Editing Services

Even the best writer needs an editor. I can help! Got a novel you’ve been working on for months (or maybe even years)? How about an article you hope to submit somewhere? Maybe you’re putting together a work of nonfiction on your favorite topic. Whatever you’re writing, I want to help you make it even better.

RATES (all payments accepted via PayPal, Venmo, or Zelle)

Please note, these rates have changed as of January, 2024. If you were on my calendar prior to January (even if your edit is later in the year) you will be charged the old rates. 

Proofreading: $0.02/word

This is the most basic form of editing. I will check for spelling errors, grammatical mistakes, and punctuation issues.

Copy Editing: $0.025/word

In addition to checking for spelling and grammatical errors, I will check for continuity, accuracy, and readability.

Developmental Editing: $0.03/word

This is the most thorough edit. I will provide comments on all aspects of your writing including thematic elements and structure. 

Please note: I have a minimum fee of $175. If your total word count, at the rate of your choice, comes to less than $175, you will be charged $175.

Note: I do not edit academic papers or book-length academic texts.
