Client Comments - Page 2

I spent a few weeks trying to find a professional and compatible editor. I based my choice upon a few criteria, timeliness, professionalism, and compatibility.

In all three criteria, your service proved superior. Your response to my initial query, all subsequent communications, and delivery of the final product was rapid. Your professionalism was appreciated and respected. Most importantly, I had a strong sense of compatibility with the editor you provided, Shellie Hurrle.

Of the seven editors I queried, Shellie provided the best sample. This was augmented, of course, by the written critique she also provided. I must mention that none of the other editors provided critiques in addition to a writing sample

As you promised, I was highly satisfied with the final edit of my manuscript. Shellie has an uncanny ability to analyze and understand my needs, and was able to help me improve the flow of my novel. She certainly does have a flair for words!

Finally, although I did not base my choice on the cost of the service, I must relay that your price quote was lower than many of the quotes I received. This wasn't a primary reason for my choice, but I'm sure a lot of people are constrained by this issue.

Thank you again for providing this service. It is rare these days to receive even minimal expectations without a hitch. In this case, your service outweighed my expectations (which are high!). I will be use you in the future, and I hope my testimony convinces others to benefit from your service as well. Feel free to have potential customers send me a note.

I highly recommend A-1 Editing Service, LLC. As a first time novelist, I was nervous about having a professional review my work. But with A-1 Editing, the process was painless. I was treated with the utmost professionalism and respect. Nicole helped me improve my technique while never interfering with my unique voice. The cost was reasonable, and the critique invaluable.

I can honestly say that I am a better writer today because of my association with A-1 Editing Service, LLC. As a matter of fact, I have recently contacted Nicole about editing my second novel.

Sincerely,
Margaret A. Helms

I just wanted to thank you for the wonderful job you did assisting me with my Jack Russell book, The Idiot's Guide to Jack Russell Terriers. I have just learned from the publisher that it will be on the shelves March 15, two weeks early, in part because of the finished product that I was able to provide to them with your help. My editor at Howell Book House commented on how polished the manuscript was and how few changes the book needed in order for it to go to print.
Thanks so much for your input, encouragement and assistance. I couldn't have done it without you!

Sincerely,
Debbie Britt-Hay

I am a writer and needed help with my books. I asked Nicole to preview each of them and offer suggestions for improvement. She was quick to respond and did high-quality work for me. I couldn't be more pleased with her efforts on my behalf in getting my titles ready for presentation to agents and publishers.
Please feel free to contact me via e-mail at gcf@pacifier.com for further information if you so desire, as Nicole and her editors do honest, quick, and professional editing for any author desiring a good job at a reasonable price, prior to presenting their work to an agent or publisher.

Editing a book should not be so enjoyable, but my two editors, Nicole Bentley and Louise Watson, provided discerning vision, careful editing, valuable suggestions, and clever changes, all of which made my book 'Round the World Without Reservation(s), a much-improved book -- congenial, collegial, considerate -- but still with a sharp eye to the best results. What more can one ask of editors? I highly recommend their service.
