How the Process Works

1. Fill out the editing interest form to get the ball rolling. I usually reply to editing inquiries within 1-3 business days.

2. I'll give you a free 15-page sample edit to see if we're the right editor-author fit for each other. (If for some reason we're not, I'll provide you with a list of excellent editors I know.)

3. If we are a good fit, then hoorays all around! I'll send you a proposal of what I'll do for you, as well as an official contract for you to sign. If you have any questions about the process or what's on the contract, feel free to ask and we can figure all of that out.)

4. After you sign that contract, I'll send the first invoice (50% of the total payment must be delivered upfront before I begin editing).

5. After six weeks (or whatever my turnaround time is - it'll be listed in the proposal and contract), I will return your draft with an editorial letter (if developmental edits) and/or a marked up copy of your manuscript. I will also send the final invoice, which must be paid within 10 business days. Payment must be made either by check (preferred method) or electronic payment (Stripe).

6. And that's all! If you want to be a reoccurring client, you get 15% on each of your future projects.
