Testimonial
“You were the cornerstone of success for Motivational
Leaders. The editing was innovative, creative, and technically perfect.
You have the gift to enhance without changing the meaning, correct without
detracting, clarify while simplifying and supplement with wisdom and insight.
— Vilis Ozols, Ozols Business Group
Your Expert Editing Team
Expert editing means more than ferreting out grammar gremlins and word trippers.
Having a professionally edited nonfiction book rewards you with—
a powerful product that clearly presents your ideas,
a strengthened reputation as an author, speaker, and expert,
a means to command higher fees and attract profitable opportunities.
Since 1994, I’ve edited or ghostwritten award-winning books including Robert Shemin’s How Come That Idiot’s Rich and I’m Not?, which reached #3 on The New York Times best-seller list.
In my career, I’ve worked in newspapers, PR firms, and corporate communications. Today, I specialize in working with authors and speakers, many who belong to the National Speakers Association.
This team of experts adds various talents to the BME mix. Please meet them below. We look forward to working with you!
