multi-published authors of Go Teen Writers: How to Turn Your First Draft into a Published BookRachelle has a sharp eye and kind heart, which makes her an excellent proofreader. She was very easy to work with and met our tight deadline with no problems. Next time we need proofreading, we’ll definitely ask Rachelle!

Rachelle offers suggestions for changing things to improve your writing, finds those missing commas you forgot to look for, and mentions when she really likes something. She also offers reasonable prices.

Rachelle was a joy to work with! As a new and upcoming author, it can be a struggle to find affordable editing services that deliver the quality you'd expect from a professional. But Rachelle did just that! I'm so thankful she was recommended to me. I felt totally comfortable handing my manuscript over to her. I will be recommending Rachelle's services to all my author friends!

I loved working with Rachelle. She was sharp, fast, clear in her notes, and covered everything from little typos to bigger issues that would have been seriously embarrassing had we missed them and gone to print. There’s no doubt in my mind that I’ll be using her editorial expertise on my next project.

It's been an amazing experience to have Rachelle work her magic on my blog posts. She refines my sentences and paragraphs into cohesive thoughts that are 10x better than before, and her feedback regarding intent and flow are invaluable! Already, Rachelle has saved me so much time editing my own work.
Joanne Bischof
I’m so blessed to have worked with Rachelle! Her education shines in the way she combed through my story with care. Rachelle expertly balances critique with encouragement in a way that shows her heart for writers…and their future readers. Her engagement in my character’s lives and plight was only a testament of her commitment to the projects she takes on. Having her eyes on my manuscript not only gave me great ideas for sharpening up the details, but it also spurred me forward.
Gretchen Louise
Mentoring Digital WordsmithsRachelle is one of those people that I always want to be the first to read every blog post I write, every email sequence I draft. Not only is she quick to graciously notify me of the typos or stylistic inconsistencies she finds, but she is kind enough to tell me when I could explain something better or make a sentence read more smoothly. And even though Rachelle knows the grammar rules, she knows there is always a time and place to break them. I'm grateful for her attention to detail and her friendly editing style!
Anne Mateer
