I’m so glad I found Emily. The time I spent with her was even more fruitful than her website and the guidance she shares in her blog. In our first conversation she asked practical questions about my goals and ideas, and got me on track when a graduate essay prompt derailed me. She was calm, reassuring and moved me toward a completed written piece I felt good about.

I wanted to thank you again for all of your help with my application essay for film school. I also wanted to update you and let you know that I was accepted to my first choice school! I will be attending in the Fall. Your coaching and perspective was so helpful in getting my ideas clarified and concise. I reread my essay again twice before my interview and it was so helpful to be able to reference some of the language in it when answering questions the admissions committee posed. Thank you!

“Emily has been a tremendous help throughout the physical therapy grad school application process. Her work did more than correcting grammatical errors and editing. She helped me collect my thoughts and gave me confidence in the writing samples I submitted to the schools. Thank you!”

Emily was a guiding light helping me through an otherwise stressful time, as I worked to complete my application materials for law school.  Her direct and insightful coaching style got me to the finish line!  I trust Emily implicitly for all my writing needs.

Emily was proofreading and editing the essay for my first publication in the field of Sociolinguistics. It was my first publication in English, so I was looking for someone with Emily’s experience and her level of professionalism. She provided me with a detailed review and gave several helpful recommendations on how to improve my manuscript. English is not my native language, so I would greatly recommend Emily’s services to ESL and EFL speakers.

truly gifted as an editor

Working with Emily was one of the best decisions I made on my path to graduate school. She took the time to get to know me and my values before helping me edit my essays. Additionally, we had conversations before each draft to talk about my strengths and weaknesses in that writing piece. Emily’s edits were super helpful to me because she helped me convey the message I wanted in the character limit I had. She is truly gifted as an editor, and I am so glad I was able to find her.

Emily is a joy to work with. She is detailed, responsive, and a beautiful writer. She does more than correct the text, she is a thought partner on how to best communicate the content.

Emily Mace has the keen editorial skills to first listen and read carefully. She then responds with timely insightful comments and improvements to my drafts. It is refreshing to see my words evolve in my voice as they better express my intentions.  She is efficient, articulate and tactful. Her charges are quite reasonable. I found working with Emily to be relaxed and productive and plan to continue with her for the next stages of my writing project. I recommend Emily Mace without reservation for online editing services. — Claudia Elferdink, Independent historical researcher and writer

Before I forget … I want to be sure to tell you HOW HELPFUL AND USEFUL are your recent comments on our project! We just spent over two hours together going through your points and making suggested revisions.  At the end, we looked at each other and basically said: “Man, Emily really helped us sharpen our analysis.”
We were especially impressed with the care and precision with which you went over every single sentence. So many thanks for your hard and excellent work!

“Emily’s writing coaching skills are second to none. She has the rare ability to both understand the point you are trying to make as well as aid you in constructing the appropriate syntax to make that point completely, efficiently, and with engaging prose. Her feedback on my PhD personal statements allowed me to improve my logic and flow dramatically while retaining my own voice. I am confident that she played a big role in my admission to schools like Yale, Columbia, and Stanford.”
