TESTIMONIALS.

I cannot fully express my gratitude about Susan’s editorial contributions. I remain a bit dumbfounded about how she simultaneously handled so many nuanced details of copyediting and also big-picture elements of fact-checking etc. There are multiple instances of situations where she flagged something that would have been deeply embarrassing if we had not caught it, and she was the only person to have done so.

I just wanted to send you a note of thanks for all your careful edits to the manuscript and thoughtful suggestions…. Your work has made me think a lot more about the writing, and … you uncovered many weak points that I needed to rework. Thank you for helping to improve the book!

I hired Susan Matheson as an editor, and received not only excellent editing, but a teacher to continuously improve my writing. Her ability to follow and critique the flow of scientific documents is impressive, as is her attention to detail. She has proven immensely valuable for increasing the quality and quantity of my writing output.

Susan Matheson functions effectively at so many levels. She is, first and foremost, a superb copyeditor and stylist—an invaluable commodity for anyone wishing to put together a polished product. She can do research and quickly understand the main arguments of a paper or a topic (and concisely communicate the main ideas in writing). She can rough out some of your ideas in writing. And she works efficiently and according to your schedule. Finally, she's just plain smart. I enthusiastically recommend Susan's services.
