Two-Pass Editing Package

First Pass – Developmental Edit Letter

Second Pass – Line Edit

Perfect for indie authors, schedule two editing slots as close or far apart as needed. The first editing pass will look at developmental editing and offer the same service as the Developmental Edit Letter with an 8–12-page letter outlining my recommendations.

Optional Upgrade – To a full Developmental Edit Package (with comments in the manuscript) for the first pass of the Two-Pass Editing Package is also available.

After the first pass, the package includes a video chat of up to 60 minutes to discuss any questions or concerns  the author may have after the developmental edit while revising between rounds of edits.

The second pass is my standard line editing service.

Note – if a manuscript’s word count when submitted for any editing round differs by more than 1,000 words from the estimated word count when booked, the rate will be adjusted to reflect the change (higher or lower) at the pro-rated amount for each editing service impacted.

$0.04 per word, rounded to the nearest 1,000 words (Developmental Edit Letter plus Copyedit).

For example, an 80,000-word manuscript would cost $3,200.

Upgrade to Full Developmental Edit on first pass rate – $0.046 per word, rounded to the nearest 1,000 words.

50% due at booking both editing slots.

25% due when the Developmental Edit Letter is ready to send.

Final 25% (adjusted for any word count changes) due when the line edit is ready to send.
