Make Payment
The first half hour is free with no obligation. The manuscript will be returned to the author after 30 minutes of editing time. The client can then decide to continue to use the service for an additional 30, 60, 90, or 120 minutes and pay in advance for that amount of time ($20, $40, $60, or $80 US). Unless prior arrangement is made, the manuscript will not be edited for more than two hours at a time before it is returned to the client for review. The process of editing and review can be repeated through as many iterations as the client wishes.
Turnaround time is generally less than 48 hours for manuscripts received between 8 a.m. Monday and 8 a.m. Friday Eastern Standard Time. However, this timeframe is not guaranteed. If you have a deadline to meet, I will try to work with you to meet this deadline. You must inform me of your deadline in your initial e-mail. For obvious reasons I can accept only a limited number of clients working against short deadlines.
It is most convenient for manuscripts to be submitted as attachments in Microsoft Word (.doc). If you do not have access to Microsoft Word, the text can be included in the body of the e-mail.
Do not submit payment until the manuscript has been returned to you after editing. No refunds can be made.
