I can charge a job by the hour, day or word count, but generally, an overall job rate can be quoted upon seeing the proof, based on the time it would take to carry out the work and the extent of edits I think the material needs.
HOURLY RATES ARE AS FOLLOWS:
Light sub-editing, ie spelling, grammar, punctuation, tidying up and fact-checking names, etc – €30 per hour.
Rewriting text or writing copy from scratch – €40-45 per hour, depending on the subject matter.
These prices are a guideline. Once I see the work, I can offer a suitable figure in advance for the overall job to suit your deadline and budget.
