Intentional, Transparent Pricing for Every Story

At Jack Val Trades, clarity is foundational—both in your writing and in how we work together. That’s why I offer clear, a la carte pricing, modeled after the Editorial Freelancers Association (EFA) standard rates, with thoughtful flexibility for the unique shape of every creative project.

Whether you’re nurturing a single poem, a full novel, or a professional portfolio, these offerings are designed to support your work with care, precision, and transparency.
