Her logic and excellent good sense has improved my writing immensely
'I’ve been a professional editor for over 20 years and have often suggested that potential clients hire Janet, as her reputation precedes her. So when it came to hiring someone to edit my own writing, I thought of her immediately. Her logic and excellent good sense has improved my writing immensely. I can see why clients love her!
