United Kingdom

Beta readers uk covers the readers and editorial services working in British English, where a manuscript is judged on UK spelling, punctuation outside quotation marks and single quotes in dialogue. If your book is set in London, Manchester or a village with one bus, this is the reading that hears it correctly.

KP Editorial Services is the listing to look at here. What separates the United Kingdom from the United States, Australia and Canada is the manuscript itself: British spelling, punctuation outside quotation marks, single quotes in dialogue, and a house style that treats the serial comma as optional. A reader working in the UK catches a misplaced full stop after a closing quote that a reader across the Atlantic would pass over.
