‘I requested Hilary’s services when an editor asked me to undertake professional proofreading for an academic article I had written. Hilary offered a very timely service, and produced very thorough and detailed comments which will be easy for me to implement in my paper. She also made the effort to match up her comments with the specific style format of the journal, which was very useful.
Thanks for the great work on this, Hilary. I will be sure to contact you again should another editor ask for proofreading.’
