Fees for Nonfiction writing Projects:

*Note: Price list is based on the project, more than the hourly rate. These are the rates quoted to most magazines, however, if there is extensive research necessary, fees will be higher in proportion to the intensity of the research required. 

Editing Services $20 per hour

Reading and marking up and/or correcting for grammar, correct verbiage usage, style, spelling, etc.

Articles $100 each

This is for an average size article, one that would cover two pages with photos, one page without. Larger articles are billed proportionally. Second printing in "sister" magazines would be billed at one half the rate ($50 or 50%).

Prices by word count:

Articles 800 to 1000 words are $125 each.

Articles 500 to 800 words are $100 each.

Articles 400 to 500 words are $75 each.

Articles 200 to 300 words are $50 each.

Blurbs and Website Content

Combination of hourly and word count rate, dependant on the editing, rewriting or research involved.

Deadlines

Longer deadlines insure submissions of higher quality. A two week minimum is requested (and must be agreed upon ahead of time) -- more time is greatly appreciated.

Rights

Magazines will maintain first rights, both written and electronic, and second print rights, if an article is published in the sister magazine, the writer retains all subsequent rights, and will include the magazine information and date of first publication with each reprint.
