Does your writing need a little magic?

Who am I?

I’m a professional academic editor, non-traditional teacher, scholar, and writing coach-consultant.I am passionate about helping writers create beautiful words that clearly convey your meaning to your audience. As someone who has written for businesses, investors, and academics, in journals, blogs, marketing materials, and a dissertation, I understand the processes involved in effective writing.I’ve studied writing styles and techniques, languages and dialects, grammar and structures. While doing my Masters in English Composition, I worked with struggling legal writers and researched a variety of writing structures, including narrative point-of-view, international English writers, and humanities, business, and legal writing.I’ve worked with writers from all kinds of backgrounds, disciplines, and levels—in publishing, academia, business, and education.

“Tabitha is a professional! She provides thoughtful and constructive feedback that strengthens my work. She is reliable and returns work on the promised dates. I recommend her without hesitation.”-MM, university professor

“Tabitha was excellent in her role. As an editor she listened and took on a supportive role in a collegial way. Her ability to understand what was needed is commendable as it led to the desired outcome. She not only made herself available but reached out to ensure nothing was misunderstood or misinterpreted. I highly recommend individuals to work with Dr. Messsmore because she is one who wants the best for those she assists. This is evident by her ability and willingness to go above and beyond!”-Kenya H. dissertation writer
