Susanne is more than an editor; she cares about your book as if it were her own. As a first-time author, I appreciated Susanne’s help, which was essential to me publishing a quality book.  I simply can’t thank her enough. My book went on to win first place in the 2015 Feathered Quill Book Awards!

When looking at a manuscript, Susanne has an excellent grasp of concept and theme. She gives informative suggestions to enhance the development of characters, and when assisting with the flow of their thoughts and dialogue is able to speak through punctuation. She is dependable and has integrity. I highly recommend Susanne Lakin as an editor.

Our lives are shaped from the books we read; therefore, the most valuable job to both publisher and author is their editor. Editor Susanne Lakin is a gifted wordsmith, coach, and mentor. Our authors have grown and learned from Susanne’s professional editorial direction without losing their voice. As a small book publisher, we are grateful to Susanne for always completing projects ahead of schedule and under budget.

Susanne doesn’t change the mood of your work, she smooths out the wrinkles. She taught me things to spice up and improve my style. Her help resulted in my first novel winning the CSP Book of the Year 2010 Award for fiction. The publisher could not have made a better choice.

Susanne went above and beyond, making important plot suggestions and pointing out holes in the story, along with providing an excellent job of line editing and proofreading. Nice job, quickly and effectively done.

Without Susanne Lakin’s expert editing, expertise on how a book should be put together, and her special literary insights, I would not have my newest novel, Love, Sometimes, with an agent and a film option, and now sold to Simon and Schuster for publication. I can’t wait to give her the rest of my books. Not only is she a great writer, but she’s a rare combination, also knowing how to edit.

Susanne’s expertise and insight have proven the most valuable I have come across in my experience with mentors and consultants. Susanne’s advice whipped my writing into perfect shape and I wouldn’t hesitate a moment to recommend her. Not only is she brilliant at her work, but she is also kind, caring, and enthusiastic. She has motivated me to produce the best work possible, and this has made me realize that rewriting isn’t as daunting as it seems. Thank you, Susanne!

Susanne’s critique service is really top-notch. I love the fast but thorough work that she does every single time. My book she critiqued called I Won’t Cry hit three best-seller lists right away, and I could not have done it without her.

After a thorough search, and following numerous editing samples, I selected Susanne to edit my first novel. I could not have been more thrilled with her expertise, coaching, and attention to detail. She is the quintessential editor!
