"Here, as promised, is my response to the essays in your issue [of the Journal of Women's History] on "Comp. Het." {Compulsory Heterosexuality}. It was very interesting and moving to read them and to think and write about my own vexed history with it. In a way it feels like a closure to me, and I am grateful to you for making this possible. The issues and struggles go on, but I believe and hope that these dialogues in JWH will be clarifying and useful for future feminist historians and activists.
Could you send me a couple of copies of the issue in which the essays appeared, for my personal archive?

I get asked a lot to recommend editors and editing services. I highly recommend my friend Stephanie! She's sharp and a pleasure to work with!

I am grateful to Stephanie for being my book doula! She read every word twice and made practical, effective interventions. When I was exhausted from the project, she boosted me up with her energy and enthusiasm. And then she even sent me a dope playlist that I can imagine Shirley Chisholm herself dancing to!
It was a delight to work with Formore Editorial Services. Stephanie’s combination of careful, thoughtful editing and enthusiasm for my project made my book many times better, and also boosted my confidence when I worried if the book was ready to send into the world. I look forward to working together again on my next project!
I struggle with my fiction and Stephanie is an amazing editor with such a great eye for what drives my writing! I feel so seen by reading her assessments, and her enthusiasm is infectious. She makes me look forward to the work, which is HUGE!
As a writer and community educator, I am in awe at the work Stephanie and I have done together in just three months. From mapping out large writing visions and discussing potential presses, to revising articles and contacting agents, Stephanie has been a strong advocate for my research and writing agenda. Her flexibility and willingness to figure out processes to help me are matched only by her knowledge and care about writing serious nonfiction to reach a mass audience.
Working with Stephanie was terrific from start to finish! She is encouraging, personable, and gave me the feedback I needed to take my work to the next level! Highly recommend!
I have published five academic books and Formore Editorial Services was the most efficient, professional, cost effective publisher I have ever worked with. I give them my highest recommendation. www.duchessharris.com. I give it a 5/5!
Thank you for helping me shape my ideas and for your understanding of important social justice issues. That level of smarts in an editor is rare and necessary right now.

Formore Editorial Services is the single greatest editorial service a writer could ask for. Never in all my years as a writer have I found a more enthusiastic, knowledgeable, patient editor like I found in Stephanie Gilmore. Her diligent work, intelligent compromises, and passionate adoration of the written word have made a difficult process painless. If your work is personal, if it matters to you that your writing receives personal attention from someone who wants only to enhance your talent, there's no better person to link with than the helpful, diligent crew at Formore. If I could give them 100 stars, I'd wrest them from the heavens.
