Poetry & Prose Manuscript Consultations with Danniel Schoonebeek
Poetry & Prose Manuscript Consultations with Danniel Schoonebeek
Poetry
I’ll work closely with authors on every aspect of the editorial process, including line edits, ordering, and revision, as well as comprehensive notes and feedback via email and Zoom, if desired. Poetry manuscripts up to 75 pages are charged at a flat fee of $650, though I’m happy to consider sliding scale offers as needed, and especially during global pandemics. Poetry manuscripts above 75 pages are subject to a no-fee consultation to gauge the scope of the project and the general state of the manuscript, with a quote provided afterward.
Prose
I’ll work closely with novelists and nonfiction writers on every aspect of the editorial process, including line edits, through-lines, plot mechanics, dialogue, and revision, as well as comprehensive notes and feedback via email and Zoom, if desired. Prose manuscripts are charged at $0.20 per word, though I’m happy to consider sliding scale offers as needed, and especially during global pandemics. I’m also available to provide a no-fee consultation to gauge the scope of the project and the general state of the manuscript prior to beginning work.
Note: payment is for initial down payment fee; additional fees to be determined and invoiced separately.
Danniel Schoonebeek’s most recent collection of poetry is Trébuchet (University of Georgia Press, 2016), a 2015 National Poetry Series selection. He is also the author of American Barricade (YesYes Books, 2014), which was named one of the year’s ten standout debuts by Poets & Writers and called “a groundbreaking first book that stands to influence its author’s generation” by Boston Review. A recipient of a 2015 Ruth Lilly and Dorothy Sargent Rosenberg Poetry Fellowship from Poetry Foundation, recent work appears in Poetry, The New Yorker, American Poetry Review, and elsewhere.
