Fees

I charge by the hour, and I have a one hour minimum.

For straight reading — no line edits — I can get through approximately 10 – 15 pages an hour. If I’m making line edits, then it’s approximately 5 – 10 pages per hour. The exact rate depends on your work and I would need to see a sample of about 10 pages before confirming the rate.

This page-per-hour estimate is based on an average of 275 words a page, which is how I calculate page length. I ask that your work be sent conventionally formatted: one inch margins, 12 point Times or Times New Roman, double spaced.

Extra time spent on writing critiques, meeting in person or scheduled phone calls is also charged by the hour. The minimum time for a critique is one and a half hours. The minimum time for an in-person meeting is one hour. Phone calls are charged in half hour increments.

I accept payment by check or PayPal.

We will always agree on a set price for the work before we commence.

If you have a specific budget, let me know. I’ll tell you what I can do for the price you have in mind.

If you would like a quote, send me an email outlining the nature of your project. If possible, include an email attachment of your work in Word format.
