Services & Pricing
I specialize in Christian, fashion and lifestyle content.
I am available for freelance editing of any length—from articles and blog posts to books. I can help conceptualize an idea from the ground up through organizational outlines and pertinent editorial input. I can also fine-tune mostly completed work by proofreading for voice, relevancy and grammar and punctuation.
In writing, I am well-versed in magazine articles and blog posts. If you’re looking for a practiced writer for profiles, first-person experiences and/or charming feature articles, I’m just the journalist!
Editing - $35 per hour, or an agreed upon total price for a full book
Writing - $200 for a 500-word piece

Testimonials
“I’ve had the pleasure of knowing and working with Kendall for a number of years and it’s hard to say which I’ve been more impressed with! Her unerring eye for determining and relaying the crux of a story is very much informed by the humanity and sensitivity that is central to her life. She’s the best!”
“Kendall is a wonderful editor! Super responsive and on top of things. Highly recommend!”
“When Kendall and I started working together, she first established a set of guidelines for our writing that we would use so as to be uniform in our work. We covered everything from em dashes to spelling out numbers. Within that framework, she was readily able to write copy that evoked the whimsy and reward of touring with my company, catching the spirit of the message in the right way. It was not something I had to worry about, and it was a treat to have her at the helm in these areas.”
