-Dialogue Polish: Ensure character interactions feel natural and snappy, minimizing excessive dialogue tags.
-Consistency Check: Identify any errors in character details, settings, or timeline.
-Proofreading: Catch all remaining human errors in grammar, punctuation, and spelling.
Requirements:
-Expertise in Contemporary/Small Town Romance.
-Extensive experience with CMOS and Track Changes.
-Ability to spot a "boring" opening or pacing issues at the sentence level.
-Native English speaker with excellent communication skills.
