What our clients say.
It was a great pleasure to work with Erin O’Dwyer on a case study in biology. Erin’s critical eye for detail helped to address contentious issues in the topic. Scientific details were elaborated on and the narrative was improved, making it a simple and interesting case study.
– Dr Indu Somasundara Panicker, Federation University
I highly recommend Erin for her exceptional editing services. She invested time to understand my research topic and tailored the process to my needs. Her attention to detail and insightful suggestions enhanced the clarity and coherence of my Ph.D. proposal. Besides that, Erin met deadlines without compromising quality, demonstrating professionalism and reliability. I am grateful for her expertise and support, and confident that she will greatly benefit other academic researchers.
– Pinker Yao, PhD candidate, University of Canberra
I was introduced to Erin to help with a podcast project at the start of a career transition. I'd founded and exited a company in the property industry and was starting a podcast to explore climate change as a sector. From the first time we met she showed her clear expertise and passion for what she does: help others tell their own stories or the stories they're passionate about. Erin has a crystal clear view of what makes a good story and will challenge you on how you might need to massage or pivot your approach to get to the outcomes you're looking for. She has an extensive network of experts she can leverage to produce your project. Finally, Erin invests time to understand you, what you're trying to achieve and over time to build a working relationship based on openness and mutual trust.

“I had the pleasure of working with Good Prose Studios as thesis editors for my PhD dissertation. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and commitment to client satisfaction were truly exceptional. Erin took the time to understand my requirements thoroughly, asking detailed questions to ensure she captured exactly what I needed. Erin's ability to identify the right academic with the appropriate expertise for editing was instrumental in refining my thesis to its highest standard. Despite the complexity of the task, Good Prose Studios delivered efficiently and with great care.
I cannot recommend Good Prose Studios highly enough for anyone seeking top-notch editorial services. Their professionalism, responsiveness, and commitment to excellence are truly commendable.”
– Dr Jenny Binetter, Lecturer, UTS
“I worked with Erin on a public-facing report. Erin constantly engaged with my research team to ensure our report had a clear narrative, paying great attention to detail. It was a pleasure to work with her.”
– Professor Sora Park, University of Canberra
“I am an Associate Professor and English is not my first language. I wanted a pair of fresh eyes to read my document and used Erin’s editorial services. I was very pleased with the outcome. Erin’s suggestions improved the quality of my work and the service was completed within the promised timeframe for a reasonable price. I would definitely use Erin’s editorial services again.”
– Assoc Prof Gabriel Garcia, University of Wollongong
“I was commissioned to write three ‘provocative pieces’ for a university textbook on psychology. The pieces were: Obesity, Suicide and Transgender. Obviously I was concerned that I would be subject to politically correct pushback which might impair the factual nature of the messages I was trying to convey. The editor – Erin O’Dwyer – did nothing of the sort. Erin carefully reviewed and improved my prose, and went above and beyond in suggesting useful links that I had missed. After Erin had been through my pieces, they were vastly better than the original. I would welcome the opportunity to work with Erin again and I strongly commend her talents to you.”
– Emeritus Professor Felicity Allen, Charles Darwin University
Erin has provided timely editing support across a range of media literacy reports. She has alway delivered timely and thoughtful expert advice - which is why we keep coming back to work with her!

Erin and her team at Good Prose Studios were invaluable in polishing our volume, turning the writing into fluid, native-level English without losing its original flavour, or adding the bland veneer of an AI rewrite. Professional service delivered at high speed. Highly recommended!
- Associate Professor Duncan Poupard, The Chinese University of Hong Kong
I highly recommend Good Prose Studios for anyone seeking exceptional PhD thesis editing services. Their attention to detail, insightful feedback, and deep understanding of academic writing significantly improved the clarity and coherence of my work. Erin and her team not only enhanced the overall quality of my thesis but also helped me express my ideas more effectively, all while respecting my unique voice and style. Their professionalism and commitment to excellence made the editing process smooth and stress-free. I couldn’t have completed my thesis to such a high standard without their invaluable support.
- Crystal Arnold, PhD candidate, University of Wollongong
While reviewing our in-house model of content development and editing for multiple publications, we trialled outsourcing some of the work and in the process, discovered Good Prose Studios. It has proven an excellent collaboration and a rewarding experience. Their professionalism, skills and deadline appreciation have meant we can confidently rely on the quality and timeliness of the work and the bonus has been the care and kindness of Erin and Natalie, which we value enormously. As a result of the trial, we are eliminating our in-house resources and looking forward to continuing to build on our collaboration with Good Prose.
