"I've often heard an editor compared to a physician. A doctor must first make a diagnosis. That’s what Roxanne did with my manuscript. Advice followed. First a major improvement. Then a minor setback. More advice. Voila! A healthy manuscript was born--and then sold! Her diagnosis was targeted for my particular manuscript and follow-up care was consistent. This could also be your remedy!"
