Indeed! Starting back in middle school, I edited my mom's papers for her college classes. Since then, I have edited webzine articles, school papers for friends and family, and articles for different newspapers/journals. I stand by this - NO writer is perfect. I am not perfect, either. I do make common spelling mistakes all the time, and nobody's grammar can be absolutely amazing. But just having someone do a quick lookover of your paper can do wonders.

Sorry kids. I only edit. No amount of money is going to get me to write your paper... but I'll go over a few drafts with you if I have to. Cheaters never win, winners never cheat.