- Delyse Graham, Acting Head of Marketing, Westbourne Grammar School
Erin is an outstanding facilitator. Her work in designing learning materials is exceptional; she creates resources that are both informative and engaging for our participants. Student feedback frequently praises her ability to simplify complex concepts, making them accessible to all. Erin’s strong communication skills, openness to feedback, and meticulous attention to detail make her a pleasure to work with. Her commitment to excellence in every aspect of her work truly sets her apart. I highly recommend her.
- Natalia Borisova, Head, Centre for Continuing Education, University of Sydney
It was a real pleasure working with Erin at Good Prose Studios. Her turnaround times were fast, her comments were super helpful, and her suggestions for edits sharpened the prose. I especially appreciated Erin’s commentary provided in a cover letter with each edit in which she provided her overall perspective on what was working and what needed improvement. I highly recommend Erin as an effective document editor and writing coach.
- - Stephanie Bown, high performance executive coach, stephaniebown.com
From the moment we started collaborating, it was clear that Erin possesses a rare combination of intelligence, experience, and compassion. Erin’s understanding of complex topics, paired with the ability to communicate them in an engaging and accessible way, is impressive. Not only does she deliver high-quality work every time, but she also brings a great sense of humour to the table, making the sometimes emotionally difficult aspects of the writing process enjoyable.
- Felicia Zsha’Mirrze, speaker, women’s justice advocate and counsellor
Working with Erin has given me increased confidence to improve the quality of my work. She is an empathetic and patient listener, and provides clear and helpful editing feedback. I would highly recommend her services!
- Mitch Jones, author and creative director Oozing Future
Erin has had an immense impact on my writing. She is knowledgeable, timely, engaging, and encouraging. Erin is an excellent writing coach who is passionate about seeing her clients grow as writers.
- US-based writing mentee
Erin came to my aid when I was overwhelmed with excessive word counts and complex sentences. She immersed herself in my topic area and helped me develop strategies to reset my thought processes and convert my sentences into meaningful prose. She is professional, dedicated, and thorough. She is also very approachable and caring. I felt my progress was in safe hands once she became my sounding board.
- Joan Pietersen, PhD candidate and writing mentee
Erin is a master of her craft, and The Law Handbook 2024 simply would not have been possible without her insight and expertise in publication management and editing. It has been a true delight to work with an editor who not only has a solid understanding of our publication's purpose and legacy but is also adept at anticipating future needs of our audience.
- Rebecca Johnston-Ryan, Service Director & Principal Lawyer, Night Service, Fitzroy Legal Service
Erin takes writing seriously. I came to Erin to help write and edit my first book. In Erin I found a friend who was personal, fun and sometimes inspiring, and sometimes fiercely honest. A perfect balance of both. What she gave me was a book I was proud of. I really love Erin's approach, as a first time writer, all my reservations over my ability to actually finish a book disappear when I'm with Erin. Her approach is warm and caring and that's exactly what I needed.
- Ben Rennie, Co-Founder, Reny Studio
During the final stages of my PhD candidature, Erin has been an incredible asset to my work. Her precision and eye for detail has given me peace of mind upon submission. Erin’s engagement with my thesis went beyond her expert work in formatting and grammatical coherence, which has no doubt has yielded a stronger submission. Endeavouring to complete a PhD is a taxing thing, especially on the tail end; I have been so grateful for Erin’s expertise, time and flexibility around my own deadlines in such a timely fashion. I cannot recommend Erin more and hope to have the opportunity to work with her again in the future.
– Dr Amy Wright, Lecturer, Flinders University
I cannot recommend Erin more highly as an editor for your PhD thesis. Erin’s editing was extremely detailed and picked up a number of grammatical and formatting errors that had been missed, even after multiple reads! Erin provided professional and interactive support for my thesis and went over and above what I expected, providing detailed commentary to support the process. Erin delivered my thesis on time for submission. Thanks Erin!
– Dr Steven Burch, Lecturer, University of Tasmania
I am a PhD candidate and also an engineer. I worked together with Erin to proofread my thesis. Her excellent professional ability and rigorous work attitude deeply impressed me. She helped me improve both the coherence and detail of the thesis. It was a precious experience to work with an outstanding editor like her.
– Yinjun Tu, PhD candidate, RMIT
Thank you Erin, for the outstanding job that you did copyediting my PhD thesis. Your expertise and meticulousness have greatly enhanced the standard of the presentation of my research. Moreover, your professionalism and promptness in communication made the collaboration smooth and efficient. I always felt reassured knowing that my work was in capable hands.
– Anji Perera, PhD Candidate, University of Canberra
