Melissa knocks it out of the park again, this time with an activity book for boys ages 8-12, my first activity book for children.

This is my second murder mystery word search book that Melissa worked on. She was a seasoned pro this go-around regarding the game mechanics and my expectations for verifying all the text and puzzles--a pleasure when you're the author and don't want to repeat the proofreading requirements in detail....

Melissa went above and beyond with my manuscript. She delivered more than a week ahead of her projected delivery date, and her feedback was closer to a light copy edit than a simple proofread. Melissa is also a delight to work with. She is polite, responsive, and respectful. I couldn't recommend her more.

Melissa is the only editor I fully trust with my manuscripts. Her eagle eyed and compassionate understanding of the topics I tackle are both greatly appreciated and wow, I always walk away feeling seen, supported and more confident in my work. I can't thank or recommend Melissa enough!
