Visit our Loyalty Program page for more information on Red Points.

*Estimated cost. Because word count may vary after content edit or beta read, the new amount will be calculated when the project is submitted for the second stage of the package.

**Red Points are calculated based on word count. Calculations are performed for each project. Word count will be rounded to the nearest 10,000. Word count will not be cumulative across projects. No points are awarded for additional proofreads, editor calls, or NetGalley slots purchases. See Loyalty Program page for more information.

***For estimation purposes only. We use current Microsoft Word to obtain word count for all projects. RAE is not responsible for miscalculations, and the listed rate will be used to calculate price.
