Tim Ruel: “Bryony went above and beyond in editing my first book. She provided meticulous fact-checking that prevented many errors, and she put in a lot of time to explain changes as well as improve the characters. She found problems I hadn’t thought of and she came up with useful solutions. And after she returned the edited manuscript, she continued assisting and providing wise guidance while I made revisions. She was devoted to improving the book, but most importantly, she did not hold back on sharing concerns and she didn’t pretend things were fine to soothe my ego. Her goal was to improve the book with solid criticism, not to appease the client. Hiring Bryony is money well spent.”
