Rate Charts



C.P. PROOFREADING

Your bill will be based on actual word count. The per word rate is .005.

Beta Reads cost half, expedited proofing costs double.

Beta Reading is a single read-through for continuity or major plot issues or any specific questions the author might have. It is not intended as any sort of definitive editing process.

The copy edit is a comprehensive going over for spelling, grammar, and punctuation issues, as well as for inconsistencies within the story, and more.

If you'd like a 2500 word sample edit, please contact me at at proofreader DOT jen AT gmail DOT com. (You know how to make that work properly, right?).

This pricing chart is intended to give you a ballpark figure. Discounts may apply.

I bill via PayPal with half of the projects total due up front.

SERIES GUIDES

For $.75 per page contemporary or $1 per page fantasy, I will create a guide for your book series. Below is the chart for contemporary books for a general idea of the cost. Your charge will be based on actual page count.

I'll work with you to determine any specific info you want noted in your guide. The basics include characters, their names, and whatever descriptions you include. Any personal information about them to include education, job/career, hobbies. Family, friends, coworkers. Which books in the series any given character appears in.

Bear in mind this guide will only include what you put in the actual book/s. I.E. What the reader knows. It won't include any information you, as the author and creator of this world, know from research and brainstorming.
