FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

how long have you been an editor?

Screenplay Editing - 12 years

Manuscript Editing - 8 years

WHAT IF MY SCRIPT IS LONGER THAN 120 PAGES?

First, ask yourself, should it be? Don’t forget that each page is a minute on the screen. So, 120 pages = 2 hours. I tend to stay close to this runtime for dramas and 90 pages for comedy. Then again, Avengers: Endgame is just over three hours.

But, whether that’s the length you’re sticking to, or you need help cutting scenes, or are interested in any of the services I offer, just contact me and I’ll send you a quote or point you to the best package for what you’re looking for.

WHAT IF MY BOOK IS LONGER THAN 300 PAGES?

No problem. Just shoot me a note through the contact form or email and let me know the page number or word count and what service you need and I’ll send you a quote.

do you offer payment plans?

You can choose to pay through PayPal at checkout and they provide a payment plan option. I get paid upfront so there’s no delay in getting started on your work, but you can pay over time.

DO YOU OFFER ANY OTHER EDITING SERVICES?

Are you looking for help with a query letter, logline, synopsis, treatment, more specialized concentration, or something else that isn’t listed?

Just use the contact form and let me know what you need and if I can provide the quality and expertise you deserve, I’ll design a package for you. If not, I’m happy to recommend another editor.

will you review my book?

Sure. If I have room in my schedule, I’d love to.

Sorry, no books that I’ve edited. I’m sure I’d be totally biased.

WHY DO YOU SAY all that WEIRD, dumb STUFF ON TWITTER/Cuss so much/eat so much cheese?

Hi. I’m JC. Nice to meet you.
