ABOUT
Emma Flournoy, at your service. I enjoy many things, including but not limited to reading, thinking, and obsessing over details.
Do you have your words ready? A book? A poem? A fascinating article? I’m ready to take on the details and ensure what’s in focus is your writing, not insidious errors.
I’d love to do a free sample proofread on an up-to-one-thousand-word piece of your writing.
If you’re ready for proofreading, contact me with more information and let’s hash things out.

"Professional, knowledgeable, and patient, Emma is a delight to work with. I couldn’t have asked for a more enthusiastic or thorough proofreader."

Verity A. Buchanan
author of the Ceristen Series and Tales of Legea"Emma's sheer depth of knowledge in the field is a reassuring first-class experience. She achieves an admirable balance of emphasizing consistency, maintaining laser-sharp awareness of industry standards (past and current!), and listening to the author's vision. With every stylistic question, she was ready with references, resources, and counsel. Having a manuscript with a more unusual voice and style, I was approaching the proofreading stage with at least the average amount of apprehension if not a little more, but her approach both in the preliminary sample and the full manuscript review put me instantly at ease. Comprehensive, insightful, and communicative. Can and will recommend."

D. T. Powell
author of With Mercy's Eyes"Emma wasn't just an editor. She loved and believed in my project. Her work is more than a list of check boxes to her, so if you want an editor who will support and help you instead of treating you like a means to an end, you can't go wrong with her."

Bethany Fehr
fiction editor and writing coach"Emma makes proofreading exciting. She strikes the perfect balance between professional and personable. She's incredibly knowledgeable, and she generously shares her knowledge as if she's trying to teach herself out of a job. She's wonderfully thorough, not just in checking details and eliminating errors, but also in explaining the reasoning behind her corrections so that her client can learn from the process. I'm thrilled with the quality of Emma's service, and I genuinely enjoyed the experience of working with her. She's a wonderful person to have on your manuscript's side."

Adeline Hull
business book and memoir editor/proofreader"Emma blew me away. She was fast, left thoughtful comments, was kind, caught issues I'd missed, was able to explain the 'why' behind each correction, really knows what she's talking about when it comes to grammar and consistency, and listened to my preferences. She earned every penny and more!"

Stephanie Daniels
Christian YA historical author of The Uncertainty of Fire"Emma exceeded all my expectations. I feel confident that I have had the most thorough proofreading edits applied to my manuscript. She is worth every cent I paid. She works well with your vision for your manuscript while also explaining the standard and giving her suggestions. And her attention to detail is stellar. . . . Precision Proofreads is absolutely the perfect way to describe her work. I highly recommend her and think you’ll be delighted with your final product."

Claire Tucker
copyeditor and proofreader"Emma went beyond the call of duty in making sure that my booklet was ready to be published. I loved her encouraging comments and how she gently explained things, providing links and citing sources so that I could deepen my grasp on grammar rules."

Sarah Baran
writer/blogger"Emma didn't rip through my work with a callous eye and merciless red pen. She took the time to explain my worst punctuation missteps, not only correcting them but helping me understand what I was doing so I wouldn't make the same mistakes again. Her off-the-cuff knowledge of punctuation and grammar is seriously impressive (I had no idea there was so much to a simple hyphen), and her work is timely, efficient, and precise. Not only did I come away with a squeaky-clean piece of writing ready to be sent into the world, but some extra head knowledge to boot."

Hope Ann
self-published author"Emma was very friendly and easy to work with. She accomplished proofreading well within the timeline we'd set up together and did an excellent job of catching the little, annoying grammar and spelling mistakes I always miss."
Terms of Service
It would, unfortunately, be inaccurate for proofreaders to promise we’ll catch every single error (particularly in longer projects). It’s a possibility, but unrealistic to guarantee! I can and do, however, promise my utmost, and that your text will be remarkably cleaner than it was. Thoroughness is my jam, and if by my life or death I can banish typos, I will.
I reserve the right to reject any project on the basis of content, conflicting schedules, or personal unspecified objections. I don’t accept anything containing sexually explicit material, gratuitous or unnecessarily graphic depictions of violence, or extensive profanity. Feel free to contact me if you’re not sure about where your content falls, and thank you for understanding!
