Editing and Writing

(Other terms may be negotiated if appropriate)

These services include editing existing material and writing new material using your notes and guidelines. This means making textual adjustments and creating text for readability, flow, consistency, cohesiveness, and other essential aspects of written communication, including spelling and grammar.

Material can be tailored for a target audience (for example a general audience or one with background in the subject) and for different levels of reading and comprehension skills. There is a flat fee of $40 to assess material for acceptance. This may be waived if the situation warrants. After the job has begun, time spent conferring about details is charged at the normal rate. Rates may be discounted for large jobs.

Ordinary Material

Rate = $35/hr.

Advanced, Highly Specialized or Technical Material

Rate = $50/hr


Graphic & Page Design
Page Top

(Other terms, such as a flat fee, may be negotiated if appropriate)

These services include creating graphic designs such as logos and artwork for business cards, brochures, etc., as well as 'typesetting', or layout of material for the final product. Output can be at any level of the publication process, i.e., from files on disc to laser-printer proof to final product. I'm not a printing house, but use local businesses to job finished work. The categories below cannot always be neatly separated. For example, page design and page layout often overlap quite a bit.

Graphic Design
This means designing such things as logos, mastheads for publications, artwork for use in publications, and more. Charges are flexible so that the bill takes into account what can reasonably be charged for a given job, and not just the time invested. For very demanding or fussy situations, charges for intermediate proofing may be added. High resolution proofing (above 1200 dpi) will be extra in any case.

Usual Rate: $40/hr

Page Design
This means selecting and determining the arrangement of page elements in a cohesive design theme. Charges are flexible so that the bill takes into account what can reasonably be charged for a given job, and not just the time invested. There may be additoinal charges for intermediate proofing if required. High resolution proofing (above 1200 dpi) will be extra in any case.

Usual Rate: $40/hr

Page Layout
This means following a prescribed design or format to arrange page elements for publishing. It does not include the DESIGN of the layout. Extensive writing (creating copy, not just setting it) and editing will be additional, at the rates given under Editing and Writing, above. Level of complexity depends on features such as text flowing around graphics, captions, sidebars, text effects, and so on.

Simple Material = $25/page

Complex Material = $45/page
