Testimonials

Bridgett Severt

Lecturer, Wright State University

“I first came to Laura for help in 2012. She was one of the best English students on campus and was recommended by her professors. I was finishing my master’s degree and had my final scholarly project to turn in. My writing was atrocious, and I couldn’t turn it in to my committee without help. An English professor on campus recommended Laura as an editor. She made a lot of edits and tracked everything she changed through Microsoft Word, along with added comments on things that I could change to make the meaning clearer. One of my committee members had a Ph.D. in English and couldn’t find one grammatical, spelling, or punctuation error in my final project, thanks to Laura. After graduation, I was looking for a job to teach anatomy at the college level. Laura helped edit my curriculum vitae, cover letter, and teaching philosophy statement. Laura was easy to work with and helped me reach my goal of becoming a lecturer at a university. She even helped me with a speech I had to give at a memorial service. I have recommended her to anyone in need of an editor and will continue to use and recommend Laura.”

Brian Paris

Writer, Hatch Effect

“When I started writing a comic book, I had no idea how important every single letter of every single word would be to the book. That fact became clear to me when my writing partner on Hatch Effect explained to me that in the comic book industry, there are professional artists called “letterers” who make the words of the story part of the visual art. You have to be absolutely sure that your story is perfect before they do their thing, because revisions at that point will blow your timeline and your budget. I knew I was going to need to find a proofreader for my issue scripts, and I feel very fortunate to have found Laura. Even with all the made-up pseudo-science in our story, Laura was able to interpret the material clearly and maintain grammatical accuracy throughout. In short, she helps me be a better writer, and she’s always my first call whenever I need to make sure my stuff is ready to go.”
