Yes! I will do a sample edit of up to 1,000 words at no cost to you.

Please keep in mind that a sample of a developmental edit will be limited to the information at hand. A complete developmental edit requires the full manuscript as it contains information about the plot, character development, continuity, etc.

I have a contract for every package. Before any work begins, the contract must be signed and returned to me. I will then sign it and provide you with a copy.

Yes! I understand that the cost of editing can sometimes be overwhelming. That’s why I offer payment plans for all of my services.

If you are not using a payment plan, 50% of the total cost is due before any work begins.

The remaining 50% is due before the work is returned to you. The dates will be specified in the contract.

I understand that life happens. As long as you provide a 30-day advanced notice of any changes in date, you can reschedule without incurring additional fees. You also have to understand that I have a schedule to keep and other clients to work with, so I only allow a schedule change once.
