When Proofreading becomes a Treasure Hunt, money is made! This proofreading job is a real treasure hunt. The base pay is 5$ to find typos in a chapter between 3,500 and 5,500 words. For each error found in the text, 10¢ is added as a bonus, so a proofreader can make as much money as there are legitimate errors found and noted in red ink in the hard copy (no digital copy will be provided). Proofreaders who show exceptional skill at discerning the most invisible of typos will be privileged to take on additional chapters on upcoming projects in the future. Proofreaders will be provided with a checklist to assist in methodically hunting for potential errors. Note also that finding 80% of typos is a requirement for job fulfillment, not an option. Finding 95% of errors will add an extra 5$ bonus on top of the 10¢ per error found Treasure Hunt Maximal Pay Formula is: 5$+5$+10¢X=______ $ Requirements are access to an unabridged dictionary, an ability to cull at least 90% of all typos, and lastly, an interest in fantastical literature. If you can handle these basics for being an effective proofreader, send us a note.

**Proofreader/Copy Editor Needed – Accounting Firm Web Pages (Short Project)** **Overview** I have 28 web pages of copy for a CPA firm website that need a light but sharp human edit. The content is already written and has passed AI detection — this is NOT an AI writing job. I need a skilled human editor to review and tighten it. **What needs to be done:** - Check that headlines and intro paragraphs are congruent (the headline promises what the intro delivers) - Fix any awkward or robotic-sounding sentences - Break up run-ons and tighten rambling phrasing - Smooth transitions where the writing shifts tone or feels choppy - Light grammar/punctuation cleanup as needed - Flag anything that sounds off-brand for a small-town CPA firm (warm, trustworthy, straightforward tone) **What this is NOT:** - Do not rewrite entire sections - Do not run content through AI tools — this copy must remain human-written - Do not change the factual content or structure **Deliverable** Return the edited copy in the same format you receive it (Google Doc or Word). Use Track Changes or highlight your edits so I can review and accept/reject. **Ideal Candidate** - Strong editorial instincts, not just grammar checking - Experience editing web copy or marketing content - Understands conversational but professional tone - Fast turnaround

Wanted: a person who loves grammar and making corrections. My name is Toby Neighbors. I’m a full time novelist with over 120 books published. I’m seeking an enthusiastic proofreader to go through manuscripts looking for errors in grammar, spelling, missed words, and difficult sentence structure. I go over my manuscripts with Grammerly, but inevitably things get missed. I need a reliable proofreader who can read through the manuscript make minor changes, and return to me a clean copy. I typically write fast, and send my proofreader the manuscript in four sections. Each one is approximately 20k words. Once your work is complete I will send the manuscript to a panel of Beta readers who return it with any mistakes that slipped past you. I average about a book a month. I have a hard budget of $300 per manuscript (unless it goes over 100k words). I’m looking for someone who loves Sci-Fi but enjoys good stories in all genres. If that’s you, and you are interested in ongoing work, I would love to hear from you. I have attached a short sample of my latest book to give you an idea of what you’ll be working with. It is exactly what was sent to my previous editor.
