Rates
- I offer a regular rate of $0.012 per word, which is $12 per 1,000 words.
- You can calculate a quote here by putting in the word count of your text!
- The rate for poetry is a bit lower, at $0.01 per word ($10 per 1,000 words). To quote a price for that, just knock 20% off the regular rate calculation.
First-Time Discount
If we’re working together for the first time, congratulations! You’re due for a 20% discount on the full price of your proofread.
Free Sample
I’m happy to proofread an up-to-one-thousand-word sample of your writing free of charge, if you’d like to see how I work before committing.
Big-Book Discount
Everything authors have to pay for in order to ready their manuscripts for publication can be overwhelming, I know, and it’s especially evident the more words you have to prepare! In light of that, I want to make it a smidgen easier on those of you who have really, really long manuscripts.
If your word count is 100K or over, these are the discounts you can expect:
- 10% off 100,000+ words
- 15% off 200,000+ words
- 20% off 300,000+ words
Payment Process
- Payment is generally through PayPal or Wave invoicing. No account is needed for you to make a payment through either of those.
- For projects of 5,000+ words, I ask a 30% down payment on the whole amount before starting. The remaining balance can be paid once I’m finished or up front with the deposit—whichever you prefer.
For anything less than 5,000 words, you can pay the entire amount once I finish or up front. We’ll hash out the details.
- If you have any questions or concerns, absolutely let me know!
