TED Client Testimonials
"When you think you've written a most clever thing, what do you do when you're told you can make it even better? I didn't want to cut, rewrite, and revise. I didn't want to imagine up another snappy chapter ending. But I cut, and imagined, and rewrote, and cut, and revised. I even have a new document titled "Cut Chapters that Kill Me" (just because I couldn't trash them). But here's the thing: While Peter Gelfan guided me down the path to write more like a professional and introduced me to the world of solid plots, Renni Browne and Shannon Roberts' annotated editing turned me into an honest recorder of my characters' voices and behaviors. That's way better than just being a clever writer. I think that any writer who doesn't use an intelligent editor(s) won't ever know how good their work might be." Charlene Dietz Torreon, NM |
