About this Gig
Do you want a polished, professional manuscript with no AI?
I'm J.G. MacLeod, a published Canadian author who offers human-only copy editing and proofreading for Romance and Young Adult books.
What you'll get:
- Thorough check of mechanics (spelling, grammar, punctuation)
- Improved sentence structure and flow
- Feedback on readability, pacing, verb-tense consistency, and syntax
My background:
- Award-winning author with 9 published novels
