Editing Services Pricelist
Fiction Prices
I charge per chapter, based on average wordcount.
Let me explain.
I estimate a chapter in a fiction book to be 8-15 pages, or an average of 11-1/2 pages,
Times New Roman, 12-point, line spacing of 1.5,
making each chapter an AVERAGE of 4,000 words.
I rounded.
Capiche?
I try to make it easy. For you and for me.
I mean, I'm an editor, not a math professor.
Developmental Editing: $55/chapter
(due before each chapter is edited)
Copy Editing: $50/chapter
(due before each chapter is edited)
Proofreading: $25/chapter
(due before each chapter is edited)
Full Package (all three levels): $100/chapter
(For this 3-in-1 deal, you're basically getting the Proofreading for FREE.
I do require half the total amount up front, and the rest upon completion.)
Note: If a lot of "fixing" and rewriting is required,
then a dollar amount per hour might need to be discussed.
Nonfiction Prices
Because chapters tend to be shorter in nonfiction works,
I prefer to charge per word:
Developmental Editing: $0.01375/word
Copy Editing: $0.0125/word
Proofreading: $0.00625/word
