  • "Clare thinks critically and compassionately about your work, with as much commitment as if it were her own piece. She takes care of both the macro- and the micro-level of editing. She will sharpen your meaning, boldly move giant blocks of text around and confirm your own instincts about how your essay needs to change.”
