How Much My Editing Services Cost

Picture
Every author is unique. The same can be said about their manuscript and the editing it requires. Here are some factors that will determine the price of my services:
  • stage (bullet points, draft or coherent manuscript)
  • quality of English language writing
  • length (how many words)
  • number of readings/passes

Most importantly, the price will be determined by your budget! After having an initial free conversation, we will discuss what I can do for you in a way that will be both helpful and affordable. 

​I base my initial price estimates on recommendations from the Editorial Freelancers Association. However, we can adjust the estimate based on what you feel comfortable with. I will be upfront telling you what I can and cannot do based on the state of the text and on your budget. If you would like to learn more about how our collaboration would work, see the description of my work process or contact me to book a free consultation!
