Editing and Workshop Services
I am offering editing and workshop services to fund my graduate school application and other needs. My USD rates are higher to take into account Paypal conversion, transfer fees, and value difference. Here are the editing services I offer:
Poetry Workshop: Critique and feedback on the craft of your poetry, focusing on the poetic line, sound, metaphor, and structure. This entails a line-by-line annotation and a discussion session via Zoom.
At least ₱4,000 / $90 for up to three (3) poems, one page each poem. Turnaround is two (2) weeks unless otherwise stated. Add-on service of ₱1,000 / $30 if you wish to turn the video discussion into written commentary.
Sensitivity Reading: Critique and feedback regarding sensitive content in the manuscript. This entails a file with organized comments and suggestions and the live commentary of the first read and, if necessary, a discussion session, either through chat or video.
At least ₱4,000 / $90 per short form fiction (up to 5,000 words). Optional add-on service of ₱2,000 / $55 should formal critique become necessary. Turnaround is two (2) weeks unless otherwise stated.
Full Editing: Critique and feedback on the form, structure, and content of the manuscript. This entails a file with organized comments and suggestions and the live commentary of the first read, the trackchanged file of the manuscript, and, if necessary, a discussion session, either through chat or video.
At least ₱7,000 / $160 per short form fiction (up to 5,000 words). Turnaround is two (2) weeks unless otherwise stated.
Payment: 50% must be paid upfront before I begin. The rest will be paid after I have delivered my comments.
If interested, please get in touch with me via message.
I've had roughly ten years of experience in critiquing fiction, poetry, and writing in general: I was an instructor at the University of the Philippines Diliman, where I handled courses on writing, for two years; from 2014 to 2016, I was the workshop committee head of UP Writers Club; aside from having taken up workshop classes in UP Diliman, I was also a fellow for fiction in the 1st IWP Alumni Writers Workshop, 2nd Amelia Lapeña-Bonifacio Writers Workshop, 2nd GlobalGRACE-UP National LGBTQ Writers Workshop, and the 2021 Bread Loaf Writers' Conference.; and I was workshop panelist for the 2022 Malate Writers’ Workshop and 2023 Cordillera Creative Writing Workshop. I've also received prizes from the 2nd Gémino H. Abad Awards for Poetry and for Literary Criticism and the 69th Carlos Palanca Memorial Awards for Literature
