HOW DOES THIS WORK? HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?
I often see things online, and I think, wait, how much will that cost. I get so caught up in thinking about the money that I wind up walking away from opportunities. So let me spell out my rates right here:
$4 a page (double spaced, 12 point font, one inch margins) for short stories. $60 an hour for phone calls or Skype sessions.
$3 a page for novels (double spaced, 12 point font, one inch margins), plus a $350 fee for a one hour phone call and summary of feedback/revision plan/reading list generation
Here's how it works:
You email me the work. I will then read it, make comments using track changes, and write a summary letter to you. This can be followed up with a phone call or Skype session. I will read anything you want reviewed. Each time I look at something, even a revision, the same fees above apply. I will provide you with upfront, honest feedback directed at helping you to achieve your writing goals. This isn't about fitting you into a mold; this about helping you to tackle writing in the way you want, to the best of your ability.
Please let me know if you are interested in scheduling a writing mentoring session; email me at brandi.granett@gmail.com
