Booking Projects
I’m currently booked solid for until mid-October with the exception of customizing pre-made covers. I can potentially take very small projects (formatting, social media banners, cover wrap add-on) from established clients with the understanding turn around time might be up to two weeks.
2019 editing booking notice: I’m booked from January through July now, with projects tentatively booked September and October, and I’m not available in August. Usually I get booked a few months in advance there. Shorter works (<50K) can sometimes be squeezed in.
2020 editing booking notice: I’m booked in January, February, April, May, June, and October.
(Note: you can book at any time. But if I’m booked solid, that means I can’t start your project until I’m done others.)
For large-scale projects, please book well in advance if possible. I only have 1-2 editing slots and 1 website slot open a month and I won’t pencil anyone into my schedule without a down payment first. It messes with my finances to pencil someone in and then have them not deliver the project; please book only when serious.
If you want something done sooner than the turn around times I project, you can inquire about a rush charge, which will vary depending on the project.
Current Email Queue
Most email I’m getting to within twenty-four hours right now, but two to three business days can happen on busy work days.
Out of the Office Days
Normally I work Monday – Friday from 11am – 6pm EST, with the exception of Canadian holidays and the following days:
- June 23 – July 5 (currently fighting strep throat, my work hours are sporadic)

- Oct 17 & 18 (death in the family)
Some inquiries that come in Thursdays/Fridays might not be responded to until Monday or Tuesday. I do not check or answer email on weekends. You can usually for any major availability updates at my Facebook page.
I am always unavailable weekends and Canadian holidays. Inquiries from clients go directly to my “work” folder and are not seen by me until my usual office hours. Thank you for your patience!
