I really appreciate your excellent copyediting work! You are a very strong copyeditor and you ask really good author queries. Unfortunately for you that means I usually send you the hardest articles! Hope you don’t mind. I certainly rely on your expertise.

I want to commend you for the masterful job you did editing the…manuscript. I finally finished going over it line by line and reading against the unedited manuscript. Your edits clarified and tightened up the writing while following AMA style, you caught a discrepancy between data in a table and the abstract/text, and you never altered the author’s meaning and often elegantly clarified it. Queries were appropriate and clearly phrased. Nothing was rephrased gratuitously–it’s a balancing act of clarifying while keeping the author’s meaning and tone, and you did a beautiful job.
