How it works...

Initial Enquiry

You can contact me at any time to discuss your project or request a quote.

To provide an accurate estimate, I will usually ask for:

  • A sample or full draft of your document

  • Your deadline

  • The type of editing you believe you need

  • Any relevant style guides, institutional requirements, or formatting expectations

Assessment and Quote

Once I have reviewed your material, I will provide:

  • A bespoke, no-obligation quote

  • A clear timeline for the work

  • A brief explanation of the service type required

  • Confirmation of what is included in the fee

  • Quotes are based on word count, complexity, turnaround time, and the level of editing required.

Booking

If you choose to proceed:

  • I will confirm the project in writing

  • We will agree on deadlines, scope, and delivery format

  • For larger projects, I may
    request a small deposit to
    secure your booking.

Working on the document

I work using tracked changes and comments in Word, ensuring full transparency over every edit. Your document will be reviewed according to your chosen service level:

  • Proofreading: focuses on accuracy and final presentation

  • Copyediting: improves clarity, readability, and consistency

  • Structural/line editing: supports argumentation, organisation, and depth
