Verified reviews from clients they have worked with
"Elizabeth was instrumental in helping me create a compelling memoir proposal. She quickly grasped the essence of my draft, and demonstrated a genuine interest in my ideas while providing valuable feedback to enhance the narrative and writing. Her thoroughness and insightfulness were invaluable, and together we crafted a proposal that secured literary representation and, ultimately, a publisher. I strongly recommend Elizabeth to any writer seeking professional assistance with their book proposals."
“The qualities that make Elizabeth such an exceptional translator and editor are the same ones that make her such a fascinating and engaging dinner companion—her boundless curiosity, omnivorous knowledge, and remarkable capacity to draw out, connect with, and articulate thoughts and ideas in a unique and coherent way. She brings a rich and varied lifetime of thought and experience to every project she touches, and her professionalism and unflappable calm and “can do” attitude creates the kind of atmosphere that nurtures creativity and promotes the best kind of collaboration.”
