He should estimate how much he would charge for writing one page. Multiply by 150 to get an estimate for 150 pages.

You're welcome.

I plan on charging $5 for 1000 words. I'm guessing 150 pages should be over 50,000 words. Would $750 be okay?

150 paged novel?
Are you serious? So he can sell for hundreds of thousands of dollars over the next few years.

Least you can Take is $5000. Ideally $20,000.

Unless its just junk you put together.

But a novel!

Anyway, depending on the kind of novel you are asked to write. If it's cartoon, or some sort of children's book, then you may charge $5-10 per page. But if it's a professional novel capable of winning awards, then $10,000+ is just the ideal worth.

Bastard, he's seeking advice , not estimate.

How Much Should I Charge For A 150 Paged Novel On Fiver



The author above clearly seeks our opinion and counselling, not a nonchalant "num-of-page X 150" kind of estimates. The worst of it is that she didn't even estimate in figures, but made a vague repetition of the question the OP asked which is mockery and a nonchalant display. That's called a vague estimate which is not different from silence.

Usually the charge is word based. You should make your own conversion, how much do you charge per word, take that and try to estimate the number of words obtainable in a 150 paged novel and then multiply by the amount you charge per word.

I'll go further, most charge $5 per every 700 word. If you're writing withMicrosoft word using a TNR format with size 12 font, then a page will have 300 words. So, basically charge $5 for every 2 page. So, if you divide 150 pages by 2 , you get 75, 75 pages multiplied by $5 will equal $375.

Charge the client $375. It's fair, it's balanced, everybody wins and you can easily explain your fee format.

$5 per 500 words on Fiverr is for word editing and proofreading, not for creative writing like writing a novel. Charging what you suggested will mean the writer shooting himself in the foot. Don't look at our exchange rate and think $375 is ok for such a brain work. I will suggest the writer does his 500 words calculation and then add extra charge to it because he will be creating what isn't there unlike proofreading what is already there.

Since you have proven to be a certified fool, I will correct you by force!

First, the adverb how is often used as a trigger to make a request, seek advice, instructions, etc.

However, to request an estimate, you begin the statement like "I need a cost estimate for a project", "I would appreciate it if you would provide me with a quotation for Model Bleep, inclusive of all costs." and "Could I have an estimate of redecoration and furnishing of my four suites? "


Here, "estimate" and "quotation" are both used. If you don't know, "quotation" means "a formal statement setting out the estimated cost for a particular job or service. "ensure you receive a written quotation covering all aspects of the job" according to the dictionary.

What I am saying in essence is that ALL ESTIMATE REQUESTS ARE DIRECT, PRECISE and are mostly anchored on specific words like estimate, quotation, or any of their synonyms. .. Hence, how much should I charge is an appeal from someone requesting advice, suggestions or mentorship. Please consult your dictionary and other English sources for the meaning and usage of estimate.

150 page novel.. Guy you get strength o. grin

Hope say when you start, you go finish?

If the guy come reject the novel after so much work. your own don done..

Work smart on fiverr not hard. Anything less than $350 for the novel is a big loss to you.

On fiverr always price high then come down... Never choose a low price o.


And if your reviews are great, they'll always pay!
