Example Project

Scope

Amala is looking for a review of her 3,500-word literary analysis paper. She wants to ensure her arguments are presented logically and supported clearly. She’s done a fair bit of academic writing before this, but she’s never had anything professionally edited before. She feels confident taking the direction of the queries without seeing specific rewriting examples, so she opts for a light structural edit.

Estimate

The edit will take approximately 2 business days.

The estimated cost for Amala’s light structural edit of 3,500 words is $154 plus taxes.

Excerpt

The excerpt below shows how Amala’s project moves through the submission, feedback and revision stages.

Feedback is presented in queries (numbered comments on the right-hand side) addressing Amala’s concerns about the presentation of arguments. Amala can ask questions to clarify the queries, but she is responsible for making any changes herself.
