If not for you, this book would still be a word document on my computer. Thanks for helping me get it into the world.

Peter Diamond, author, Amplify Your Career and Life

Once again, I am impressed by your expertise and excellence in editing. But I was more impressed by how you engaged the story from the inside and divined additions that would strengthen it overall. My book is much better as a result.

Don Beere, author, Blue Sky, Deadly Secrets

I thank my Lord it was you who took charge of my work. It has been a wonderful experience, extremely educational, and eye-opening.
