“Proofreading with Kelly for my debut book was my first experience working with a proofreader and navigating all the steps of self-publishing as an indie author. Kelly made the process transparent and answered all my questions. She was clear and communicative about payment and timelines, flexible with scheduling, accommodating on file formats and set up to make it easier for me to format my book later, and so supportive of my writing, story, and characters. I would happily work with her again to proofread my next book!”
– Sri Savita, award-winning author of The Deed with the Duke
“I’ve now had Kelly work on several projects for me, and I plan to use her services for all of my future projects. Her attention to detail is excellent, and she makes wonderful suggestions. I appreciate her in-line comments and even the explanations behind my common errors. She is very professional and personable, and I have enjoyed working with her. 10/10 Highly Recommend.”
– Christina Wallace, author of The Light Keeper series
“I worked with Kelly on my debut romance through my copy and line edits and proofreading. My only disappointment was I didn’t have her to help with my developmental edits! Kelly was professional, engaged and patient. She guided me expertly through the process and has a true talent for understanding characters quickly and in depth. Her comments and suggestions were insightful and there is no doubt her input made my debut a far better novel. I will work with Kelly on any and all future projects.”
– Alice Calliva, author of Gone Fishing
“Trusting someone with your manuscript can be panic-inducing, but working with Kelly was genuinely a joy. She proofread my manuscript for The Bear and the Lamb, and I’d happily work with her again on future projects. Her feedback was thoughtful, she delivered on time, and her fee was more than reasonable. As an indie author, I couldn’t ask for more.”
– Halle Oak, author of The Bear and the Lamb
“I hired Kelly at Velvet Library for proofreading my debut novel, Demon of the Deep. As someone whose writing tends to lean more stylistic than grammatically correct, her help was invaluable in not only making sure all my commas were placed correctly, but she also caught several typos as well. Her work was top tier and I would definitely hire her again for future projects!”
– Briar Belmont, author of the Demon of the Deep series
