Editorial Services and Rates

With over five years of professional experience in editorial work and a background in both creative and academic writing, my editorial services will help you hone your work until it’s publication-ready. My rates are based on the standards established by the Editorial Freelancers Association, but will vary from project to project. Each editorial inquiry comes with a complimentary assessment (500 words for shorter projects, 1000 words for full-length manuscripts), after which I will provide you a price quote from within the following ranges. I offer special discounts for indie writers who identify as LGBTQIA+ or BIPOC. Please contact me for more information!
