The editor just sent me the decision (revise and resubmit) along with the reviews. The editor highlighted that he “found the paper's writing to be exceptionally clear and the organization of the paper to be logical.” The first review praises “a carefully written and thoughtful analysis” and the second reviewer writes that “it’s focused, it’s clear”. While there are other strengths of the paper mentioned as well, I think all this praise of the text being clear, focused, and carefully written, is very much down to your thorough work. Thank you so much for this! It’s good to know that the exhaustive editing was worth the hassle.

A few days ago, I was informed of ASR's decision to accept my paper. I think that your fine-tuned editing was a significant contributor to the decision. Thank you so much for your help.

Jennifer's work pleasantly surprised me. She was responsive and responsible. But above all, I was really happy with her comments on my papers. To my knowledge, most editors comment mainly on grammatical errors and writing styles. But Jennifer's editing gave me more than that. She pointed out logical flaws in my paper and gave some tips to make the paper more suitable for publication. Her comments were more like the kinds of comments you would expect from your own advisor!!!! I strongly recommend Jennifer as your editor. I'm sure you'll find her an excellent editor.​

Thank you very much for all your help this year. It's been a huge relief that I know an absolutely reliable editor who helps me to articulate my idea as well as gives insightful comments. I appreciate that and look forward to another year to work with you.

Jennifer's fresh eye and sharp pencil were just what my dissertation needed at the end. She was incredibly thorough, reading it word by word and ensuring everything that needed to be there was, and anything that didn't need to be there was not. She was able to spot errors I could no longer see. And she gave thoughtful comments and suggestions.

 

Her attention to detail was complemented by her very conscientious commitment to time, budget, and specific requests. Before beginning the project and as she finished each chapter, she checked in with me about my time needs and kept me up to date on what I could expect and when. She never returned a chapter later than she promised. She also adjusted her level of editing to fit my needs. My confidence in the final version of my dissertation was much higher knowing a professional had edited every page. It was money very well spent! I would highly recommend Jennifer's work to improve the quality of any piece of important writing.

The review you did this afternoon was excellent. Perfect! Exactly on target.

Thank you for your wonderful editing! You're a very scrupulous editor. Your thorough editing is a great help for me, who was born without the ability to pay attention to details. Most importantly, you are highly trained in the field of sociology. You knew what I wanted to say in my paper and I didn't have to explain in detail what the concepts (such as "life course") are. You can give more specialized and detailed comments in the field of sociology and related social sciences. I think that is a huge plus. I can rely on your comments/editing when I submit/present my papers in front of other sociologists.
 

I’ve reviewed your edits and would like to share with you how beautifully your editing was done. You just saw through my points and made the sentences alive.

I really appreciate your work, not only you kindly accommodated my time constraints, but also your help really made my meanings come across. Thank you very much!!! I am so grateful.
