Rates – Authenticity Reading

All prices are in USD, and payments are done through PayPal.

Fiction

$75 for works up to 1000 words + $0.008 per word after the first 1000.

      Example: A novel with 50,000 words is $75 (first 1000 words) PLUS $392 (0.008 x 49,000) = $467

However, this is for the whole book. If you provide just the sections that are relevant, with a little context, I can read only those. It’s cheaper, but there are many benefits to having me read the whole book.

What’s included:

  • one pass with comments in the manuscript (I won’t edit directly)
  • a sheet with feedback and recommendations on top of the comments I made in the manuscript

Nonfiction

$85 for works up to 1000 words + $0.01 per word after the first 1000

      Example: A textbook with 30,000 words is $85 (first 1000 words) PLUS $290 (0.01 x 29,000) = $375

Turnaround

For full-length novels, I generally say three weeks. However, it really depends on how much work there needs to be done, the writing style, etc. I can accommodate tighter deadlines but may have to charge an extra “rush” fee of $50-100. For works less than 5000 and excerpts/single chapters, I can generally get done in a few days, depending on my workload.

Combine Authenticity Read & Proofreading

If you’d like to combine an authenticity read with my proofreading services, a 25% discount will be applied.

Example: A 50,000-word novel will cost $467 for an authenticity read PLUS $565 for proofreading MINUS 25% = $774
