Get the Best Value with a Combined Book Proofreading and Query Package

If you want to be ready to pitch your book to an agent or editor, bundling our Book Proofreading and Query Package services is simply the best way to go. You get everything you need at a price that can't be beat. Why pay more for these services separately when you can get them together and save money in the process?

Be ready to publish. First, we proofread your final draft. Because you've spent so much time with your book, lingering errors often become invisible to you, but not to us! Our professional copy editors provide a thorough spelling and grammar check of your document, correcting typos and inconsistencies. Second, we prepare a tailor-made query package for your book. Third, we draft a short synopsis of your work, neatly summarizing it with catchy, interest-grabbing prose. Fourth, we include a book outline that provides a chapter-by-chapter summary of your story, showing how the book develops from beginning to end. Fifth, we write a query letter crafted to grab the attention of a busy publisher or literary agent, helping you put your best foot forward.

What will I receive?

  • Line-by-line proofreading of your book, including corrections of any spelling and grammar errors, typos, and inconsistencies
  • Tracked revisions so that you can see and review all of your editor's changes, giving you complete creative control over your book
  • Commentary regarding any nonstandard elements, such as jargon, terminology, and proper names
  • Consistent formatting of titles, subtitles, headers, subheaders, and captions
  • Personalized editor notes that provide a summary of the work that has been done
  • A query letter that helps you pitch your book to prospective agents, editors, and publishers by introducing you and providing a short, intriguing summary of your work that will entice them to read more
  • A synopsis that offers a slightly longer and more comprehensive summary of your project with just the right mix of teasers and details
  • An outline that provides a more detailed chapter-by-chapter summary of your book, highlighting its key elements (e.g., plot points, characters, actions, and ideas)

Please note that the query letter, synopsis, and outline for your book will be created in Microsoft WordTM.
