Description
Experience Level: Entry
Estimated project duration: 1 - 2 weeks
Please note! I need someone to check my book for grammar/spelling issues or if the wrong word is used etc.
I do not need an editor! Anyone who sends proposals for £600-£1000 like the last one will be declined!
Editor - Edits the book, sentences etc. Proofreader reads the book and checks for errors in punctuation, grammar etc.
If the person I hire this time does a good job for a book price, there are another 10 books in the series to be proofread.
All books feature erotica, smut, abuse, mental health issues, addiction etc. You must be okay with proofreading those.
This project is for book one only! If I find someone suitable I will then re-hire them for the remaining 10 books.
Book one-word count 72,000 words. The next books are longer, but for now, I am looking for someone to do book one and if it is done well I will hire for the rest.
Please ensure you use tracked changes. This then means I can see exactly what was changed and ensure it is okay. Small extract added from book one.
Please reply with the questions answered. Also, while you send a proposal for book one 72,000 words, please also tell me how much you would charge for the next 10 books. Total around 1,500,000 words

You seem to be confused. For 72K words of proofreading (not editing - I am talking about professional proofreading) would be between £700 - £2000, at minimum. Editing would obviously be much, much more.
This is a huge amount of work. If you are expecting to pay £56, you will get very poor quality indeed. It would be better to flush that £56 down the loo. -
Analysing whether the wrong word is used - falls within the remit of an editor, not a proofreader. Are you sure you don't require a copy editor?
