FAQs

Start by writing down what you want the editor to do. Break the work into small steps, like checking for grammar or fixing the flow of sentences. This will help your editor understand what you need.
Ask for examples of their past work. Look for projects similar to yours. You can also ask them to do a small test edit to see how they work.
Work with the editor to decide how long each part of the project will take. Make sure you both agree on deadlines. This way, you know when to expect the finished work.
An agreement should have details like what the editor will do and when they will do it. It should also include how you both will handle any changes. This will help keep the project on track.
Share your vision for the project with the editor. Explain what you hope to achieve with their help. This will keep you both on the same page.
Decide on the best way to talk, like through emails or video calls. Set a schedule for regular updates to talk about what’s been done. This keeps communication clear and open.
Be clear and kind when giving feedback. Talk about what you like and what needs to change. This helps your editor understand and improve the work.
Plan key dates like when the first draft is due or when revisions should be done. This helps you see progress and plan ahead. Milestones keep everyone focused.
Look over the finished work carefully. Compare it with your goals and initial instructions. If something isn’t right, talk with the editor about making changes.
Make sure all files are easy to read and in the right format. Share any notes or guides that can help the editor understand your work. This makes it easier for them to start right away.
