Hi Charisma,

Your idea about the stuff at the end of the book is perfect.

 
I'm a little concerned about your "chapters".  Are you inserting the words
"Chapter 1"?  What is the first chapter titled in the book following the
preface?

Because, if they are something like this, Preface, then One, Two, etc, you
needn't add the words chapter unless you want to. The tools are supposed to
be able to handle bolding and enlargement as indicators of a heading without
the word Chapter.

Now, if the book has printed in it Chapter 1 and then Preface immediately
below it, well, just leave it as is.

Happy proofreading!

I haven't seen you on the list before, so it's great to have you with us!

Mayrie

Mayrie,

Thank you :) Those all help a lot.

The thing about the chapters stopped me cold because I was not sure how
confusing it would be to the listener to hear "Chapter One:
Preface"  lol

On the last page of the back matter there is a page that says the publisher
would like to hear from readers. I just guess that I would do the phrase "We
Would Like To Hear From You" in 16 point +bold?
