How much is this going to cost me?
As you might imagine, this is the question I hear most often.
I don’t believe in charging by the word. Why should you pay for quality editing whilst breaking the bank? I prefer charging a flat rate depending on word count.
Copy/line editing
A 20% non-refundable deposit is required on booking. I also offer an optional extra round of proofreading at a discounted rate.
Prices for books of up to 10,000 words are a flat rate of £50
Price for books of 30,000 words: £100 ($120) + £30 extra for an optional round of proofreading
Price for books of 50,000 words: £200 ($225) + £70 extra for an optional round of proofreading
Prices for books of 80,000 words £250 ($350) + £100 extra for an optional round of proofreading. Prices for books of over 100,000 words are dependent on word count
Note: payments are charged in UK pounds GBP. Dollars are just a rough estimate for international clients.
Developmental editing
Prices for anything up to 10,000 words is £100
Prices for 30-50,000 words: £250 ($340)
Price for 100,000-word books: £350 (475)
Prices for up 150,000 words £450 ($600)
An extra round of either copy editing or proofreading is also available at a discounted rate.
