Heather Criswell, Kid Whisperer and coauthor, How to Raise a Happy Child (and be happy too)
I have to be honest ... I was more than hesitant ... I was TERRIFIED to go through the editing process when we finished our manuscript! Fortunately, my dear friend was introduced to Joanne and knew immediately that she would be a great match for us. Joanne took the time to meet with us in person. She presented a number of options for us, gave her own suggestions, listened to our needs, and most of all gave me peace of mind. I was so worried that she would change our work and we would lose our voice. The exact opposite happened! Joanne was able to clarify, add to, and enhance our work beyond my imagination. She had the challenge to work with and edit two very different authors in the same manuscript. SHE DID IT! The icing on the cake was her BEAUTIFUL layout for our book. Joanne has an amazing gift with words and design. I am so thankful for her “chance” meeting with my friend. I am so thankful for her wise insights and incredible eye. I am so proud of this book, and words will never express my gratitude for Joanne and her gifts to this planet!
