Fees

My editing fees depend on manuscript length, writing quality, and requested turnaround time. I charge by the 250-word page, and my fees are competitive and commensurate with my experience and expertise. Rush manuscripts and manuscripts that require heavy editing will be billed at a higher rate.

Because every manuscript is different, I cannot provide an estimate for editing services without having had the opportunity to look over your manuscript. When you request my services, I will review your manuscript and then provide you with a written estimate of my fee and turnaround time (generally 5 business days for a journal article, if I have availability in my schedule).

Note that my schedule is usually booked several weeks in advance, so if you would like me to edit a paper for you, please contact me as early as possible prior to your submission deadline so that I can reserve time for your paper.

For first-time customers, I would be happy to edit a short sample (~250 words) free of charge.

I accept payment in U.S. dollars via PayPal (electronic transfers from bank accounts or credit cards) or by wire transfer from a bank account. You do not have to have a PayPal account to pay by credit card.

Confidentiality

I will not share your contact information or disclose any confidential information that you provide to me (e.g., the contents of unpublished documents) without your prior written permission.

Referrals

If you refer a colleague who ends up using my services, I would be happy to offer you a one-time 10% discount on your next paper.
