How It Works

Send me your document (or a representative selection of it) with an idea of what editing services you would like done. I’ll reply with a quote within 2 business days. A free sample edit is available upon request.

You will receive a contract that includes the fee and scheduled date of completion, as well as any additional services such as in-person meetings (Vancouver area only) or telephone consultations. You retain the copyright to your manuscript at all times.

Payment is divided into 2 parts: half is due upon signing of the contract, and the remaining half is due upon completion of the work.

A Rough Guide to Fees

The basic fee for the first 10 pages of a document is $100, plus GST. Documents larger than 10 pages are charged $100 plus $2.50 per additional page, plus GST. Based on this, a 200 page novel would be $100 + (190 x $2.50) =  $575 plus GST

This is a rough estimate: manuscripts that are especially technical or unpolished may be charged a higher fee.

Note: 1 page is considered to be 250 words. To find your page count, simply divide the number of words by 250. A 200-page novel is approximately 50,000 words.
