algHello, Internet! It is October, my favorite month of the year. It's coldish, the air is crisp, and it rains a lot. Last night we had the first fire of the year in my dad's living room! Oh fall, beautiful fall, wonderful fall!
With fall also comes my annual October discount! Typically it is 10% - 20% off any of my services.
This year it is 25% off any contract for polishing we sign this month, as long as the contract is for 2010.
(Sometimes people like to reserve services far in advance; that is cool! But in that case, the 25% discount only applies to the deposit paid before the end of 2010, not the balance payment. However, if you plan to send me the manuscript for polishing before the end of 2010, that counts. So 25% that whole thing, even if I am not sending you the edited version of the manuscript until 2011.)
I only have five polishing slots left for the rest of the year, though, so there's a cap on this offer. First come, first serve and all of that.
The discount is only for polishing. I've specifically designed my polishing service as a help for authors who are preparing to send their manuscript out to agents or publishing houses, or who are going to be self-publishing. It includes everything you need for a polished (see what I did there?), professional manuscript: fixing typos, spelling errors, punctuation errors, internal consistency problems, misused words, and grammatical errors. Additionally, I reformat the manuscript into standard format for submission.
I do this service in MS Word, using the "comments" and "track changes" feature, for easy viewing of corrections. It typically costs between one and two cents per word.
I should also note that this can't be used in combination. So if you are a teacher in a teacher's union or signing the contract as the legal guardian for a client who is under 18, the 10% discount I usually give can't be combined with this 25% discount. You've got to pick one or the other.
As always, you're welcome to ask any questions you have in the comments, or email me at anna@annagenoese.com.
