Testimonials

“I was lucky to find Andrew  — he was a smart reader of my work and his questions helped make the manuscript lucid and sharp. If you want clarity, he’s your guy.”

Devin Griffiths, Associate Professor of English and Comparative Literature, University of Southern California

I appreciated Andrew’s meticulous review of my not always meticulous citations and MLA formatting. I learned a lot by reviewing what he did with my manuscript, and I valued his professionalism in the process. I want to repeat that Andrew does excellent work.
