“Almost all writing begins with terrible first efforts.”
~ Anne Lamott

For all of my services, I charge an hourly fee. That fee varies depending on the complexity of the task. Proofreading costs less than line editing, for example. Further, every project is different, depending on the book’s length, the author’s writing style, amount of fact-checking, and so on. Therefore, I find it best to list approximate fees for a 90,000 word/300 page book as a starting point to help you assess your costs. Before I begin a project, I always provide an estimate of the final fee. I will ask to see at least the first ten pages of your book so that I can estimate how much time will be needed to complete whichever service you require.

​So, approximate costs for that 90,000 word/300 page book:

​Editorial Assessment: $825

Developmental Edit: $2140

Line Edit: $4020

Copy edit: $1245

Proofreading: $1440

Ghostwriting: Fee based on length and complexity of project

Nonfiction Proposal: Fee based on length of proposal
