Frequently Asked Questions
What is your turnaround time for edits?
The copy/ line editing package tends to have a turnaround time of around 4-6 weeks; whereas, proofreading services are approximately 2-3 weeks, depending on the length of your novel.
Do you offer a payment plan?
I believe every author deserves the chance to have their book reviewed by a professional, so I do offer payment plans in hopes of more authors seeking out editorial services. Payment plans are customized to your needs and can be arranged after initial contact.
Do you require a contract?
Yes! I will always require a contract to protect authors, their work, and to outline everything necessary so there's no miscommunication. There is even an outline of the editing and payment schedule as well. Contracts are especially important for the payment plan process! Contracts can always be revised to reflect any changes in requested services or payments.
Do you require a deposit?
In addition to a contract, I require a non-refundable deposit equating to 25% of the total bill. This deposit, along with your contract, allows me to reserve your spot for editing!
Do you offer rush editing? Is there an additional fee?
Yes, I offer rush edits, but it does cost extra. Depending on the length of your book and the timeframe you're looking for it to be edited. I charge an additional 7% to 25% to your bill. 25% or more is the standard within the editing industry because of the amount of time and work that goes into the process.
