How much does it cost to hire a writer or an editor?
Hiring a writer or editor is a worthwhile investment.
Cost will depend on the scope of your project, including deadlines, deliverables, format, and word length.
No matter your budget, I can work with you to tailor a fair and reasonable quote.
I charge by the hour, or by project, and I work hard to ensure I always deliver a cohesive final product.
I offer a range of packages including:
- Final proofread
- Minor copyedit and proofread
- Full manuscript appraisal or first chapter + synopsis appraisal
- Full manuscript structural edit, copyedit and appraisal
- Specialist academic edit including reference list, in-text citations, formatting and styling
- Minor update or complete rewrite of website copy and marketing assets
- Full speechwriting service including research, writing and slide deck
- Fresh eye on a website, report, grant, promotion, CV or keynote speech
I monitor industry rates and price match my quotes. You’ll find more information on industry rates here:
