BY THE HOUR
Standard rates are $100 an hour. Rush rates are $125 an hour.
I will invoice half of the payment when we agree on the terms of the work. I will invoice the rest at key checkpoints or upon delivery of work.
If you have a long-term initiative–a company history, an annual report, a comprehensive plan, or other major project–you might want to come up with a different arrangement. Please call if you have a project requiring a commitment of three months or more.
BY THE WORD
We also edit manuscripts by the word. These rates do not apply to manuscripts requiring research or overhauls.
Here are the rate sheets for editing by the word:

READY? SET?
Right now, sit down and describe your project. Use the following format:
- A title and subtitle
- A one-sentence overview, describing who or what you’re writing about and why the reader should care.
- A 200-word overview or outline, with a compelling question that will drive your work.
- A sample of 1,000 words or so.
When you do that, you will be ready for the next step.
