Testimonials

"Lara is a wonderful manuscript editor, always insightful and honest and a pleasure to work with. Following through on her comments helped me get a two-book deal with Random House. I'm working on my third book now and I'll always have Lara involved in the process." - Ellen Baker, author of KEEPING THE HOUSE and THE WORK OF A WOMAN

"I love working with Lara. She's dreamy! She spots problems and offers solutions right away. She's a manuscript's best friend." - Rhonda Stapleton, author of STUPID CUPID, FLIRTING WITH DISASTER, and PUCKER UP

>> "I employed Lara's expertise with my debut young-adult novel and I couldn't be happier. Each time I hit a plateau, Lara gave me the insight, perspective, and tools I needed to get my story moving in the right direction. Her astute advice on everything from pacing to character development to voice helped my novel reach its full potential. She is the ideal balance of encouragement and honesty. After round after round of rejection letters in the past, I am confident that when I submit my novel this time, it'll get in the door. Lara's been a lifesaver." - Susannah Nichols, young-adult writer and high school English teacher, Ferndale, Michigan

 >> "Lara is patient and supportive. I call her my writing muse because she's inspired my novels so much. I am so much closer to being published with her help." - Dan Tricarico, young-adult writer and high school English teacher, San Diego, California
