Copyediting – $48 per hour

Many editing services separate basic proofreading from copyediting and apply individual rates; I don’t. To me, copyediting is copyediting. Any quality editing job involves proofreading simply as a matter of course. For this reason, I charge a flat hourly rate for my editing work. The amount you will pay, then, will depend on the extent of work needed.

When you entrust a project to me for editing I will do the following:

  • Basic proofreading
    • Spelling
    • Punctuation
    • Syntax
    • Simple formatting
  • In-depth editing
    • Clarity of ideas
    • Sentence and paragraph flow and transition
    • Conciseness
    • Proper word usage
    • Grammatical consistency

Referencing – $40 per hour

Especially in the academic world, different disciplines (psychology, history, business, etc) have unique style requirements for writing and referencing. I am versed in APA (American Psychological Association), MLA (Modern Language Association), and Chicago/Turabian, and have ready access to many other style guides.
