Getting Started
Do you need someone to write, edit or translate your text?
Following an initial inquiry, we’ll schedule a call to discuss your project in greater detail, at which time I’ll want to know about
Your needs and expectations;
The type of job — writing, editing or translating;
The anticipated task or combination of tasks – content editing, copyediting, proofreading;
The scope of the job and the length of the text – the number of double spaced pages, number of chapters, etc.;
Your optimal time frame, article submission or thesis submission deadlines to be considered;
Do you have a clear sense of your target audience?
Do you have the journal’s requirements regarding Author Guidelines? I’d be glad to conduct an Internet search to retrieve the instructions;
Is there a list of terms or expressions you could provide to expedite the translation task?
For a writing job: What resources would you like me to use? Will you provide them?
The next step is to confer about our preferred mode of work:
Can we go straight to work, or do we need a trial phase?
How frequently would you like to receive progress reports? Per week? Per chapter?
Will we need to conduct joint work sessions via Skype or phone?
Finally, I’ll send you a price quote or estimate, we’ll set a schedule, and then the work phase can begin.
Good luck to us!
