A quick turn-around at a reasonable rate:

• $75 for the first hour, payable in advance with cash, check, or credit card. Credit cards are accepted via Square for the deposit only at this time. $40/hour after the first hour, billed upon completion of the project.
• No charge for minimal changes due to typing errors or color corrections from proof copy.
• Extensive additions will be charged at my regular hourly rate.

What I will provide:

I will provide a digital or hard copy print for you to proof for errors and changes. The proof is not intended for final printing. I cannot provide final print services, but will prepare everything appropriately for whatever printing service you will ultimately use, whether it is your home or office copier, a copying service, or professional printer. I strongly urge you to take a look at the final draft before printing. I am also happy to consult with you on paper choices for your final product.

File preferences:

Although I do have scanning equipment, photo files work best if they are an original digital (email attachment, on CD or flash drive) at 300 dpi.  Text can be emailed as a MS Word document attachment—don’t put information for your publication in the body of the email.  Text placed in the body of an email often develops “formatting issues” when pasted into a document—just part of that technological magic we so depend on!

For most publications, less is more—i.e., don’t be too wordy.  I have excellent editing and re-writing skills and can take your basic information and give it the voice you are looking for.  I have an extensive collection of fonts, but if you have a specific preference you may need to provide me with the font file.

If you are unsure of what you need to provide, give me a call at 360-981-1838 or email me and I’ll talk you through it.
