| "After a pile of
rejections on Secret's Shadow, first in a
psychological mystery series, I decided I needed
the help of a professional editor to figure out
what I was doing wrong. Chris provided the kind
of developmental editing that illuminated my blind
spots and enabled me to greatly improve my craft.
Beyond giving me exactly what I needed, she provided
tons of support and encouragement. For anyone who
wants to improve his or her writing skills, I recommend
Chris any day." —Alex Matthews, Cassidy

"I
never had an editor before
who treated me as a colleague
and offered input regarding
the subject and readability.
In the past I have only had an editor who worked
on my
grammar. Chris, I want you
to be all that you can be
and show me how to be a
better author." —Steve Brown, Susan
