Description
Experience Level: Entry
Hello all,
I have hired a few editors on here for some shorts that I have written, but now I am facing the prospect of getting my big novel looked at. It currently stands at 96k words, which I realise is big and to get it done in one go is something I cannot afford. I am determined to power through, however; so I was thinking about breaking it up into more manageable chunks (either 3x 32k or 4 x 24k). That way it is easier for me financially is all.
I was hoping to put a feeler out there to see how much this would cost. Obviously, it is better for consistency if I have the same editor work on the entire novel, so there is the plus of this being a guaranteed 3/4 jobs, but yeah I just wanted to get a gist of who is out there and what the costs will be.

Hi James,
Would it be possible to get a look at a sample, to judge what level of editing might be required?
Thanks,
Kevin -
