Non-fiction Editing & Proofreading
Reach your audience with clear, elevated and effective writing.

Thoughtful

Your writing and hard work deserve respect! That’s why I edit and proofread with the aim of preserving your intentions so it’s your voice that reaches your audience.
Informed

You want the best for your project and your readers. Working with me puts you in the safe hands of a knowledgeable editor who can elevate your words with even the lightest touch.
Supportive

You thrive when you have the right support. I take the time to understand your heart and your values so I can help you achieve the success you’re striving for.
“Liz continually amazes me with her ability to understand topics in my specialist field beyond the depths of her training, so much so that she can interpret, clarify and restructure information with a fresh, accurate and succinct perspective. Liz is a pleasure to work with.”

SERVICES
I offer copyediting and proofreading services for non-fiction writers, small businesses and organisations.



“Working with Liz has been magical and transformative for both me and my business. She has helped me to clarify the messages I write so what my clients and audience receive is clear and exactly as I intended.
She has a special ability to polish my work while preserving my unique voice and intentions, and she can turn a piece of my writing into a masterpiece that honours me and the essence of what I wrote.
She’s also been helping and inspiring me to improve my writing and storytelling skills so I can share more about who I am in a way that is authentically me.
I wholeheartedly recommend having Liz on your team to anyone looking for extra support with their content and more clarity in what they deliver to their audience.”

HOW MUCH DO EDITING & PROOFREADING COST?
I offer three types of service, two of which are fixed-rate plans or packages. All rates are in Australian dollars (AU$).
A small business content package will set you back between AU$65 and AU$85, depending on the type of content and the level of editing you require.
If you choose an Editor on Demand plan, you’ll pay between AU$435 and AU$750, depending on the number of hours of support you’d like from me over a three-month period.
For copyediting and proofreading of non-fiction projects, I charge project fees that I determine after a chat with you about your project and your needs. This is so you know from the start how much the job will cost to complete. However, if your project is more suited to a quote based on a per-word rate, I’m happy to discuss this with you.
I may ask to see a sample of your work, and if you need help with a longer project, we can discuss a sample copyedit or proofread so you can feel confident that I’m the right professional for you.
For an idea of what quality copyediting and proofreading cost before you take the next step, check these resources from the CIEP and IPEd.
