TESTIMONY FROM PAST CLIENTS
PROJECT EDITOR;
ACADEMIC PRESS
As always, an unparalleled job! In my twenty-three years in the publishing industry I have never worked with an editor who has matched your linguistic expertise, constructive copy editing, and knowledge of the field. If only we had four or five more of you!
ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR;
LIBERAL ARTS COLLEGE
Very deep appreciation for your diligent work on this manuscript. I can truly say that both the prose and research dealt with in my book has been vastly improved thanks to your help. . . . You will most definitely be hearing from me again when the next project comes around.
PROJECT EDITOR;
UNIVERSITY PRESS
Considering the difficulty and size of this project, I am thrilled with how everything has turned out (not to mention almost week ahead of schedule!) A lesser copy editor would have balked at the footnotes alone. . . . Thank you for your effort on this one; it has certainly made my job much easier.

Academic and House Styles
Got an article that needs to be formatted for a particular journal? How about a collection of essays with a "divergent" sense of style? Regardless whether you're an academic publisher with a specific house style or an author submitting research to a peer-reviewed publication, our experienced editorial staff will get any manuscript into the shape you need it to be in. Consistency is the name of the game here!
