Editing Services
If you are looking for someone to do your basic line-editing and proofreading of your fictional work, then you have come to the right place. I will just state outright that I don't do any of the other fancy editing that is out there. Just the basic stuff.
I will check spelling and make sure you don't have any missing or extra words in your manuscript. I will check for punctuation and grammar errors. I will check to make sure that your work flows smoothly. I will suggest different words or phrasings if I think they will better the text. I will make sure that the formatting is consistent (chapter headings and such). I will also throw in the proofreading as an added bonus. I will look for any loopholes in your storyline that could be detrimental to your book and confuse your readers.
Since I am only just starting out in the world of freelance editing I am not going to charge you the earth. I will proofread and edit your first 5000 words for free...yes, you read that correctly...for free. If you are happy with my work and wish to continue using my services then I will be happy to oblige.
The rate, if you decide to continue working with me, will be .3 cents per word / $300 (Australian) for a 100,000 word novel
(Please note that this rate is subject to change as I gain more experience).
I will try to keep turnaround times between 3-4 weeks, but I'm willing to negotiate on this.
Revisions will be read at a further fee of 20%.
So, if you think that my services might benefit you, then please email me at
[email protected]
and we can discuss what you are after.
Please do not send me any manuscripts until after we have agreed to work together. Any unsolicited manuscripts, unfortunately, will be deleted.
