Review from the owner of Business Skills for Coaches
Gwen has been my editor for my website and blog for over a year. Not only is she a talented editor, she is beyond dependable and her turn-around time feels almost immediate. I highly recommend Gwen to anyone who needs a great copywriter.

Review for website article rewrites
Gwen is wonderful to work with. She constantly exceeds my expectations, always delivers on schedule and very often before the deadline. She is very keen to find out more about the subject and in order to improve her work, she goes out of her way to carry out her own research.

Review from the co-author of
SCD Lifestyle – Surviving to Thriving: How to Start the Specific Carbohydrate Diet in 24 Hours and Survive the First 90 Days and Beyond
Gwen was extremely professional, easy to work with and turned around an edit on an ebook within an extremely tight time frame. She helped readability and flow of the book tremendously. She went above and beyond by reading a book on our topic before editing the book. If we ever need another editor she will be our first call.

Review from the coordinator of Creating Amazement: The O’Meara Process “at Work”
Outstanding work! Gwen took a bunch of interview transcripts and turned them into a readable product. Then she went beyond scope to help edit some additional pieces of the product. She is detail oriented, extremely professional, and a master of grammar. She also has a great ear/eye for good writing and thus a fine editor/writer. I highly recommend her and will use her services again!

Review from the author of The Second Coming, a novel
Gwen did a fantastic job, working and meticulously editing a 73,000 word novel. Her keen eyes caught and fixed grammar and spelling errors but, more importantly, subtle plot irregularities while keeping the author’s voice and story strong. Her quality of work, professionalism, and flexibility are unmatched. If I ever need an editor again, rest assured she will be my first choice.

Review from the author of Outstanding You (her first job as a professional editor!)
Gwen exceeded my every expectation. From the very first communication, her first priority was my readers. This is what she was ultimately hired for – and she executed flawlessly. Not only did she do a spectacular job, taking the book to the next level and beyond, but she did it quickly, with honest, quality feedback and fast communication. I appreciated her willingness to share her thoughts while not taking away from the essence of the subject matter. Currently, I have two jobs, one is in an office, managing a creative staff, the other is developing as an author. It’s quite common for me to provide feedback to creative people and I understand the sensitive nature of recommending changes to people who care passionately about their work. So does Gwen. She quickly built a relationship between the two of us that allowed her to honestly express her thoughts while making changes that improved the book. Gwen noticed the little and big issues in my manuscript. She quickly re-structured certain areas to make the book more efficient and effective, while maintaining the creative aspects. Most importantly, this book is about fitness and the proper terminology and order of my processes/systems is obviously critical to the success of my clients. Gwen took great care in making sure not to diminish the technical side of my coaching, yet she was able to make it flow better. On the technical side, Gwen did a fantastic job. She found mistakes and offered quality suggestions that made more sense and fit the book well. Rather than adding "flowery" words, she fortified the terms while keeping my style front and center. It was as if she was on my team from the very start, rather than someone who stepped in at the end. I highly recommend Gwen for your editing needs. Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact me anytime at ron@abettafit.com. Thank you very much Gwen, I anticipate great things from this book and many more to come for the both of us!”
