Raves

Does this rear view page make me look fat?
It does make me proud and inspired to review, in retrospect, the accomplishments of my clients and students. Here in their words and links, are results, achievements and contributions they’ve made.

Success is sweetest when shared

Helena: Writer

I really appreciate your help.  I had a number of people review my book, but it was your edits that took it from an amateur to professional manuscript.  I’m still amazed at how many corrections you found.  My co-author and I had reviewed the book more than dozen times cover to cover.  We had five outside reviewers check it for us and a professional proofreader.  After all that, we gave it to you and you made 900+ corrections in the manuscript.  I can’t thank you enough.

“What a splendid article!  Thank you.  It spread round the world.”
Jo Blackmore ( GIP ) granvilleislandpublishing.com

Besides your profound knowledge of writing, I also appreciate your personality and your persistence to your career. We share something in common, female, mother of daughter(s), divorced and seeking our own careers. But you are a successful writer, I just have had a starting of my “new career” in a “new” place. I have a long and tough way to go, and I am ready for it. Your lecture has inspired me. I think that I can do something.

Have a great weekend.
Regards.

Peace and Light,

Helena,

You are very nice, so soft spoken, and very interesting.  I love your English expressions.

Thanks and I hope to hear from you soon. God Bless!
