How I work with clients
In the beginning, I may ask you a lot of questions so I can zero in on the message you want to send out to readers. To make sure we see eye-to-eye about messaging as well as other project details like word count, deadline and fees, I will always send you a project proposal.
For long projects, I’ll send you a rough outline of the main points and list of possible sources (if required) to make sure I’m on the right track. Once you approve or adjust the outline, I’ll start researching and writing. Before sending in the first draft, I will check facts and run quotes by sources. I generally include two rounds of revisions.
Initial phone calls/consultations are free, as are short phone calls or emails related to the project. Fees depend on the specific details of the project. I usually charge flat rates or by the word.
