Testimonials
“Meghan will be an extraordinarily thoughtful reader of your manuscript. She gets the big picture while not losing sight of the the details that can make a written work shine. I recommend her highly to anyone looking for support with a scholarly writing project, no matter how big or small.”
— Professor of English
“Meghan provided extremely smart and thoughtful feedback on my book manuscript. Her help was crucial to helping me develop a manageable and executable plan for revisions. Meghan’s interdisciplinary expertise meant that she was adept at identifying gaps in my argumentation, and her feedback helped me to execute concrete changes that made my arguments more persuasive. Thanks to the care that she took in helping me clarify the narrative throughline of my book, she was also able to help me answer a question that had been plaguing me: how best to approach the book’s conclusion.”
