A total of 26 chapters, plus appendices, glossary, index, and practical exercises make this a very useful 'pocket' book, just right for anyone considering freelance proofreading. You can learn all about copy-editing too. (Copy-edited by William Critchley and Michèle Clarke, CIEP advanced member.)
It's a complete professional guide for £14.99 (now only £10.64!), plus you can download a selection of helpful proofreading exercises if you wish.
Learn how to earn around £26 per hour with this new book and course. Right up to date for 2021. (You can follow all the latest news at LearnFreelancing.com)
Chart your way to success, improve your skills and find work in many areas: proofreading and copy-editing for book publishers, corporate websites, magazine features, theses, blogs, leaflets and more. William's experience in publishing covers many years, and he has proofread and edited hundreds of titles for well-known book publishers.
ALL ASPECTS OF PROOFREADING fully covered, also editing online using Word's 'Track Changes', and full descriptions and examples of proofreading marks in current use. There's no need to spend huge sums on heavily-promoted courses that are not always what they seem. This book is literally a course in itself - and it doesn't cost the earth. Want to brush up your grammar too? Commas, apostrophes, and full stops all explained!
The Pocket Book of Proofreading is just right. It offers so much more for much less. Learn THE SECRETS of SUCCESSFUL PROOFREADING and freelancing for publishers, and how to earn extra income from home.
The optional instant file download (PDF) is a professional three-part proofreading and copy-editing course with free extra exercises. Uses BS 5261C:2005 (marks for copy preparation and proof correction).
The Pocket Book of Proofreading offers a comprehensive overview of freelancing for publishers and working as a freelance proofreader.
NOTE: If this book were simply turned into A4 pages and made into a proofreading and editing course (which in fact it actually was originally), it would make a course that could be sold at the same price as existing proofreading courses on the market, starting from about £200. Hence the value of this popular book.
The Pocket Book of Proofreading contains 262 pages and is complete as it is. You don't really need anything more. If you are keen to learn more, however, the book tells you how to access a new downloadable proofreading and copy-editing course with FREE extra exercises (approximately 170 A4 pages, making a total of 432 pages!) at a great price. It's all you need.
Learn Freelancing offers a professional and comprehensive proofreading course, and you can learn about copy-editing too.
Many people have been successful as a result of taking this Proofreading and Editing Course, and have found regular work as freelances, working from home full or part time, or are now working in-house for publishing companies.
There is competition naturally, so you need the best possible start. You'll find this with The Pocket Book of Proofreading.
NOTE: the book was proofread and copy-edited by a distinguished, advanced member of the Society for Editors and Proofreaders (SfEP), so you can sure of the quality and relevance of this material. The SfEP has now been renamed as The Chartered Institute of Editing and Proofreading (CIEP).
