Add-on services

Keyword Research: $25

If you’re planning to advertise your book via Google Ads, on a website, on social media, or via any other digital platform, you’re going to need the right keywords to include in order to make sure your book is found by the right searchers. I can help! I’ll compile a list of the 25 most popular relevant keywords for you to use in all your digital marketing needs.

*NOTE: I don’t offer these add-on services by themselves. If you’d like to utilize one or more of these, you’ll need to pay for an editing/proofreading bundle as well.

Policies & Promises

Completion Rate

My typical reading rate is 25 pages per week. While this may seem “slow,” this helps ensure that I miss as little as possible and give each and every page the attention it deserves!

Quality Promise

Every piece I edit & proofread will be a paragon of my best abilities, focus, and attention. Every project will receive the very utmost of my care and attention to make sure you're completely satisfied with the result.

Refunds & Cancellations

I do not offer refunds for two reasons: first, because you're paying for my time. This isn't a t-shirt you can just mail back to me for me to resell. Once I've spent the time, it's gone forever. Secondly, I’d much rather work with you to make things right instead of squabbling over a refund!
I also do not accept cancellations once payment is received.

Contact & Communications

The best way to reach me is by email. I do not accept phone calls or text messages to my personal phone.
My email: dimondwrites@gmail.com
I’m happy to offer a Google Meet or Zoom consultation call prior to you making a payment, if you’d like.
I do not respond to or read email messages between the hours of 5:30pm - 9:00am.
I do not respond to or read email messages on Sundays, nor will I ever schedule a consult call with you on a Sunday. I won't even be working on your project on a Sunday. It's the Lord's Day! :)

Pricing, Payments, & Discounts

All prices listed are final, unless you run a non-profit or charity organization.
I accept payments via Zelle, PayPal, or paper check only.
All discounts are one-time-use only.

Content Delivery

Please email me your manuscript file via Google Docs OR Microsoft Word ONLY. I’ll leave my comments and email you back the reviewed file the same way.
- Please note: You need to format your book properly in Google Docs or Microsoft Word before sending me the draft. Please do not download your draft from another site and ask me to convert it - I am not a formatter! :)
I will not make the edits myself, but only suggest them to you so that you can decide which of my pieces of advice you’d like to act on or not. This also allows you to see my thought process and understand why I suggest what I do.
No physical product will be mailed or delivered to you.

Material Use

I would LOVE to post your book’s cover on my site here once you publish! I don’t financially benefit from this site at all, and so it will only serve as free publicity for you. I’ll include a link to wherever your book is available for purchase, to help send customers your way!

Other

I can’t guarantee a standard timeline before taking on a project, because each is unique and different seasons of life come with different levels of busy.
Before I begin editing, I’ll give you my best guestimate for when you can expect me to be done. I’ll also keep you posted along the way! :)
I am not able to work with any company that directly competes with Evolution Finance or WalletHub.com, including:
