Prices are based on the minimum rates suggested by the Chartered Institute of Editing and Proofreading (CIEP), the UK's foremost body promoting excellence in English language editing.

 

​

Proofreading services start at £11 per 1,000 words. A free sample edit allows me to calculate a fee for each  project.

​

​

​​This service is most suited to theses, dissertations and business reports as it includes proofreading and formatting and starts at £18 per 1,000 words.

​

​

​I offer two copyediting packages. Both include a style sheet and an editorial report plus a 'clean' copy and a copy displaying the suggested amendments.

​​​

Option 1

One round of editing (comprising two passes), your amended version not checked. From £16 per 1,000 words.

​​​

Optional follow-up review, limited to checking for new or missed errors and maintaining consistency following your revisions post-copyedit. Must be requested within 30 days of completion of a copyedit. Charged at £35 per hour.

 

​​Option 2

Ten thousand words of your document are copyedited so that you can apply the principles to the remainder of your document. Flat fee of £350.

​

For all of the above, you can specify your preferred style guide. I work with the Chicago Manual of Style, New Hart's Rules (The Oxford Style Guide), and/or you can provide your own house style guide.​​​​​
