Affordable Manuscript Assessments
This is the "light" site of Affordable Manuscript Assessments. It's a good first port of call for new clients.
- A list of what services we offer including costs.
- Clear instructions for accessing services.
- A list of coded jobs and their status.
We offer manuscript assessment at the following rates. $26.00 for the first 5000 words or part thereof. Any picture book text or short piece under 5000 words will be $26.00 unless it is longer than 600 words and is in rhyme, in which case it may be $36.00, depending on how much work I need to do to fix the scansion.
$16.00 for each 9000 words or part thereof after that.
We offer editing at the following rates.
Tier One (for jobs that are in good condition)
$26.00 for the first 3000 words or part thereof (unless as above- it's a long rhyming text).
$16.00 for each 3500 words following.
Combo; assessment + editing costs the same as editing plus $16.
For more information see Here
Proofreading or Beta reading same cost as assessment.
Tier Two (for jobs with systemic problems. These include random tense changes throughout, and/or severe spelling and sentence structure problems in which at least half the sentences on any given page need to be changed.)
$40.00 for the first 3000 words or part thereof.
$25.00 for each 3500 words following.
Unsure whether your job is Tier One or Tier Two? Send me five pages for analysis.
Instructions
Send your manuscript as a Word attachment. Do NOT send PDFs or Pages docs.
Set up the manuscript as follows.
TNR 12, double spaced.
If fiction, use indented paragraphs with NO space underneath.
Send the attachment to affatheeditor @ gmail.com (close up the gaps) with a header stating what you want; query, edit, assessment or combo. OR to sallybyname @ gmail.com
In the body of the email, tell me who you are, and what service you need. I will send you a receipt of job with a code which you can follow on this site. When the job is done, you will receive an invoice.
Existing Jobs and Progress
The jobs below are logged into the system. Match the code you were given in your receipt email to the note on your job. Once done, it will go blue and say INVOICED. Once paid, it will go red and say PAID.
