“As soon as I met Shauna I felt safe with her, which is essential when looking for someone to give you feedback on writing. Her gentle yet direct coaching left me better informed but also inspired. She helped me to see areas of my writing that I could improve while encouraging me to use my own voice. I look forward to continuing our work together as I see my first project through to completion.”

"I’ve just done a quick read-through of your comments and can see that they will be extremely useful during the revision. I can’t wait to get to work on it, but will let the ideas percolate as you suggest. I really appreciate your approach to this work. You manage to balance criticism with encouragement and are so thorough. I feel like you “get” my characters. I also appreciate your adherence to the timeline you set out and how you manage authors' expectations of the type of feedback you provide."

"You were careful to provide substantive suggestions without crushing the enthusiasm for the project. That takes professionalism and humility. I appreciate that so much."
