Standard Freelance Editorial Agreement




The Standard Freelance Editorial Agreement was created in 1985 (updated 1999) by the Editor's Association of Canada as a template for describing the nature and terms of a work agreement between an Editor and a Client. The Agreement covers all aspects of the collaboration including and not limited to: editorial responsibilities, deadlines, fees and reimbursements and limitations of liability. The attachment, Schedule A describes in detail different types of editorial activities the Editor and Client agree upon and the work to be done.
The completed and signed form is a legally binding document.

The services included in each individual Agreement are customized to suit the job at hand and signing the Agreement is a mandatory step in requesting and providing Editorial Services

Here is the link to the Agreement.





A master of her craft, the Editor has helped me as a first time author, refine my book and by the time she was done with my manuscript, it was better than I could have imagined. With infinite patience and knowledge, she guided me through the maze of making sense of my own work, having the reader in mind. Like many others, I mistakenly believed that editing was about correcting grammar and punctuation and I was astonished  to see the depth of her analysis, the way she clarified every paragraph in context bringing the book together into a cohesive body of writing. The book will soon be in print and I am forever grateful. Thank you.

"Thank you for making me a better writer."

"LIFE-A Novel" was born out of a deep desire to share the best of my life journey with the world. I never thought there would be any need for editing but my publisher recommended it. What could an editor possibly do for my book? That was until I met this remarkable Lady of letters who made sense of ...myself and gave my book a life. With subtle humor and outstanding professionalism, the Editor ...."

"The Editor was highly professional, precise and delivered my edited PhD dissertation in record time. I was concerned about my topic being too specific, too technical but there was nothing to worry about. She addressed in minute detail all aspects of editing my work and the result was incredible. I would highly recommend." 

                                                      Jennifer Klaren, UCLA, PhD

"Amazing results. Would definitely use again. Professional and expert in any scholarly subject matter (in this case, analyzing  mental overload on pilots in training). The Editor went above and beyond to get the job done. I am extremely happy with the results and would recommend to anyone that wants high standard academic work edited professionally and in a timely manner. Thank you very much. " 

                                                      R. Bishop, Queensland U, 2014           

"Anyone involved in highly scholarly topic, academic research and writing  needs an equally competent Academic Editor.  The [Editor] is exactly that professional every academic wishes to have on their team. With a "Sherlock" mind she clears obscure passages and brings back order from chaos, so to speak. Exceptional work and contribution."

                                                       N. Kaminsky, Stanford U,  2014                                                                 
“The EDITOR did an extremely professional job of academic editing on a long PhD dissertation draft. The feedback was very constructive and just the right amount. Particularly helpful with correcting the overall structure and organization of the paper, eliminating superfluous passages, at all times respecting the academic format and the specific departmental requirements. I would highly recommend this academic editor to everyone determined to improve their writing.” J.K. PhD Dissertation UCSD, 2014
