What I Need from You

Would you like my help with your project? My policy is to "underpromise and overdeliver." What is your deadline? I will develop a timeline to keep everyone happy. If I agree to complete your project in two days, I won't take five. If I can't complete your project in the time you desire, I'll be honest about it. I won't make promises I can't keep. The following are questions that will help me help you:

How much text? What is the word count? How many pages? How many chapters? Please e-mail me with the answers to these questions and an electronic sample.

Standard Rates

My rates are low within the scale of what Christian editors typically charge. Check the industry standard here and here. My priority is to support my family, not to get rich. I'm also burdened to assist ministries that are on a tight budget. Even if you have reservations about my fees, let's talk about your project and see what God has in mind.

Hourly: $20-$30

Flat Fee for Book Editing: $2,500-$5,500
This fee is determined based on an evaluation of the page count (project scope), the deadline (time expectations), and the condition of your material (level of work required). In other words, these are three variables I need to know before I can accurately project a price.

Audio Transcriptions from MP3:
