Infinity

Self-Published Book Faults Foul Readers

Monday, 04 October 2004 20:00

Mistaken words can happen easily when you’re writing a book. So many things to think about and remember, and maybe with all the wordsmithing pondering, some authors believe all the words will all sort of fit together just right and the punctuation marks will magically fall properly into place. That ain’t gonna happen—no matter how good your spell-checker is or what grammar-fixer-upper program you’re using.

We strive to make every Infinity book as error free as possible, but the truth is we can’t change a single word without the author’s okay. That’s because the author owns all rights to his or her book—so only you can authorize changes. However, our optional proofreading and copyediting service provides the way for typos and goofs to be corrected on the author’s submitted book file. When authors utilize our proofreading service, the proof copies of their books will have all the corrections made and ready for their approval.

Cathy Kessler is the manager of this program, and she has over a decade of proofing and editing experience. The cost of our in-house proofreading/copyediting service is a penny a word.
