FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Typically, I charge by the word. Rates vary based on the type of editing being done (developmental vs. copy editing), if it’s proofreading only, or if I’m doing an editorial assessment. There are also some charges for one-on-one sessions.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I like to discuss the project with the client so I can get a better feel for the message the author is trying to convey. Throughout the editing process I like to keep communication so if I have questions of clarification I can make better suggestions for changes.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have taken several English courses in college, including: Bible as Literature (language analysis) English Composition (learning research and citing), and Creative Writing (fiction and poetry writing). I have also taken a CE class for proofreading skills.
