On a budget? No problem!
I will always do my best to work within a writers budget. This world is absolutely crazy! We creatives have to stick together and with that, all I ask is that you also work with me and be candid about what you can and can’t do. I want to create a safe space for you to discuss financial matters.
Want to know if I’m the editor for you?
Request a free sample edit from me!
To do this, head to my contact page and let me know what you’re working on. For sample edits, I will ask that you send me 20 pages of a specific section you are having trouble with so that I can get a good idea of what I would be working with. This also allows us to talk about the state of your manuscript and discussing which service is right for you. Turn around time for these will be two days.
