Anna and I had a serendipitous encounter which led to her proofreading my memoirs. She is a wonderful person to work with.
Self-publishing author
I wrote a manual on sports and exercise nutrition to help my clients. For me to turn the manual Into the high quality I was reaching for I needed a professional editor/proofreader. I discovered Anna online and seeing that she was a dietitian I thought she would be a good choice to help me with the perfection I was looking for.
Anna did an amazing job, her touch made exceeded my expectations of the manual. Sometimes I can’t believe I actually wrote it but it was Anna’s alterations that made it readable and flow so well.
We had to go back and forth with the manual a few times and Anna made this so easy. I can honestly say that in my 15 years of running a business I don’t ever recall someone being so consistently super quick at responding!
Anna also gave me lots of other advice in regards to getting the best out of my manual.
Can’t recommend her highly enough; thanks, Anna!
