You've got questions? I have answers!

I do require a $200 nonrefundable deposit to add your manuscript to my schedule. Upon accepting your booking, I will send an invoice via PayPal or Venmo for the deposit, which must be paid before it is finalized on my calendar. This amount will be deducted from your final invoice when the project is complete. Again, this is nonrefundable. 

If you reschedule your project with less than a two weeks’ notice (14 days or fewer), there is a $100 reschedule fee, which must be paid before work begins on your manuscript. If you reschedule your project with 15-30 days’ notice, there is a $50 reschedule fee, which must be paid before work begins on your manuscript.

Additionally, your final invoice will be sent when the service requested is complete, and it must be paid before the final mansuscript will be returned.

Each service has its own turnaround time assigned—see services page for exact details.

However, I usually suggest an author prepare to spend three weeks with the editing process for a two-pass line and copy edit, not including a final proofread.

For a line/copy/proof combo, I would suggest planning for six weeks as I do build in a two-week rest period before final proofread. This is so that tired eye syndrome doesn’t set in.

These are all estimated/suggested time frames. If shorter turnaround times are needed, please discuss this with me upon booking.

You will submit a three-chapter sample, and your copy and line editing rate will be assigned based on the level of edit needed.
