We charge £1000 a month as a minimum service retainer. This will involve miscellaneous writing work, e-mails on your behalf to relevant agencies and publishers, phone call consultations, and time for 1–1 meet-ups online or in person. This service is ideal for people whose projects are complete and do not wish to pay the day rate for continued work.
On some projects, there is the opportunity to negotiate prices via a royalty share of potential profits.
New customers must be prepared to pay in advance for a day, week, or month’s work after any meeting or consultation.
