"The only writer who can't improve her work is a dead writer.  Active Voice helps me capitalize on my strengths and minimize my weaknesses." 

Ruth Glick, award-winning author of over seventy novels.

"The editors at Active Voice know good writing, and they know how to help writers get to it.  I recommend their services highly."

Damaris Rowland, literary agent

"I've used Active Voice on a number of projects.  Before sending a manuscript to my publisher, it's immensely helpful to have a sharp-eyed professional check for the holes where I think I've explained but haven't, or the places where my logic becomes strained or I've gotten wordy.  Particularly at the beginning of our relationship, my editor's comments helped me polish my prose down to a cleaner, more accessible style.  I've found that if I can get my stories past her, I'll have no trouble with my publisher!"

M, New York Times best-selling author

"My Active Voice editor's help is invaluable in fine-tuning my manuscripts before I send them to my publisher.  She finds the inconsistencies and pitfalls in my plots that I hadn't realized were there,  and she smoothes out my writing to make it the best it can be.  In today's tight market, I wouldn't be without her."

Patricia Potter, award-winning, best-selling author of twenty-five novels

"Active Voice’s cooperation and expertise contributed directly and invaluably to the production of a lead mass-market paperback title for my publishing house."

Kate Duffy, Senior Editor, Kensington Publishing

"I often use Active Voice’s services when I'm in the proposal/outline stage of a novel to point out and resolve any plot problems, to make sure that my characters are consistent in terms of motivation, and to know that my storyline will 'work' before I actually begin writing the manuscript."

Diane Chamberlain, award-winning author of eight novels

"I found my Active Voice editor's critique of my manuscript to be insightful, and by following her suggestions as I rewrote, I ended up with a much better book.  I would recommend Active Voice to anyone."

LLM, New York Times best-selling author

"Whereas two other editors were unable to provide me with any clarity, Active Voice was succinctly and clearly able to point out errors in my manuscript, as well as recommend relevant references that expanded on the problems.  Because of AV's help and guidance, my understanding and knowledge of writing has been vastly improved.  From the point of view of one who is just starting out, I can say that you won't find any editorial service better than Active Voice."

REA, aspiring author

"Active Voice’s editorial analysis injected a tension and drama into my manuscript, which gave it the balance and propulsion that good fiction requires."

EA, author of two published non-fiction socio-political books and aspiring fiction writer
