Dear clients,

Pricing and Contact Information

Contact me through my email address: claudettecruz@ymail.com

My rate is a flat fee* of $350 plus Paypal fees for full copyediting for manuscripts up to 65k words.

I check for accuracy, spelling, grammar, punctuation, correct word usage, and ease of reading, offering comments and suggestions on what needs to be reworked and possible ways to do so.

Basic proofreading is $250 plus Paypal fees.* Proofreading only checks for punctuation and misspellings.

If you want your manuscript back within 1 week, I offer rush delivery for an extra $100.

A $100 deposit is required upon booking. Remaining balance to be paid in full upon completion of the first draft.

Feel free to request a sample edit. I'd be happy to do the first 5-10 pages for you.

*Flat fees apply to manuscripts under 65k words in readable condition. It will cost $100 extra if the manuscript needs extensive rewriting done. I charge an extra $100 for manuscripts 65-105k, and an extra $100 for anything above that.

Cancellation policy: I retain the right to keep deposits upon cancellation of my services for any reason. Once I have been hired and I have been asked to begin performing my services, I retain the right to charge a 30% penalty if the client cancels the contract.
