“I had a wonderful experience with Debra. At the very beginning she reached out with a phone call. As I shopped around, she was my only personal contact. The choice was easy. She was very supportive to me as a new author with little experience. Her passion and expertise were evident as we worked through the process of editing my book.

I am amazed how quickly Debra worked. She always got back to me within a day or two and thankfully was honest about my work. I loved her phrase, ‘Not sure what you are going for here.’ I will hire her to edit all other books going forward. I am so impressed with her professionalism and kindness to new authors. “

“Debra knew how important this book was to me—and treated it with just the right blend of delicate guidance, occasional praise when she sensed I needed it, and pure old-fashioned editor savvy. She’s like a great coach that knows just how to get the most out of the prose—and the writer.”
