Overview
While being new to the path of authorship and the field of editing, I must say Alicia has provided me with a great experience. This editor I felt did a great job in picking up my writing style and combing insightfully through my manuscript. This has been a great experience, thank you.
Thank you so much for your corrections, recommendations, and comments. Your comments have been very encouraging, and I am now feeling a little more confident about the entire manuscript than I was before. I really appreciate all the suggestions/amendments you have made—it definitely looks a lot better now! Thank you so much once again! You have been extremely helpful and kind.
I always am very satisfied with your work! Unlike other editors, you are always careful not to change my original meanings. I also like the way you make changes for clarity. I really appreciate it. Thank you.
