Gregg Starbuck

Author of Spiritual Battles and Warfare

"Working with Vanessa was a privilege.
I needed a professional with proofreading and editing expertise. I was a first-time author and Vanessa was perfect for me. I will definitely work with her on my next book."

Harry Stephen Hager

Author of Sharper Eyes of Faith

"When I wrote my first book and sent it to Vanessa for editing, I had no idea how much it would feel like sending my firstborn off to college.

I need not have worried! Vanessa was the highly skilled editor I had hoped for, making suggestions for changing certain wording, constructing a proper bibliography, and generally shepherding me through the process.

At the same time, she respected my wishes when I had strong feelings about not making changes. I highly recommend Vanessa and hope to use her again in the future."

Sarah Holley

Author of Jesus the Ultimate Ladies' Man

"I hired Vanessa to edit my book, Jesus, the Ultimate Ladies’ Man. From start to finish, the experience was professional, efficient, and exceeded my expectations.

Communication with Vanessa was effortless. She was responsive, open to feedback, and willing to answer any questions I had about the editing process. Her proactive approach to clarifying any uncertainties demonstrated her commitment to ensuring my satisfaction as a client.

Since my book is nonfiction, it was important that Vanessa have a high level of attention to detail and fact-checking. She excelled at both. And I’m thankful she has an eye for the nit-picky because of the sheer number of endnotes in my book.

Even after she’d completed the editing—and while it was in the hands of the book designer—Vanessa was willing to answer questions and provide additional editing. Her commitment to the excellence of my book was evident.

I wholeheartedly recommend Vanessa to anyone in need of editing services. I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity to work with her and look forward to working together again in the future."
