Fast, Friendly, and Affordable Editor/Proofreader
« on: July 12, 2020, 09:50:59 AM »
My name is Heather and I am an editor/proofreader. I have been working on editing both fiction and non-fiction. My experience ranges from structural editing, beta-reading, copy/line editing, and proofreading.
My services (Proofreading and Copy Editing) cover:
* Spelling, grammar, syntax, punctuation, and tense, including technical consistency
* Inconsistencies and continuity errors
* Repeated and/or overused words, confusing passages, and tonal shifts
My rates are:
Proofreading: $0.003 per word (Example, an 80,000 document will be $255)
Copy Editing: $0.005 per word (Example, an 80,000 document will be $425)
Beta-read pricing: $10 for every 10,000 words. Regular novel-length books are a flat $60 for 50,000 to 100,000 words. Any word count higher will be quoted based on that word count.
**Submit your first 1,000-1,500 words for a free sample edit of my services*

 :littleclap haha oops, sorry!! It totally slipped my mind.

Here you go:  Beta-read pricing at $10 for every 10,000 words. Regular novel length books are a flat $60 for 50,000 to 100,000 words. Any word count higher will be quoted based on that word count.

Hope that helps!!

Legitimate Question in mind, who here would like to see my prices stay at the advertised special? I am thinking about it to stay for the affordability and ease of mind. Let me know in the comments or email me at: heatherediting4u@gmail.com

My editor did that.
She started low built up a clientele. Then slowly raised her prices.
