Hi folks, I am now in a position to take on more projects through my business.
I'm in the process of completing training in both editing and proofreading, so while I can offer testimonials from authors I've already helped, until I can provide proof that my work meets industry standards I'm offering discounted prices.
As I'm based in the UK, I will be reading your work to check for use of UK English unless you specify otherwise (I can cope with center, endeavor etc, just warn me you want US spellings).
My rates are £2 per 1000 words for pure proofreading - checking for spelling/word errors, punctuation and grammar - and £3 per 1000 words for editing as well - this means helping out with awkward wording and pointing out issues. These are way lower than normal industry rates, and just as a special offer for goodreads people, so get them while they last!
If you're not sure what level of editing you need, I will of course offer a sample edit (5000 words) to check we can work well together in making your novel the best it can be, and to work out what is needed.
I'm still willing to take on beta reading projects - I've been offering particularly on non-fiction projects, or those that are outside mainstream, but I also do fiction work.
I offer a paid beta reading service too - for £25 you get express service and 25% discount on your final proofread. I will do free beta reads, but just be aware that paid work has to take priority and so while I'll do your read as quickly as I can, it MAY not be as fast as the paid service.
Contact me on lin@coinlea.co.uk, or visit my website at www.coinlea.co.uk to read more about the service and the testimonials - just remember that if you mention goodreads you'll get further discount from the prices quoted on there.
