Susan is one of the best editors I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with on my novels, short stories and queries. She is smart, detail-oriented, solution-focused, and passionate about her writing projects. Susan also honors her deadlines and offers great suggestions and solutions, and she tells you what she loves about your story so you know what is working! She also helps writers find the bits that need a bit of polishing and she works with writers to make the story sing.

And what I love too is how Susan is a great sounding board. She listens, really listens, so she can help solve those story or plot or character problems that keep banging about in a writer’s head.

Silencing that noise so one can move forward and finish the story makes her a five-star editor for me!

Being a published author, in the past I have worked with several types of editors. Now I am writing another book, and working with Susan, I have found her to be a wonderful editor and beta reader. She has an eye for details that can improve and even transform an author’s work. She has a talent for approaching a book from a reader’s point of view. to make the book a more compelling read. Susan has given me important ideas and suggestions beyond what most editors would and I am grateful.
