Getting in touch . . .
For more information about any of my services, please feel free to email me at info(at)perfectlywrite.co.uk. I'm always happy to provide no obligation quotes, carry out sample edits, or simply discuss your project and editorial needs.
If you would like a quote for your project . . .
For writing projects, please provide as much information as you can, including anticipated length of book, audience, style and source material it will be based upon.
For book critiquing, development editing, copy-editing or proofreading quotes, please let me know the total word count of your document, and give me an idea of what level of service you'd like. Please also send the first 5,000 words of your document, so that I can assess how much work is required.
If you would like a free sample copy-edit or proofread of your material, please send me the first 1,000 words.
The project quote
Once you have supplied me with details of the project, if I am available to take on the work and you wish to proceed then I will issue you with a formal project quote. This quote will explain:
The exact nature of the service I'll provide: I will detail the type and degree of service (whether proofreading, editing, book critiquing, mentoring or writing), including any limitations or areas for special consideration.
The deadline for the project: This depends on the size of the project. I always set a deadline I know I can meet, but if possible I do try to return work faster.
The project fee and payment terms: Each project is different, and my costing is based on the length of the material, the timescale and the level of service required. My payment terms are 14 days, and I accept payment by cheque or direct transfer into my account.
If you're happy with the project quote, I'll then ask you to sign and return the form to me, as acceptance of the project terms and also as acceptance of my general terms and conditions of work.
