The deposit is paid after I have agreed to take on your project, and you have been given a detailed quote and turnaround estimate and have decided to continue. If you complete your project with me, the deposit goes towards paying for my services.
Before starting your project, I require ½ of the quoted price paid via PayPal or EFT, and the remaining ½ after the project has been completed.
I am willing to discuss payment plans.
Refunds
As mentioned, the deposit to secure a place in my work schedule is non-refundable.
Before all projects are begun, you will receive an e-mail notifying you that your project has been started, along with a PayPal invoice for ½ of the quoted price for your project. Before receiving this e-mail, authors are entitled to a full refund, minus the deposit and PayPal fees.
After the notification e-mail, refunds will only be given for the words that have not been edited. In other words, you will pay for what has been read/edited, which will be sent to you, and be refunded the rest of the money, minus the deposit and PayPal fees.
