Today is the day.
Today I have launched my new online business, All-read-E. I am now offering manuscript assessment, copy editing
and proofreading at what I hope are affordable prices, particularly for
self-publishing and independent authors. I have tried to set the prices at
rates that people can afford, but which will also allow me to make enough to
live on. Those who have been reading my blogs will know that I have been
reading and reviewing self-published books. Many times I find them full of
basic grammatical and spelling errors. Others need work at a slightly higher
level, in that sentences, paragraphs and even chapters are not well organised.
Finally, for some writers, the plot and character development needs
considerable work. Many of these books have already (apparently) been subjected
to editing and proofreading. If this is so, I can only say that they have
failed terribly at their job. I can do a better job than that, and for
considerably less money.
What I am offering
with All-read-E are services that I
would like to be able to access myself. I have recently submitted a manuscript
to someone else for an assessment. They have charged me AUD 430 for this
service, for a manuscript of 51,393 words. I would charge approximately AUD 231
for the same service. Furthermore, I submitted my manuscript for assessment in
October last year, and it is likely to be another two months before I hear
back. I guarantee a much faster response time than this.
This is a blatantly
self-promotional post. I want people to use my services. But I am also offering
a very good deal for you, if you are in need of services like this. So please
check out my new web page, detailing the services that I offer, and the pricing
regime.
Helping you to become the great writer you already are
