<p>Hey @SgtDonut, </p>

<p>I’m new on CC, and may not be old, but I’m constantly being asked by my senior friends to edit their essays, and am rather good at at.</p>

<p>Background: I’ve won 2 gold medals at the national level of the Scholastic Art and Writing awards. One was a personal reflection, and the other was a short story.</p>

<p>I’d love to help you out, and I wish you the best!</p>
