Credible networks you can use to find a dissertation writer

Hey everyone,

I came on this website last night and was very happy to find that almost everyone of the sites I found when I searched on google was fraud and thanks to this site I avoided them. I started looking for an writer/editor for my brother's thesis since it is due in 5 days for him to graduate from the Honors college at Arizona State University. He had done most of the work, but we needed to find him a professional to review it for accuracy, edit it to prepare for publication, and format it to APA format.

I searched for several hours last night and was fortunate to come across two websites that are very different than the ones that are posted on most of the forums. Most of the messages refer to individual websites that advertise that they will provide the service and set you up with a writer. Instead, these two sites actually list out the profiles and contact information for individual thesis editing/consulting professionals so you can find the professionals that work for whatever you need. Here are the sites that I used:

1) Association for the Support of Graduate Students (ASGS): asgs.org/consdetl.html. This has a listing of about 100 consultants who provide assistance with different types of thesis and dissertation papers. The list is a couple of years old, so some of the emails or phone numbers may no longer be active. Nonetheless, I reached out to 10 people on this list and corresponded with 5 of them over the day today.

2) Cambridge Editors Network: cambridge-editors.org/editors.html. This website has a listing of different editing professionals similar to the previous website divided by particular areas such as copy editing, research writing, proofreading, and technical editing. I reached out to about 8 people this morning and corresponded with 3 of them over the day today.

3) EssayScam.org, EssayDirectory.com, EssayBrand.com, EssayChat.com. Plus whatever other credible websites you may find or suggest.

One of the people on the ASGS list had just the area of expertise we needed and could make it by the deadline. I talked with him over the phone twice today and emailed back and forth about 5-6 times so I could explain to him the full extent of the situation. He has been a statistics consultant for the last 25 years and I have reviewed both his resume and found court cases that he has been the expert witness for.

Obviously the person I found is not going to be the best fit for everyone, but I hope these websites can give you a network through which you can find someone that is suited to your needs. Best of luck to you all!

Best,
Ben

Thanks Ben.
May you tell us whom you have chosen?

hello!

Thanks for the links...do you know if they "just" edit work? I.e. do you know if they offer writing services? Thanks!

Thank you for the links! really helpful!

I think you ask for that as "full service" ...

I've found that editing a paper requires almost as much work as just writing it from scratch.

Sometimes even more unless the writing is unusually good and only needs some minor fixing up. It usually takes me less time to write from scratch than to interpret and deconstruct bad writing and rewrite it entirely, making sure to include every point that (I think) the original author was trying to make. I burned myself a few times under-quoting a project because it was "just editing" that ended up taking more time than writing the same number of words starting with a blank page. It's also tedious work because you can't write more than a sentence or two at a time without stopping and going back to the original.

Can anybody recommend a reliable individual writing in the law and anthropology field for completion of a dissertation already started? Thanks.

I once had a student come to me requesting that I paraphrase a research paper 56 pages long. I did that. Client came back and said I was dishonest and did not do the work properly. I asked him what was dishonest when he asked me to paraphrase a paper and, as per 3 different plagiarism checkers on my end the paper was 95 percent original, and the "special" plagiarism software of the company, the paper was 98% original (I had to keep the mathematical formulas and solutions intact). He kept asking me create a new paraphrase of already paraphrased content. By the 3rd request for revision, I had had enough and escalated the situation to QAD. They determined that the client had ordered the wrong paper. He wanted editing, not paraphrasing. So, I wasn't at fault and the saga of the never ending re-paraphrasing requests came to an end. After that horrific experience, I made a vow never to work on paraphrasing and editing requests ever again. It just isn't worth the trouble. It would have been a lot simpler to just write a new paper for the client using the same sources.

Hey! I thought endorsements of writing websites were not permitted on this forum? Yet that is exactly what happened in the original post for this thread. Well, I don't believe that this guy even tried to get around the ruling. He simply stated it as a fact and everyone else approved of what he did. While I understand that it might be permissible since it was posted under Essay Services, I still think that giving people a list of options is wrong. A network is no different from what EssayScam offers, which is a place for people to connect with one another and hire services (privately). I am not sure about how those networks function but, if it functions in a manner similar to ES, then that OP just posted an endorsement of the competition, which should never be allowed. This company representative was really creative in getting around the rules.

Well, it is nice to see that there are also other forums that work on helping connect students with reliable writing services. There should definitely be more of these vetting sites and direct writer access forums to help the students steer clear of the questionable writing companies and solely social media promoted independent writers. While I do use social media to promote myself and my company, I do not rely solely on social media for my promotions since that is where most of the blackmailers are found and I would hate to have myself or my company lumped with those criminals. Based on what I have seen at these sites, they seem to be legit and their network is also composed of legit writers and other companies. It would be good for students to use both ES and the sites mentioned above when looking for a reputable writer or writing service to work with. You can never consult too many reliable networks in this case. However, I would tend to prioritize ES recommendations since this forum seems to be much older than the others and hence, have a more reliable pool of companies and writers.

It is kinda difficult to accept referrals at this forum these days. While that endorsement is already against the rules, it also fails to consider that these writing sites, editing services, and other related entities could be relying on AI for the work that a human should be doing. These companies have begun to spin off into AI writing services for students, claiming that their paid AI service would result in a better written paper for the student, making it a better option if the student does not wish to opt for the more expensive human counterpart writing.
