How Does it Work?

It's really easy. Just fill in the form below, which will give us all the information we need regarding your manuscript. We will then contact you within forty-eight hours to discuss your next course of action.

Ideally, we would like to perform a manuscript review before any edits take place.

To do this, once we have made contact with you, we will ask you to send us your first chapter, up to three thousand words, just to see if you like our editing, and from our perspective, to see how many rounds of edits you could require. If you are happy with this assessment, we will enter into an editing agreement.

We won't do anything without your consent, and up until we begin the edit you have the right to withdraw your manuscript without incurring any charges.

Please note, if a cancellation is requested less than thirty days before the booked date, a £50.00 GBP cancellation charge will be payable.

Overview
  • You send us your first chapter to review (up to three thousand words, for new customers only). This should be .rtf, .doc, or .docx format. Once received, we will advise accordingly.
  • You amend your document as to our advice, or you can leave it to us to correct during the first round. At this point, you will either enter into an editing agreement, or you can decline our services. There is absolutely no obligation to proceed.
  • You submit your full manuscript along with a 50% deposit for one full edit.
  • We give you an estimated time of return and we start work on your edit.
  • You review your document and make amendments accordingly.
  • You are then invoiced for the other 50% of the initial fee.
  • Balance must be paid in full before entering an optional second round edit.
  • Once payment is complete, we can now look at starting a second round edit, if you require it. This will be charged at half the price of the previous edit. Once again, we require a 50% deposit with the other half being paid upon completion. There is no obligation to perform a second edit if you don't want to.
  • Upon completion of the edit, you will be invoiced for the other 50% of the fee.
  • Balance must be paid in full before entering the optional third round edit.
  • Once payment is complete, we can now look at starting a third round edit, if you require it. This will be charged at a quarter of the original edit price. Once again, we require a 50% deposit with the other half being paid upon completion. There is no obligation to perform a third edit if you don't want to.
  • Upon completion you will be invoiced for the other 50% of the fee.
How Much is it?

Our fee for editing is £3.50/$4.00 per thousand words for a single full content edit.

If you decide to proceed, you will then be asked to pay an initial 50% deposit in advance based on one full edit. The remainder of the money owed should then be paid upon completion.

To proceed with a second edit (if required), the original payment agreement will need to be completed/paid beforehand.

A second edit will be charged at 75% of the original rate. This round/rate is also the charge for a line edit should your manuscript have been edited elsewhere. No additional edit will be made without prior consent of the author.

A third/fourth edit will be charged at 50% of the original rate. This round/rate is also the charge for a proofread should your manuscript have been edited elsewhere. Again, no additional edit will be made without prior consent of the author.
