My pricing structure is based on the Chartered Institute of Editing and Proofreading's suggested rates. However, as all jobs vary in size and scope, please contact me to discuss and confirm a rate that suits you and the level of proofreading or copy-editing you require. I usually work on a fixed fee for a project or per 1,000 words, though if you prefer to pay hourly or day rates, I can do this.
The price will usually vary depending on the project, but to help you get a better idea of where the price might lie, here is a rough estimate:
- Light: £12 per 1000 words
- Medium: £15 per 1000 words
- Heavy: £18 per 1000 words
To provide a quote, I will need the following information on the project:
- Word count.
- Schedule and deadline (when you will send over the work and when you want/need it back).
- What service you want (light, medium, heavy). If you are not certain, we can discuss this but it helps if I know your expectations before starting out.
- Details about the work: for example, is it a novel, a brochure? Who is the intended reader?
I will also need to see a sample of the text but I can provide a rough estimate for the service based on the information above if you don't want to send the sample until you know I am available.
I am happy to offer a fixed-fee service based on per 1,000 words or I can give hour or day rates depending on what suits you best and the scope of the project.
Unless requested, all quotes are in GBP and are to be paid by bank transfer to my UK bank account.
