Hire our freelance experts. Your happiness is guaranteed or you get your money back. (Disclaimer below.)

Do you need your novel manuscript edited? Do you need your scholarly article edited before you send it off for peer review? Do you need help navigating the print & online publishing worlds these days? Do you want to compose a sizzling rant to someone (famous or not)? Are you looking to enroll in a poetry workshop? Just feeling stuck and bewildered by the blank page?

Members of the Charlottesville Writing Center can provide you with the knowledge and skills to help satisfy your writing goals. Professional writers, editors, researchers, and teachers make up the CWC. It’s a specialized group, but we humbly admit that we don’t know everything.

Rates are reasonable: Clients are charged by the hour ($40-$65 range). On occasion we will consider a flat price for a project.
Turnaround times: Before you start talking with one of our associates, please look at a calendar to determine when you want your project completed. If your deadline is feasible, we can do it. If the project is too large for the deadline, we can farm it out to multiple associates and/or work within more a manageable timeframe.
The disclaimer: I think we can agree that true happiness is an inside job. We want you to feel the kind of satisfaction that can come from meeting your writing goals which in turn contribute to more joy. Maybe you will write your first sonnet, or maybe you will send off your edited and polished manuscript to an agent, or maybe you will find a community of like-minded writers (a priceless gift). We believe that we can help and would be grateful for the opportunity to try.

Next steps: Get in touch and tell us what you desire.
