Why Proofreading Matters for Romance Authors
Romance isn’t just a genre—it’s an experience. Readers want to feel every emotion, live every moment alongside your characters, and immerse themselves in the world you’ve built. But small errors—typos, misplaced punctuation, inconsistent formatting—can pull them out of the magic. Proofreading ensures your story flows effortlessly, allowing readers to focus on the love, tension, and connection at the heart of your book.
💖 For contemporary romance authors: A polished manuscript helps your story feel professional and refined, whether you’re submitting to agents or self-publishing. Clean, smooth prose lets your characters shine.
💖 For erotic romance authors: Passion and pacing should flow without distractions. Proofreading ensures that no small errors disrupt the intensity of your most intimate scenes.
Your story deserves to be fully experienced—without anything getting in the way.

What’s Included in My Proofreading Service:
This final polish ensures your manuscript is clear, consistent, and professionally refined, so readers stay lost in your love story. Here’s what I focus on:
💖 Spelling & Typos
Even the most carefully written manuscripts can have tiny slip-ups! I’ll catch those sneaky typos and spelling errors so your readers stay completely immersed in your story.
💖 Grammar & Punctuation
Every comma, period, and quotation mark plays a role in how your writing flows. I’ll refine your punctuation and grammar so that your sentences read smoothly and naturally, without distracting hiccups.
💖 Consistency Checks
Your characters' names, terms, and stylistic choices should be consistent from beginning to end. I’ll ensure that hyphens, capitalization, and other small details remain cohesive and polished throughout.
💖 Formatting Touch-Ups
- While this isn’t full manuscript formatting, I’ll review key areas for consistency, including:
- Font usage
- Line spacing
- Paragraph indentation
- Extra spaces
- Awkward line breaks
- Chapter titles, page numbers, and headers ...so that your book looks clean, professional, and easy to read from start to finish.
