Authors spend months writing a novel. Before submitting a manuscript or short story to agents and publishers or before self-publishing, it is important to hire someone to copy edit it.
New authors who have little writing experience may also be interested in my services as my edits and comments provide instructions and suggestions on how to improve their writing, like a writing coach.
Fees for novels and short stories
When an author first contacts me, I offer to sample edit the first five pages (double spaced, 12 pt font) of his or her work. This free sample edit benefits both me and the author. I can assess the level of editing required. Authors have the opportunity to see how I edit as well as the amount of editing they will likely require. Once I have completed the sample edit, I consider it and the word count of the work in order to establish my fee.
Social media promotion
For any book I edit, I will also offer to Tweet about the book (up to 60 Tweets). For example, the author may prefer Tweets for 30 days leading up to the book launch and 30 days after, or may prefer that all 60 Tweets occur after the book launch. The author must provide the text for each Tweet and the link to the book (alternatively, I will re-Tweet the client's Tweets).
For any books I have not edited, Tweeting packages are available. I am open to additional social media promotion services, as requested by authors at a negotiated fee.
