★★★★★ "I recently completed a memoir about my life with my late husband. Emotionally, it was difficult for me to write, and as a result I tended to pack too much information into parts of the story where it really didn't belong. I knew I needed help straightening it out and asked a well-known book consultant for a recommendation of a good editor. She suggested that I talk with Alice Douthwaite of Paper-free Editing.

I did that and soon felt very comfortable with Alice. She and I have now worked through two separate drafts of my manuscript. Each pass greatly improved the text. She deserves an immense amount of credit for the ultimate quality and readability of my forthcoming book, BETTING ON BERNIE, A MEMOIR OF A MARRIAGE.

Over the coming year, I plan to write a novel. When the time comes, I'll call again on Alice. I highly recommend her to other authors, too."
