Hi, I’m Greg. I started Greg Chase Editorial Services because I understand the satisfaction that comes from reading a crisp, well-crafted sentence. Whether you’re working on an academic article, a graduate school application essay, a novel, or something else, my mission is to provide you with a second pair of eyes to ensure that your prose is as clear, compelling, and precise as it can be. Greg Chase Editorial Services offers everything from extensive feedback on works-in-progress to careful proofreading of nearly finished products, all with the goal of helping you raise your writing to the next level.

My entire professional life has been devoted to producing careful, effective writing, and to imparting these same skills to others. After graduating magna cum laude from Yale University with a BA in English, I went on to earn a PhD in English at Boston University. I have published one full-length book, Wittgenstein and Modernist Fiction: The Language of Acknowledgment (Anthem Press, 2022) and one co-edited essay collection, Stanley Cavell’s Must We Mean What We Say? at 5o (Cambridge University Press, 2022), as well as a number of peer-reviewed articles, chapters in scholarly books, and reviews of contemporary novels. (For more on the various kinds of writing I’ve done, see my other website.) I have over a decade of experience teaching writing at the college level, first at Boston University and then at the College of the Holy Cross.

More recently, I’ve worked as a Fellowship Advisor for Brown University as a fellowship advisor, advising students who are applying to nationally competitive fellowships like the Rhodes, Marshall, and Fulbright. I currently work as a Writer/Editor for the Harvard Radcliffe Institute, where I research and write reports and lecture introductions for the Dean of the Institute, while also editing the work of other members of the Dean’s Office writing team. Across these experiences, I have honed my ability to edit other people’s writing, helping them bring out what’s best and most exciting in their own visions.

Greg Chase Editorial Services specializes in academic scholarship (including but not limited to: dissertations, master’s theses, tenure dossiers, in-progress articles or books); college and graduate program application essays; and fiction. While my own background is in the Humanities, I have experience working with—and am happy to take on—clients in all academic disciplines, including STEM and the Social Sciences. I am also experienced in working with writers whose native language is not English.
