freelance proofreader and editor
Apologies, but I am not currently accepting new projects or clients. Thank you so much for your understanding.
RATES OVERVIEW
I am equipped to edit and proofread a variety of mediums, including: webpages, newsletters, flyers, resumes, academic essays, college application essays, and more. Please, when contacting me, indicate the type of project you wish me to edit and proofread. There is a difference between projects that are non-academic and academic in nature. Please see below for further details.
​
FOR NON-ACADEMIC PROJECTS:
(eg., flyers, newsletters, resumes, cover letters, query letters, etc.)
​
Below is a run-down of what I charge for projects less than 1,000 words:
​
500 words or less: $10 flat rate
501 to 999 words: $15 flat rate
​
Once projects are 1,000 words or over, I charge $20 per 1,000 words. (Ex. A project that is 1,123 words long would cost $22.46.)
​
When contacting me, please indicate your preferred timetable. "Business days" exclude Saturday and Sunday. If you need a project completed by or during the weekend, please indicate so when you contact me.
​
Unless otherwise specified, upon project completion, you will receive one (1) copy of the project back, wherein Tracked Changes have been used to edit your document. If you would also like a "Clean" (AKA, all the edits are already accepted) copy, please indicate so when you contact me!
​
FOR ACADEMIC PROJECTS:
(eg., journal articles, essays, theses, dissertations, etc.)
​
If a project is less than 1,000 words, I charge a flat-rate of $15.
​
Once projects are 1,000 words or more, I charge $25 per 1,000 words. (Ex. A project that is 1,689 words long would cost $42.22.)
​
Please send your essay as a Microsoft Word Document or Google Doc - something that can be easily edited! No PDF's or Notes, as these can be difficult to access.
​
When contacting me, please indicate your preferred timetable. Please note that I cannot edit and proofread an academic essay within twenty-four (24) hours.
​
Unless otherwise specified, upon project completion, you will receive one (1) copy of the project with Tracked Changes edits, as well as comments in the margins.
​
Please note, I will not (re)write the essay for you! I am merely here to proofread and offer help with grammar, sentence structure, word choice, etc. I will not meaningfully alter the content of the essay, add citations, or craft thesis statements. If you would like help with any of these topics, please see the above paragraph for information on the one-on-one Zoom session!
​
OTHER NOTES:
​
All payments will be processed via PayPal. You will receive an invoice once the project has been accepted. Charges will be clearly spelled out, including any potential surcharges (i.e. If the project requires a faster turnaround or must be completed outside of business days/hours). Payment must be received within seven (7) days of project completion. Thank you!
​
The above rates are precisely what you will pay - no secret fees or added taxes.
​
Expect replies to queries within a few hours. As a rule of thumb, all queries will be answered within twenty-four (24) hours. Regular hours are Monday - Friday, 9:00 am - 5:00 pm EST. I do check my E-Mail outside of these hours and during weekends, but please be aware that I may not be as quick to respond. If you send a query late at night or in the early hours of the morning, please expect a reply during normal business hours. However, if I am unable to take on the project, I will respond as quickly as possible. I will make note of times that I am unavailable on the Contact form. If you do not see any such messages, please assume that I am still taking queries!
​
If at any point you have questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to me! I am here to help your project be the best it can, and I want to ensure you are as happy with the finished product as possible. If you are unhappy with my work for any reason, please reach out to me and we can open a line of dialogue about how to best improve your experience. I truly hope you will consider me for your proofreading needs, and I look forward to working with you on your projects!
