About Me

Hi! I'm Lauren Simek. For over twenty years, I’ve helped people discover effective ways to communicate their ideas and tell their stories. I’ve partnered with a broad range of individuals, from honors students, graduate students, and faculty to veterans, business owners, thought leaders, creative writers, school teachers, and retirees. I am a published writer myself, with a PhD in English Literature, and have experience working with academic writing, literary fiction, memoir, and nonfiction. I welcome all opportunities for new projects and would love to hear from you.

Services

Experience You Can Trust

For Academics

Are you a graduate student or faculty member? I'd be happy to assist with dissertations, journal articles, proposals, books, theses, and other forms of academic writing.

For People with Ideas

Do you have promising ideas to share with the world, but don't tend toward writing in your everyday life? I'd love to provide support as a writing coach, writing partner, or ghostwriter.

Testimonials

Jim Gaona Ellis, Author of Educators Are Designers,

forthcoming from Harvard Education Press

“My work was accepted at a more prestigious publisher because of Lauren’s experience and expertise. Without her guidance, support, and skill, this outcome would not have been possible. Lauren is a masterful editor who demonstrates an incredible ability to guide large, complex writing projects with precision, and helped me clearly define the scope and goals of my book. As a writing partner, she clarified my ideas, elevated them into magnificent prose, and organized the whole thing masterfully for publication. Writing professionally can be taxing, but Lauren's warm and supportive personality made the entire process enjoyable.”
