ARH-editing

Services:


I can provide editing of several kinds and become involved in your project to various degrees: 
  • proofreading
  • line editing: suggestions for wording, tightening of style and corrections
  • macro-editing: suggestions for reorganization, a change in style to communicate with intended audience, additions and deletions (after approval of changes by the writer, the next step would be line editing)
  • ghost-writing

Editing jobs I have successfully completed for clients in the past include:
  • proofreading for a monthly magazine
  • rewriting and updating of a book for young adults for a publishing house
  • line-editing of a dissertation on computer processors and line-editing of various academic articles in economics and political science
  • macro-editing of an academic book on the teaching of guidance counseling
  • macro-editing of biographies, an anthology of biographical essays, several novels, and several non-fiction books

Terms:
  • We will agree on an hourly rate of compensation. I will log time spent. I can edit online or you may mail me the hard copies.
  • I am changing my process due to a few people not paying me their second installment. So I am using what some other editors do: I will edit a 10 page sample of your book at no cost. (For a page with 1 inch margins, 12 point Times New Roman font, and minimal spacing elements, a good rule of thumb is 250 words for a double spaced page.) 

    If you like what I have done, you can send me the whole book, and I'll bill you, normally $3.50/page or less unless I'm offering a significant rearrangement in which case it would be more. So if your book is 150 pages, it normally would be $475. I keep track of the hourly rate of $35/hr., so if it takes less time, I'll refund part of your payment. 

    Another option would be to pay $175 to have me edit just 50 pages.​
