beta reading
$25

As your beta reader, I will provide feedback on the overall story, plot, characterisation, and other, purely narrative elements from a reader-centric perspective. This service does not include editing of any kind and requires that you provide guidance on what kind of specific feedback you are looking for out of a beta read, e.g. specific questions you want answered upon completion, chapter-by-chapter or full manuscript responses, etc. The $25 listing price will cover up to 25,000 words and a minimum completion time of three weeks. Additional word count will increase the price and require additional time for completion.

proofreading
$35

The proofreading service provides revisions of grammatical and/or typographical errors within your manuscript. This means fixing spelling mistakes, wrong use of tense (past/present/future), run-on sentences, etc. This service does not include beta reading, but can be purchased for an additional $20. The $35 listing price will cover up to 25,000 words and a minimum completion time of four weeks. Additional word count will increase the price and require additional time for completion.

line editing
$45

Line editing involves improving sentence structure and flow, removing redundancies, and eliminating unnecessary words. This service will ensure your manuscript reads smoothly and comprehensively, providing an immersive experience for your reader and a seamless transition between scenes and chapters. This service does not include beta reading or proofreading, but can be purchased all-inclusive for an additional $45, or separately for the original listing prices. The $45 listing price will cover up to 25,000 words and a minimum completion time of five weeks. Additional word count will increase the price and require additional time for completion.

copy editing
$55

Copy editing is a service that improves consistency, accuracy, readability, and clarity through narrative voice, word choice, and syntax. This is the final stage of the editing process to prepare a work for publication (not including print formatting or other costs associated with adapting a work's aesthetics for publication in specific formats). This service does not include beta reading, proofreading, or line editing, but can be purchased all-inclusive for an additional $85, or separately for the original listing prices. The $55 listing price will cover up to 25,000 words and a minimum completion time of six weeks. Additional word count will increase the price and require additional time for completion.

hourly contract
$35/hr

If you'd like to contract my services for an ongoing project or multiple projects, I'm available at an hourly rate of $35 and an overtime rate of $52.50. Once our agreement is locked in, I will start logging time on a Google Sheets time sheet that you will be able to view and see notes left regarding updates on my progress, in addition to update summaries sent to you via email. You'll receive a PayPal invoice for my work once the project is completed, accompanied by a finalized time sheet logging my hours via email. Payment is required in full before I surrender the finished product.
