PRICING

First I want you to understand that there’s a difference between copy editing and proofreading. Please read the information on each service to decide which works best for you.

Proofreading ($0.75 per page*)

Your book has already been polished and you need a final check for minor typos or small errors. In this process, I will not correct grammar or the wrong use of tenses.

Basic Copy Editing ($1.50 per page*)

Includes checking for:

• general grammar, word choice, sentence structure, and clarity
• tenses, wordiness, repetition
• punctuation, capitalization, spelling, headings and lists

Heavy Copy Editing ($2.00 per page*)

Includes checking for:

• general grammar, word choice, sentence structure, and clarity
• tenses, wordiness, repetition
• punctuation, capitalization, spelling, headings and lists
• appropriate voice and tone for intended audience
• proper use of abbreviations and acronyms
• proper use of numbers and symbols
• errors in continuity
• line, page, and section breaks

*A page is 250 words, double spaced in Times New Roman in a Microsoft Word Document.
Actual price based on word count.

Please understand that if I feel your project needs deeper editing than what you opted for, I will contact you in an early stage of my work. It is your choice to opt for a more thorough kind of editing service then. However, if you don’t agree, I preserve the right to pass on the job, if it collides with my working policy.

Request a Sample

To request a sample of my services to see if you like the way I work, please send me an email with “sample edit” in the subject line and attach a few pages of your manuscript. Let me know the approximate word count, so I can get back to you with a more detailed offer as a reference when you’re ready for an editor.

Payments
I require half of the payment up front and the other half upon completion. I will send you a paypal invoice for each. If you need to talk about other payment options please send me an email and we can discuss it.
