PLEASE NOTE: I am NOT a replacement for a copy editor! I do a completely different task. While there may be some glaring things I correct because that annoy me, I cannot guarantee I will have caught any or everything else. Especially considering so much re-working will shift the manuscript.
- The first step is to contact me with the scope of your project, as well as expectations.
- I will then email you a quote and answers to your queries.
- You can also request an example edit of a 10 page sample of your work. Please format your segment in Word, 12pt font (legible typeface) and double spaced lines with 1" margins.
- Once fees, dates, and expectations have been discussed fully, a service contract will be distributed.
- New clients will be asked to sign a Master Service Agreement. This document summarizes our business relationship as a whole, and is used as a base guideline for any additional services requested.
- For recurring authors, you will not be required to sign an additional Master Service Agreement unless updates and corrections need to be made.
- Then for the new project, a Statement of Work will also be sent over that details the exact specifications of one solitary book/project.
- A new Statement of Work will need to be signed after every book/project requested.
- Once everything is finalized and rates agreed upon, I will email you an invoice with an upfront payment of half the total fee through Stripe.
- When the deposit has been received, please send me your project, and I will begin your work. Again, please format your book in Word, 12pt font (legible typeface) and double spaced lines with 1" margins.
- Upon finishing your work I will send you an invoice for the completed amount. Once that has been received, I will then send you your documentation.
Late Fee Policies:
I do not release edits until payment is received. Final payment is expected within two weeks of invoicing.
After that, a late fee of five percent (5%) per month or the highest rate allowed by law, plus a monthly $25 rebilling fee will be added to each additional invoice.
