Payment Methods

I accept payments by Bank Deposit (Australian customers), Credit Card and PAYPAL. Credit card and PAYPAL payments incur a processing fee of 3%.

An official invoice/receipt that displays my Australian Business Number (ABN) and trading address is issued for every job.

Multi-Currency Payments

Currency conversion tables on this website are updated every 30 minutes and should be considered a guide only.

I do not charge additional fees for currency conversion.

Ownership and Copyright

Full ownership (and copyright) of the completed writing transfers to the client upon full payment of fees.

Confidentiality

I respect the confidentiality of my clients and am happy to sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) before commencing your assignment.

Editing and Reviews

I work with you until you are 100% satisfied with your copy. Sometimes it takes one or two edits, but most of my writing jobs are approved on first draft.
