What Authors Say
Client Testimonials
I had a full edit done by Sara and she did an amazing job! She was helpful in pointing out plot holes and helping me make the story flow better with her suggestions.
She was very detail-oriented when it came to the fine tuning of the manuscript. I have read this story many times before she got ahold of it and she was able to find the mistakes I missed. Her prices are very reasonable for authors on a budget like myself. I would highly recommend Sara to others.
Sara edited my current book. Her developmental edit suggestions caught inconsistencies. Because of her knowledge of historical romance, she pointed out words which were too modern and provided ideas on how to improve the depth of character development on a pivotal character.
I was so pleased with the developmental edit that I hired her as my line editor. This edit pass was thorough. It caught the normal punctuation and typos and made paragraphing suggestions which improved the impact of important passages.
Sara is sensitive and conscious in her editing. I definitely recommend her.
Sara has a wonderful sense of story and an eye for detail. She's also shone a spotlight on verbal tics I didn't know I had, thus helping strengthen my writing. What's more, she was able to accommodate my ridiculous time constraints. I highly recommend her.
Sara is wonderful to work with, and she did a thorough job on my manuscript. Her insight is spot-on. I highly recommend her services!
