“David’s thoughtful and incisive editing work, including deep thematic and structural guidance lifted my manuscript from a teetering new draft to a polished, well-developed one. David is the perfect editor who lasers in on areas that need clarification and development, but is also respectful of the author’s intentions. He’s encouraging and supportive, and also knows how to get the author to be her best self for her best work.”

“I found a lot of value in David’s editorial services. The written feedback he delivered was thorough and insightful. When we talked about my manuscript over the phone it was clear he’d read it closely and cared about the characters. Rather than giving me prescriptive advice, David asked smart questions and made keen observations that helped me gain new insight into my work.”
