What people are saying about Linda Verde Editing 

“I really enjoyed working with Linda. Her invaluable insights on how to get an intriguing story to unfold with good pacing helped me craft two novels I am pleased with. She comes to a project with an abundance of experience and a gentle manner in her critique. I anticipate working with Linda when I draft the next books in the series.

Despite being in the midst of a situation, Linda is able to step back and make a clear appraisal of what is going on and what needs to be done.

Retired Secondary School Teacher and Executive Member, Alzheimer's Society

Linda has worked with me on several writing projects and although she can generate great ideas, even more I value her ability to support someone else’s idea and make it come alive.

I am a new author in the genre of young adult urban fantasy. Linda has assisted me in editing my debut novel. I appreciate our collaborative approach and teamwork. Linda possesses a deep understanding of my writing methods and has played a crucial role in refining my manuscript. I had a positive experience working with her and plan to engage her services in the future.

“I had the opportunity to work with Linda on a dissertation paper for my Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) program. She was professional, on time, and courteous. I truly appreciated her attention to details and feed back to improve my professional writing skill. She also gave me a final review after I had a chance to read through and make necessary changes, which was really helpful. As I continue pursuing higher education in nursing (I am currently in my first year of the PhD program), I will definitely reach out to her in the future for editing help with my papers.

Thank you, Linda, for all you do to help ease my nerves with writing and make me feel more confident in producing a well written scientific literary work.”

Linda is effortlessly articulate in an age when this manner of communicating is becoming rare.

What is unique about working with Linda as an editor is the pleasure and ease of making my book the best it can be. When you’ve spent countless hours writing a book, you want an editor to make this final part of the process feel like the final polish of a diamond. Linda does exactly that. I was always excited to see her edits, and appreciative of her ability to work out what I was trying to say – and express it in a way that could be understood by the reader. It was an entirely pleasurable experience and she took great care and maintained my vision through to completion.

Linda’s use of my language and my turn of phrase was so important to me. She edits in a way that sounds like me and feels like me only with more clarity and easier readability. This to me is the most important part of Linda’s gift – she brings your voice front and centre and makes it crystal clear to read and understand.

I would work with her again, without hesitation. Linda has already edited 2 books for me and I am sure of more in the future

Tanya Davies

Linda did a masterful job of editing my thesis. This was my first time using an editor and I had a very tight timeline. Linda’s professionalism and reliability coupled with her prompt responses were a godsend. She not only corrected my grammar, spelling, verb tense, spelling etc., she also caught inconsistencies and inaccuracies I had overlooked. She is a stickler for detail. It was also obvious that she took the time to really read my paper and made excellent suggestions on rewording for clarity and asked relevant questions regarding missing information. She is the ideal person to turn to for any editing projects.
