Testimonials:

“Nicole has been an outstanding editor.  Her critique letter has been immensely helpful, with astute observations covering everything from setting and structure to character development and pacing.  I was particularly grateful for her suggestion on how best to wrap up a theme.  She also is a great line editor.  My manuscript has benefited greatly from her insights and I would highly recommend her to any writer, no matter the stage of the work.” - Natalie Coburn
