Melissa Weintraub worked with me to insure that my book manuscript (eventually published as Situating Composition: Composition Studies and the Politics of Location) met the specifications of my publisher, Southern Illinois University Press. She checked to be sure that the format met the press's specifications (in terms of spacing, font size, etc.) She also read the manuscript to insure that all references in the Works Cited appeared in the text, and vice-versa.
I found Melissa to be professional in every respect. When Southern Illinois University's editor (and later freelance copyeditor and indexer) reviewed my manuscript, they did not discover any errors in the work that Melissa did with the manuscript.

With very short notice, Melissa Weintraub was able to edit and polish my writing so that it was concise, clear and fluid. At the same time, she was able to retain my natural voice and make my intentions clear to the reader.
I am very appreciative of her work. She was professional and communicated clearly how to adapt her changes into my work. I would use her again any time.

Even someone who has made his living from his writing, as I have, can benefit from having a second set of eyes look at the material. Whether it is just in catching the occasional misspelling or typo, to offering a fresh viewpoint on what I am trying to communicate, Melissa's editing and suggestions have always proven useful and thought provoking.

Melissa provided complete, prompt and accurate service. I will definitely work with her the next time editing services are needed.
