Frequently Asked Questions

When will my edit be started?

​

Ann's schedule is subject to change, and different times of the year can be busier than others, but normally she will be able to start your edit/critique a few weeks from the time your agreement is made.

​

How long will it take to be completed?

​

The edit or critique is usually completed about two weeks after the start date.

​

What is the payment policy?

​

Payments are made in advance, and usually Ann splits the overall cost into three payments.  She accepts personal checks, cashier's or certified checks, MC/Visa, and Zelle payments.

​

Will I sign a contract?

​

You will be asked to sign a basic service agreement.

​

What can I expect once the editing process has begun?

​

Ann will send an update about halfway through the edit, but she is happy to send updates more often at the client's request.

​

What happens after the edit?

 

For all developmental edits and critiques, Ann will reread the parts of the book that a client has significantly changed after the edit has been completed.  She asks authors to highlight new and/or changed areas as they revise.  If a client wants a reread of the entire piece after their revision is complete, there is a charge, but it is less than the cost of the first edit.
