Cautionary Tales About Working With a Grammarwitch

We worked together on my picture book The Meatshower and it was an absolute pleasure the entire time. I deeply appreciated her dedication to keeping the spirit of my writing intact while helping me to refine and clean my manuscript. She was responsive, encouraging, and took an honest interest making my work as good as it could be. I look forward to working with her again. (www.thepastandthecurious.com)

Lori Patrick edits every one of my manuscripts before it goes to the publisher. Whether you want a simple proofread, fact checking, line editing, or comprehensive copy editing, I can tell you from experience she's the best. You can depend on her to make your manuscript say what you mean for it to say. She’s thorough, insightful and dependable. Frankly, I think she’s a better writer than I am, but don’t tell her I said that. (www.dalecramer.com)

You've been a godsend in building my business, giving me confidence for my book projects in a no-nonsense, reliable way. It goes beyond the sterile, clinical, unimaginative world of copyediting found in news services. The passion for your work, curiosity for the subject, the questions you ask with the tenacity of an investigative reporter have proven you are a real problem solver in making sure we are getting it right–right down to the “right word.” Somewhere I read, “God is in the details,” and so it is with the Grammarwitch.

As a publisher, I’ve worked with a lot of editors: too many of them. When it comes to editing my work, I want Lori. Lori is like a warm, snuggly blanket of safety on a cold winter’s night. Lori helps me dress my baby up nice and pretty before sending it out into the world. She catches those horribly embarrassing typos we all make, and she catches the little inconsistencies that can slip in. She doesn’t edit HER voice into MY work. She makes MY voice sound the way I want it to. I can’t imagine a better editor. (www.heartallybooks.com)

Simply put, Lori is an outstanding editor. Lori and I have worked together on a number of very complicated book projects over the last several years and I have found that her command of her profession, attention to detail, and admirable work ethic combine to create the best kind of collaborator. Without question, if you enlist the aid of the Grammarwitch you will be glad that you did because her editorial abilities set her a level above her peers. (www.21skyedesign.com)
