I need a proofreader for my book manuscript. The book is a 50,000-word nonfiction how-to book written for a general audience. The manuscript has been edited and copy-edited; I need a final polish. I'd like your suggested changes done in pen on a hard copy and mailed back to me. Once you've accepted the job and begin, I'll need it completed within two weeks maximum.
