Barbara McNichol Editorial Services

Barbara, you are a professional editor of nonfiction. You could make any story a good one. I have to tell you I have been so impressed and touched at the same time with your editing. It really seems you “get” my story. You certainly have helped me. Thank you again.

Barbara, I am grateful your hard work on my Expert Report for the GCNA case. Your impeccable ability to turn run-on sentences into shorter, more understandable ones is sheer brilliance! You are amazing.

Barbara is not only a skilled editor, but also a collaborative partner who is completely committed to her authors’ success. Going beyond the technical needs of my manuscript, she took time to understand the subject matter, guiding me to speak clearly to the reader’s heart. I am truly grateful to Barbara for helping my dream of publication become a reality.

Working with Barbara McNichol is hitting the trifecta! New to publishing, I didn’t know what to expect and it was a delightful experience. From our initial conversation, Barbara was communicative, concise, and creative with her suggestions. I knew immediately my book was in the hands of a pro who only wanted my success.

Your suggestions were great and there’s absolutely no doubt in my mind this book wouldn’t be half as good without your editorial work. You were very thorough. From the bottom of my heart, thank you, Barbara.

Barbara is a courteous, professional editor. She provides fast and clear communication and an overall positive experience.

During our meeting, he offered anecdotes he picked up in the book that are helping him get a new lease on his business. I was ecstatic! Writing is an essential skill for the work I do, but it has always intimidated me. This quandary came to a head while writing On Course. I was extremely fortunate to find the best editor possible, Barbara McN…

I am now ordering bumper-stickers: “I LOVE MY EDITOR!” You have taken raw, curt diary entries and smoothed them out and/or asked me to provide better closes. Barbara, I am becoming your biggest fan!

I am supremely happy with the result of my memoir published by Dudley Court Press. A special thanks to Barbara, my editor. Her professionalism was over the top.
