I charge by the
hour,
and I have a one hour minumum.
For straight reading — no
line edits —
I can get through approximately 15 - 20 pages an hour. If I'm making
line edits, then it's approximately 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 conventionally formated, 12 point Times or
Times New Roman double spaced text.
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, bank transfer or PayPal. For credit card payment via PayPal,
a 3% service fee will be added to the invoice amount. For overseas
payment via PayPal other charges may also apply.
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.
