My Services

These services are for more polished drafts. I can:

• proofread the draft, correcting spelling, grammatical and formatting errors
• suggest language edits to improve the style and make the draft clearer
• review the draft and leave feedback on the content: does the argument make sense? Will your non-expert readers understand? Are there any obvious objections you haven’t addressed? What might make the draft more engaging?

Prices

• basic proofreading: £0.01 per word
• copyediting and review: £0.02-£0.04 per word. The price depends on how intensive the edits are and how complex the subject matter is. This also includes proofreading.

£50 is the minimum price for any of these services (regardless of word count).

£0.01-£0.04/word

I will substantively rewrite a rough draft, preserving your meaning but rephrasing and restructuring the piece to make it clearer and more engaging.

£0.06/word

I spend up to an hour correcting obvious errors, suggesting priority edits, and giving my overall impressions on the content. Appropriate if you just want someone to take a quick look.

Get in touch to discuss.

£40

I offer writing and editing guidance over calls.

I’ve thought a lot about what makes writing good. I can help you with everything from the nuts and bolts of sentence structure, to writer’s block, to the best way to convey your arguments.

£40/hour

I can help you write things even if you haven’t written a draft yet. This could involve some combination of:

• coaching and collaboration calls
• writing drafts
• editing rough drafts/notes

Pricing

• £0.12/word for producing content from scratch

• £0.06/word for substantive editing of rough drafts

• £0.02-£0.04/word for copyediting

• £40/hour for calls, additional research, and miscellaneous

Bespoke prices

Clients have hired me to do things that are related to writing and editing but don’t fall into the categories above: for example, developing resources, desk research, and conceptual research collaboration. If you’re interested in hiring me for something like this, get in touch and I’ll propose a bespoke price.
