I know that she read through my ms in detail because she gave me specific comments that could improve it in several instances and also she went beyond and flagged a couple of inconsistencies that had slipped through previous rounds...

    Allison was fantastic! She came highly recommended and delivered on all fronts. This was my first edit with a professional and she walked me through the entire process (even my novice questions). She communicated clearly on the dates and what to expect. I will definitely utilize Allison on my future books and works hands down.
