| frantic | Posted – 9/30/2007 8:55:52 AM | show profile Can anyone give me a ballpark of standard pay to do a first edit--proofreading and light editing-- of a fiction manuscript, just to get it ready to shop around to agents? I have a friend looking to hire someone for this and is asking me what I think it will cost... And I haven't a clue. Would it be by the page? |
