I feel I will be a much better writer in all my future works because of the dedication that Patrice shared with me in completing my book. I will certainly pursue Patrice’s editing services in the future and would highly recommend her to anyone seeking a thorough, flexible and understanding editor. You will get so much more than just editing. The consulting Patrice provides while editing is above and beyond what you pay for.
