FAQs
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Once a customer and I agree that I would be a good fit for their project, I discuss with them what their needs are for the project. This can range from anything from developmental editing to fine tuning and just being another set of eyes. We then agree upon a set time of completion (on average, about two weeks), and then meet again either in person or on the phone to discuss changes and edits if needed.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I recently graduated with a Masters in Publishing from the University of Houston-Victoria. I keep up to date on numerous writing and editing blogs, as well as keep an updated Chicago Manual of Style available. I have experience with MLA and APA formatting as well.
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
I realized that I had a great idea for a business when I had people offering to pay me to edit their school papers and check formatting for them. Now, I get to read things much more exciting than your standard book reports.
