The writer-editor relationship begins when you submit a sample (representative and unedited) of your writing to me as a Word document via email to joanna@editoratwork.com.

I will do a free sample edit and return the document to you with my recommended changes, corrections and comments (using Track Changes in Word). This process accomplishes three things: it allows me to assess the kind and level of editing necessary; it shows you exactly what I do so you can decide if you want to move forward; and it forms the basis on which I calculate my fee.
