How long does your editing take?

The length of time I spend editing or proofreading a document completely depends on the project. Short marketing materials can take less than half an hour—but manuscripts can take two to four weeks.


When should I contact you?

As soon as possible! I am often booked a week or two out, but my schedule varies because I do a variety of projects for different clients. It’s best to contact me early so we can hash out the details of the work and I can reserve time in my schedule for your project.


What do you need to know about my project?

The basic elements I need to know about your project include the following:

  • What type of project is it (manuscript, marketing materials, article, etc.)?

  • Is the document complete and ready for copyediting or proofreading?

  • When do you need to have copyediting or proofreading completed?

  • Has the document already been edited (primarily for manuscripts—has it undergone a developmental and/or line edit yet)?

  • What is the word count?

  • What program will I be working in (copyediting is often done in Word, and proofreading can be done in Word or PDF)?

  • What stylebook do you prefer?
