I have nothing but praise for Gary’s ability to convert a mess of writing into a cohesive and coherent text accessible to a wide range of audiences. Even on topics new to him, Gary dug in to ensure that he grasped the material so that his edits made sense. I told him repeatedly that he should be listed as a co-author on some of my pieces, because he was every bit as involved and dedicated to the work as I was. Gary’s kindness and humor also helped, especially when I was feeling frustrated. Anyone who chooses to work with Gary will be in great hands!

I look back with pride and gratitude at the work I did as an author, with Gary’s help as an editor. He always kept his eye on the ball: making my writing and that of our colleagues ever clearer to an audience reading about any given topic for the first time. Gary’s long experience as a writer himself, his training in editing, and his friendly, forthright manner all made collaborating with him satisfying and enjoyable.

I’ve known and worked with Gary for over twenty years, and I can testify to his intelligence, integrity, scrupulous attention to detail, and skill at enhancing and clarifying a writer’s content without suppressing the writer’s voice.  Along with these indispensable qualities, Gary brings deep experience in project management to any editorial task, with inevitably excellent and timely results.

“Gary’s keen editorial insights went beyond correcting grammar and punctuation; he delved deeply into the nuances of my children’s book, offering suggestions that  improved its flow and enhanced its emotional resonance. He respected my voice and vision, even as he enhanced the manuscript with his expert touch. Every word, sentence, and paragraph underwent a meticulous review, resulting in a manuscript that was polished to perfection. I wholeheartedly endorse his services to any author looking to elevate their work to the highest standard!”
