NOTE: these rates are not set in stone and are only an average for this editor. The actual rate applicable to your document will depend on the depth of the edit, the quality of the writing, the topic matter, the proximity of the deadline, the length of the document and several other factors.
For the past 15 years, I have worked as a full-time project manager and as a freelance copy/developmental editor, proofreader, and project manager for several leading publishing companies, including Random House, Key Curriculum Press, and McGraw-Hill. My experience includes work with college-level social science books, nonfiction niche publications, high school and college math and science textbooks and their ancillaries, as well as corporate newsletters, brochures, Web sites, and business plans. In addition to having an excellent knowledge of grammar and a variety of style manuals, I am also able to edit HTML content and coding to ensure accurate and consistent Web sites. I am continually expanding my knowledge of computer services and am now able to use a digital mouse pen to mark up Adobe Acrobat files as a proofreader and copyeditor.
