Once editing is done, you'll be sent a version of your manuscript as a Microsoft Word file, with your editor's comments and update suggestions shown. Feel free to apply however many you see fit to a new version of your manuscript. Once you have a new version, you may feel it's finalized, ready for release.

Galdi Media charges $149 for every 10,000 words. This includes all three types of editing - developmental editing, line editing, and copyediting/proofreading. For example, if your manuscript happens to be 50,000 words (10,000 words time 5), you'd pay $149 times 5, or $745. Your manuscript's word count can go up to 5,000 words over the one associated with your price. For instance, a manuscript of 54,282 words would have the same editing cost as one that's 50,000. Keep all your royalties To use Galdi Media's editing service, self-published authors just have to pay the fee based on word count. We do not claim a percentage of your book's royalties, like other companies do, or require you to sign any contracts.
