PROOFREADING AND EDITING SERVICES
If you are a writer, student, a corporation, a business person, or someone whose second language is English, proofreading is a must before submitting your documents. Excellence in written communication allows one to keep their professional appearance, and a first impression is critical.

I accept documents via internet or postal mail. I generally work with Word files. You will received your proofread and edited document either electronically or on a CD. You will also receive the tracked document showing changes, corrections, and comments. If you send a hard paper copy, you will receive the hard copy back with corrections and comments in the margins
.
Editing and proofreading rates:
Editing and proofreading is charged by the page. The average count per page is 250 words. For documents 10 pages or less, turnaround time is 5 business days. Documents 10-500 pages will have a turnaround of 10-15 business days. For rush jobs, there will be an additional charge.
If your document is a PDF file, it will take much longer and cost more; the preferred format is Word (.doc, .docx). If you send a hard copy, there will be an additional fee for return postage on the edited document.
