“Elizabeth’s editing skills are truly exceptional. Her perceptive comments and ability to understand my vision for the story help me to trust my voice and instincts. Her suggestions are always spot-on and help to elevate my manuscripts. I also appreciate the support she provides after every edit—answering questions and serving as a springboard for ideas. I highly recommend her services to any author looking to take their work to the next level.” — Ryan Rivers
“Writing a novel is hard work and not for the faint of heart. However, with Elizabeth on your team you can rest assured that your work has been examined and dissected carefully by a professional of the highest order. I have received many compliments on my ‘fine writing,’ and I know these compliments are a direct result of Elizabeth’s magic touch. You’ll not find a more gifted editor.”
I loved working with Jude S. Walko on The Unhallowed Horseman, a contemporary reimagining of the American classic “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow.” Set against the backdrop of a seemingly peaceful, picturesque American small town with an iconic past, the story follows Vincent, a distraught and troubled high schooler, and his descent into the demons that plague his mind.
Today is the start of Banned Books Week.
“Banned Books Week (BBW) is an annual event celebrating the freedom to read and the importance of the First Amendment. Held during the last week of September, BBW highlights the benefits of free and open access to information while drawing attention to the harms of censorship by spotlighting actual or attempted banning of books across the United States.
“I’ve worked on two manuscripts with Elizabeth, both of which were picked up by publishers. With her legal background and editing skills, Elizabeth is super sharp and astute. Not only will she correct your copy to the standard, but her development skills will catch things you didn’t notice. She’ll let you know what needs to be corrected, offer suggestions for change, and sensibly question details so that the story sounds logical, without distorting your writer’s voice. Take my word for it, you’re in safe hands.” — Khaled Talib
“Whether you’re putting your stuff out there on your own or sending it out into the world of agents and publishers, you need to have your work as close to perfect as humanly possible. I’ve worked with Elizabeth on over a dozen published books. Each time, I found her to be extremely professional, timely and she provided a great knowledge of the genre of crime fiction, as well as fixed my grammatical travesties. I could go with any number of people to correct my spelling, but Elizabeth gives my writing a bit more that I feel really helps push it to its final stage.” — Mike McCrary
