Editorial Rates Changing Starting January 2022

​​On January 1, 2022, Sarah Hawkins Editorial Studio's rates will change to the following:

Line Editing: $0.015USD/word
Copyediting: $0.010USD/word
Proofreading: $0.0075USD/word

The rates change is a return to the original rates I set when I opened in 2020. ​Due to personal circumstances and professional goals, I was able and happy to temporarily lower my rates in 2021.

The rates change does not affect any 2022 edit scheduled prior to January 1, 2022. Therefore, if you schedule your edit in 2021, the 2021 rates will apply.

The new rates are still below the median editorial rates as provided by the Editorial Freelancers Association. I will always aim to provide editing at an affordable rate for indie authors, and I am looking for ways to assist indie authors in saving for their investment in editing.
