Testimonials

Emma Lockley of EAL Editorial Services worked on my book, Contemplating Comedy published by the Conrad Press in 2020. She did a meticulous job producing the index and gave the text of the book a general edit. I was very happy with the professionalism and quality of her work, which came at a very reasonable price and was accompanied by punctual and pleasant communication. I would not hesitate to recommend her.
