Megan Krone, PhD
Writing Coach & Editor
I can help your work shine through your writing.
I am a writing coach and editor offering support for writers of any level at any point in their process.
As a writing coach, I listen for the underlying story of a project and then help writers organize their writing with attention to the strength and flow of the narrative or argument. I’m here to help your work shine through your writing and strive to provide feedback in a manner that maintains the writer as the owner and expert of their work.
As an editor, I provide edits for grammar, syntax, punctuation, clarity, and conciseness for any written work.
My background is in academic editing, particularly in supporting students, faculty, staff, and researchers who are in the social sciences and are working on academic articles, doctoral dissertations, and doctoral program application materials. I have a thorough knowledge of the application of APA formatting (6th and 7th editions) in Microsoft Word documents and adhere strictly to academic integrity guidelines.
I offer discounts for students, doctoral candidates, frontline workers, and any projects with a social justice focus.
I’m also here to give you the support you need to make it to your finish line, encouraging you all along the way.

Coaching and Editing Services
I offer a range of services, from coaching on writing in an academic style to consulting on organization to line-by-line editing for grammar, syntax, punctuation to application of APA formatting.
I start every client relationship with a conversation about the client’s purpose and passions, goals, constraints, desired level of support, and timeline. This conversation allows me to suggest the most appropriate services for each individual based on their situation. Starting with an understanding of the writer’s purpose, goals, and constraints and continuing with consistent communication allows for shared expectations and adequate flexibility at each stage of the process.
It’s important to me that you remain the expert and owner of your work.
I’m here to assist you in creating a clear, concise written document that communicates your message clearly and concisely.
I am available by email and by appointment to answer questions or discuss any element of your project and needs.

Testimonials
“Megan Krone was my editor for my dissertation completed in 2018 at Northeastern University. She provided excellent guidance and superior editing. In many instances, the turn around from my end was very tight. Megan not only delivered on my requests but provided the needed calm necessary so that the work and reviews would be done. I seriously would not have completed this important academic quest, without Megan Krone. She is a consummate editor and coach.”
