How would you like to make GREATmoney reading novels from home? Now you can! Do you notice every single typo in the books that you read? If you do, then you are exactly the type of person authors are looking to hire to proofread their books! You just need an eagle-eye for typos and a love of reading to start your very own freelance career proofreading novels.
What is proofreading exactly? It’s the LAST SET OF EYES a manuscript gets before being published, so you’re proofreading already edited (and almost perfect) books for authors. They just need YOU to catch the random typos that previous editors didn’t catch. That’s it!
