Editing Service
Your manuscript is only half done when you finish writing it. You need the eyes and mind of a skilled editor to enhance the quality of your book. Literary GPS specializes in developmental/content editing, but we feature other forms, such as copy/line editing, proofreading, and beta reading.
Edits start at $150 for word counts under 25,000 words or less. Literary GPS edits at a $.006 rate per word. If you book this service for a copy/line edit, you will also receive a developmental edit; however, if you only book a developmental edit, you will ONLY receive a developmental edit. Developmental edits are separately priced and start a $10 per 1,000 words.
Our editing process is as follows:
1. You must book a consultation to be given a quote and an assessment of your manuscript to assess excessive damages. *price may vary beyond the starting rate depending on your assessment. Your quote will be given BEFORE editing services are booked*
2. You'll receive your quote, you'll sign a terms of service agreement laying out the terms of the service, and you can either pay a 55 % deposit or in full. If you pay a deposit, the remaining balance will be due 72 hours before the tentative return date.
3. Editing, depending on the length of the project, can take up to two months. Your tentative return date will be outlined in the terms of the service agreement. You cannot pay a rush fee on edits. If you have a deadline in mind, please include it in the consultation. Otherwise, you will be given a due date based on my practices and schedule. I will do my best to accommodate you, but if I cannot, I will refer you to someone of equal or greater caliber.
4. Literary GPS doesn't offer sample edits. We do, however, have references, and we are more than willing to share them or you can check out our Testimonial page.
5. When booking a consultation for editing services, the consultation fee automatically comes off the total price of the editing service IF you book.
