready to post/publish, but you want to make sure there are no errors.A proofreader will go through your document, find the errors, mark the errors, and give it back. You get to pick and choose what changes you want to keep. Simple!No editing involved.
Rates
Most projects are proofread per word, while comics are proofread per page. However, depending on the project and its layout, a more custom approach might be needed.
| text | per word | $0.01 |
| comics | per page | $2.5 |
| custom | per hour | $20 |
I'm currently volunteering to proofread for most comics.
