I’ve been working with Chelsey Clammer for nearly ten years now, in classes, one-on-one workshops, and manuscript editing. She is highly skilled and very generous, two qualities that are rare in writing instructors. Moreover, her guidance has allowed my writing to grow and change in ways I couldn’t anticipate.
Writing is often lonely work, work that can lose momentum too easily. Chelsey’s mentorship and editing skills help me to keep my writing practice consistent and productive, leading to tremendous personal satisfaction as well as rewarding publications. -Lori White
Every writer should be lucky enough to have an editor like Chelsey Clammer in their corner. She has a knack for getting to the heart of the story you’re trying to tell and then queries its urgency, its layered nuances. In her developmental critiques, I always feel she respects the fine boundary between my vision and her literary opinion. I’ll read one of her feedback suggestions and often I’ll think, Now why didn’t I think of that? I often rely on Chelsey’s thorough and detailed critiques before subbing or when a piece gets rejected too many times. For the satisfaction of seeing many of my personal essays in print, I have Chelsey to thank. -Linda Petrucelli
Chelsey Clammer is a whip-smart editor with a keen eye for shaping your work into its best possible form and finding the heart of the piece. Working with her is a dream, and you really have a writing partner and mentor on your side. Chelsey’s edited both my fiction and nonfiction, and she has the rare ability to make you feel good about your writing while being constructive. There will be aha moments! Before I submit to a journal or contest, I’ll run my manuscript by Chelsey. Nearly every piece I’ve written in her workshops has been published! Chelsey will help make your work powerful and publishable. -Angela Mackintosh
