“Jodie was far more than an excellent editor for my book proposal. She not only tightened and refined my writing with a keen eye for what publishers look for, she was extremely patient, highly supportive, and always a huge cheerleader (because self-doubt is a writer’s constant companion!). It’s hard to capture the true experience of working with Jodie in words, except to say that her presence has left a lasting impact that continues to guide me in my approach to writing.”
