PLS Editing Services

Paula Sarson, Editor and Proprietor

Rates

  • Rates
    How much will the requested work cost? The simplest answer is that rates vary among projects but are based on specific criteria. I calculate project fees on an hourly basis; however, flat fees can be negotiated to accommodate budgets and goals. Depending upon the duration of a project, a 25 percent deposit may be required at the outset with the balance due upon delivery of the completed work. Estimates are tailored according to the needs of each project.

  • Estimates
    An estimate serves two purposes: it offers you, the client, a good sense of the investment involved and it helps define the terms of work. The estimate is a combination of objective math and subjective assessment. Generally, estimates hold fast unless the scope of work changes after the editing begins.
    Criteria for estimates include:
    – client goals and budget
    – word count
    – level of editing requested and rounds of editing required
    – general quality of the writing
    – turnaround time
    – document complexity (images and captions, lists, tables, graphs, diagrams, footnotes, bibliography or endnotes, index)
    – developing or contributing to a style sheet
    – liaising with author(s) (communications via phone, meetings, email)

When I started my business of publishing books, I was directed to Paula. It was the best suggestion I could have received. She helped me find my writer’s voice for all of my business publications; then she efficiently helped to clarify my business team games text; and—our most ambitious project yet—she has helped to build a book with one hundred voices. In each case, she seamlessly and professionally contributed to tools for clients and readers around the world. I have only one editor: Paula.
