Testimonials
"It has been a privilege to work with Laura Maisano. She is a top notched professional editor, and I can’t imagine what my book, The Last Stored, would be like without her. She took my work and chipped away all the rubble until it became a shimmering diamond. Her layered approach to editing made the process easy and gave my manuscript the deep cleaning it needed." ~ Sonia Poynter
"Laura Maisano recently edited my YA Fantasy manuscript. Her comments were thorough, honest, and insightful. From the start, it was clear Laura understood the heart of the story, a valuable trait in an editor. She was able to point out several places I could build up characters, setting, and plot. This, together with tips on tightening my writing and clarifying my voice, took my manuscript to a level I couldn’t have achieved on my own. I highly recommend Laura to anyone wanting a clean, fast-moving, marketable manuscript." ~ Lisa Dunn
