Put Your Best Words Forward

Over a series of in-person meetings or video/phone calls, along with edits via shared documents, I'll help you craft your best college essays. Here's an idea of what the process will look like.

What I will do:

First, I will meet with you, in person or over Skype, to brainstorm with you to find the best stories that represent you at your most passionate, creative, committed, and engaging.

I will guide you, through a series of up to five online edits, and help you find your own unique voice.

I will ask you to find alternative, improved ways to rewrite what you already wrote.

I will continually press you to include concrete details that will bring your essay to life.

I will do final, limited grammar/punctuation correction.

What I will not do:

I will not write the essay for you.

I will not rewrite sentences for you (though I will point out sentences that should be rewritten).

I will not restructure your essay for you (though I will point out how a better structure might work).

I will not do the work for you.
