Thanks very much for your excellent editing work. While our extensive exchange of e-mail messages concerning details in the text may have been a bit vexatious to you, your patience and editing skills have paid off handsomely.

Joanne’s spirit, individualism, creativity, patience, and organization are the perfect ingredients for my book! As a first-time author with no experience, Joanne Shwed guided me every step of the way. I felt supported and safe with her professional objectivity, which left the space for my creativity to flourish. I highly recommend Joanne to any author at any stage in the game. Thank you, Joanne!

Dinah Sanders, Discardia: More Life, Less Stuff

Joanne exceeded my high expectations in the service she provided and her flexibility in using a new workflow to accommodate my maintaining a master copy of my manuscript in Scrivener. This was my first experience working with an editor on a work of over 50 pages and I was very pleased with the outcome. My book was significantly the better for her deft touch and I believe this is leading directly to better reviews and more sales. The icing on the cake is how pleasant to work with she is.

Kenetia Lee, Fearless Beauty: A Woman’s Guide to Living Bold, Beautiful and Free

Joanne is absolutely amazing. I have never spent better money. She gave me great feedback every step of the way and made my words sing on paper. I am forever grateful for her skill of editing, which truly helped me feel confident in my own writing. It was through her that I could actually hear my own voice. She is a resource that I will continuously use.
