    Working with Waverly honestly changed everything for me. As a new author, I had a really bad experience with someone else before, and it made me nervous about trusting another editor. But from the start, Waverly made me feel comfortable and understood. She really took the time to go through my work...

    Working with Waverly was a pleasure. She went above and beyond to assure that my beloved Memoir was delivered in format for which I requested. Waverly was extremely patient and kind as we navigated through the many challenges my Memoir presented. She remained pleasant to work with and she always responded...

    After attempting to edit this manuscript on my own, I decided to seek Waverly assistance. Someone who understands this process better than I do. All I can say is "finally!" Finally found someone who understands the tone, style, and voice we were looking for. I hope you are prepared. I will definitely use this service in the future. Thank you, Waverly
