“Thank you so much for your excellent read and detailed, comprehensive notes. I made another copy of the manuscript today and cut everything you suggested. Felt like I was waving a magic wand over it. Your editing style is very helpful and educational. My own critical eye is sharper with your example.”

"...and while I did not achieve every goal I had set for myself and was beating myself up over it, Valerie put together a list of my wins over the past quarter and helped me see that indeed, I had accomplished quite a lot! I'm looking at my next quarter with renewed energy and positivity thanks to Valerie's help and would recommend her to anyone seeking support, accountability, AND the practical steps to take to make things happen. Valerie goes above and beyond to give value. You'll be happy you worked with her!”
