Jojo's Red Pen

I have several editing service options available so that you can customise the level of detail I go into, depending on the type of project you have and the extent of work that is needed. You can choose one of the following packages, and then calculate a quote using the handy calculator at the bottom of the page.

Note that prices are all in $NZ.
