I'm back!
In the spring of 2012, there was a misunderstanding, and the mods closed this thread. I tried to change their minds, but... well, when you argue with forum mods, it can only go so far before they decide you're too much trouble, so I let it drop.
Recently, I finally got things cleared up with the mods. Tinman831 has graciously agreed to re-open my thread, and has even more graciously allowed me to bump the thread back to the first page -- once. So here I am.
Like the big services, I'll work with you on your personal statements and application essays until they're perfect. There are some important differences, however:
#1: I'm a lot cheaper.
#2: I'm a lot better.
#3: You will always get me, instead of whichever corporate employee happens to be available on a given day.
(and, to be honest, there's also #4: Because I'm just one guy doing this by myself, sometimes I won't be available. Sorry!)
I'm still $40/hour, minimum one hour. I'm still painstakingly fair about billable time. I'm still accessible via my SDN Forums username @ GMail. And I still look forward to working with you.
IMPORTANT NOTE:if your SDN Forums account is newly created, or if you haven't ever posted elsewhere on the Forums, then I have to ask that you please not post in this thread. I'll still work with you, but you'll have to contact me either through e-mail or through the SDN PM system.

After a recent session of polishing and perfecting his personal statement, my client suggested to me that I offer my services on the SDN Forums. So... here I am.
Like Essay Edge, AdmissionsEssays.com, and Accepted.com, I'll help you with your personal statements and application essays. The difference is that I'm a lot better, and a lot cheaper.
I charge $40/hour, minimum one hour... and you pay only for the time we actually spend working on your PS.
I'll go through the document with you over Google Talk, line by line -- word by word if need be -- until it's perfect. (And remember, you pay ONLY for the time spent in useful conversation.)
Because I don't have an established reputation here yet, I'm offering an introductory bargain:
[the first five SDN clients will get a free hour, on the condition that they post honest feedback in this thread.] SORRY, THE INTRODUCTORY BARGAIN IS NO LONGER BEING OFFERED.
E-mail me: my SDN Forums username at GMail. I look forward to working with you.
