    Libby James really guided us through the editing process in an orderly, understandable manner. Excellent editor to work with on my novella! I appreciated how spot-on her comments were, ringing true in a critique that varied from the smaller word to the larger context. I recommend her for any writer,...

    Libby goes beyond editing and offers deeper insight into characters, their inconsistencies in actions and dialogue. She helps bring these to light so they can be corrected. Very thorough in that area, as well as offering feedback on word choice, theme, and plot. She even gave advice on marketing the manuscript. Libby is a super editor.
