Testimonials:
“Sharon went way beyond my expectations on what I was expecting. She was always in communication with me throughout the process. She gave me great insight on how I should fix things to make my story worthy to publish. I will definitely hire her again.”
~ Tracy Agnelli
“Sharon’s review of my book was so helpful and thorough! She was very professional and gave me weekly updates while she read and compiled her feedback. She pointed out a lot of things that helped me make sense of other beta readers’ feedback, as well as a number of things I hadn’t considered yet.
I’m going into my revisions really well-prepared now, and I’d recommend Sharon to anyone as a book coach.”
–Anna Read
“Working with Sharon was a pleasure in every way. Her feedback on my novel was invaluable: Insightful and detailed. Her inline comments, summary comments, and in-person comments were worth every penny. Plus, she is very tactful.”
-Bob Hodgman, Author of Winter’s Turn and The Dark
