“Make it new.” – Ezra Pound

“When you take stuff from one writer, it's plagiarism; but when you take it from many writers, it's research.” – William Mizner

Need an editor? Having your book, business document or academic paper proofread or edited before submitting it can prove invaluable. In an economic climate where you face heavy competition, your writing needs a second eye to give you the edge. Whether you come from a big city like Minneapolis, Minnesota, or a small town like Nothing, Arizona, I can provide that second eye.
