Frequently Asked Questions

How long will it take for you to format my dissertation?

My most affordable package is for a 7-day turnaround. But if you're in more of a rush, I also offer 4- and 3-day packages. Visit my Fiverr site for current rates.

What do you need in order to be able for format my dissertation or thesis?

I just need three things:

• Your completed Microsoft Word file. If you have chapters in separate files, you can send those files to me and I can combine them.

• A link to the formatting requirements your University expects you to follow and to any Style Guide you might be following. I'm familiar with APA7, MLA, and Chicago, so if you're using something else I'd appreciate you sending me a link to that Style Guide. 

• Your availability to answer daily questions from me as we move forward.

What if I'm not done writing?

We could run into version trouble if you are editing or composing new material in one copy while I'm formatting a different one.  I'll be "working on the engine of your car", so to speak, and it will cause problems if you try to "drive the car" at the same time!

So you should be done (I recognize that you're never really done...) or mostly done writing before you give me a file to format, and then hold off on any new writing while I'm working.  

I'll give you a review draft nearly every day, so there may be opportunities for you to add/edit material to that file, as long as you let me know you're going to do that.

How often will you update me about the progress?

I will always send you a first rough draft to review 24-36 hours after we commence the gig. This will give us both a chance to make sure I'm doing the things you expect, in the way you expect.

After that, I generally send an updated version nearly every day until we're done. Along with that, I'll give you an update of what I've done, and I'll usually have questions for you. It will be important that you answer those so that I can continue to move forward the next day.

What if I have to make changes after our gig is complete?

I'll be there for you. Just contact me via Fiverr and I'll be happy to incorporate any changes your advisor or university request before you make your final submission to the university. No additional charge, no new gig.

Will you format a research paper?

Yes, indeed. If you need your Figures to be automatically numbered, or to ensure that all of your section headings are consistent, and you need to meet your journal's many other formatting requirements, contact me.
