CambridgeEditors' services are designed for a diverse clientele. We offer the opportunity to work in person at our Cambridgeport location, or through email and telephone conversations, depending on your needs and the nature of your project. 

The WrittenCritique

The Written Critique takes the long view in helping writers of a sizable document, such as a book or creative piece.  We assist in clarifying goals, themes, structure, and plot, thereby strengthening the organization and cultivating the voice of your project. Once this has been addressed, we then focus on content, suggesting solutions to blockages, and guiding you in foregrounding your strengths. Choosing this option, you can expect a close reading and frequent marginal comments. The culmination is a comprehensive, point-by-point critique.

The Line-by-LineEdit

This service engages with your manuscript page by page, catching grammatical errors, working with the language, and offering solutions to organizational stumbling blocks. We first work with extreme detail, and then widen out to give you a response to the piece as a whole. Recognizing the unique requirements of each genre, we attend to stylistic matters and formatting, especially where scholarly articles are concerned. Each writer calls for a personalized approach, and we focus on the reasons you have come to us, and your specific concerns.

DissertationCoaching

Completing a dissertation is an overwhelming experience that often requires assistance beyond your departmental advisor. As your Dissertation Coach, we can lend support at any stage of the process—from clarifying your proposal, to organizing and structuring your ideas, to preparing you for your dissertation defense, and even helping you overcome procrastination and frightening writer’s block. Our goal as your coach is to help you find clarity of grammar, style, argument, and structure, and find success in completing your project.
