“Mark has been a fantastic writing coach, helping me through several articles and cover letters in the last few years. He has a wonderful way of pointing out where my writing needs work and then suggesting how to improve it. He helps me sound how I want to sound.”

“Mark is an excellent editor for all writer types, in all genres. I've worked with Mark on my own writing and have also referred him to friends—nobody gets angry at Mark. You're thick-skinned and can take a strong edit? Mark makes all the right moves, and he does it fast. A little more thin-skinned? He edits like he's your best friend and brings you to the promised land. Insightful, empathetic, and always on your side. He's a PRO and he's my go-to.”

—Eric Wolfinger, professional cook and baker turned James Beard Award-winning food photographer

“For more than a decade, Mark and I worked as colleagues as he taught university-level writing courses, presented workshops, and tutored at in-person colloquia. He served as a subject matter expert in writing for course development teams, and I was consistently impressed by his ability to convey insights into the writing process gleaned from his experiences writing for The Boston Globe, Slate, Psychology Today, and other media. Mark has a keen eye for the editorial process. He is an excellent writer/collaborator and an outstanding writing coach.”
