Bob McGee

Olivia is a true professional, and a top notch editor. She was prompt and efficient with amazing people skills. Olivia had a sixth sense for discovering details in my writing I didn't imagine could exist. She also had an eye for big picture issues and solved them for me. This was my first time being edited, and Olivia was polite and patient, addressing all my questions and concerns before, during, and after each stage of the edit. She cared for my manuscript as if it was her own. Her one focus was making my book better, and the final copy I received was a polished gem. I highly recommend Olivia as an editor.

Zara Thatcher

Working with Olivia has been a joy! From the initial Reader’s Report to the final edit, Olivia offers a gentle hand to authors, explaining the best way to improve their book with fantastic results. She is always there to support authors and answer questions; an author couldn’t be in better hands.

Olivia was in charge of my first ever book 5 Simple Steps to Releasing the Real You. I couldn’t have fallen in better hands. She outlined the time line for the project from 1st draft to publishing date. Then together we worked on making this 1sr draft into a real book that was easy to read, correct to read and well received by my readership. Always there to answer questions and provide support. The best editor one can dream of when working on a book you’re passionate about.
