About L Talbott Editorial and Publishing Consulting Svcs

Congratulations on completing your manuscript! Or, if you just have an idea for a book, you have found the most talented and dedicated ghostwriter on this site. I am the "editor's editor," in the tradition of professionals like Perkins and Gottlieb. I was formerly employed with a major publishing house before starting my own company. My talent has been called out by Jane Goodall and the late Donald Junkins. I will make your fiction resonate with your reader, and your non-fiction clear and penetrating. Are you a person in search of someone to help you write an autobiography? I have assisted many people in bringing their lives to the page. I offer examples of numerous published works and acknowledgments to my credit. Are you a children's book author? I have assisted many such writers to award-winning success and to being picked up by the traditional market. I pride myself in close, long-term relationships with my clients. Talk to me before you make a final decision on an editor. A brief phone call will open your eyes to the various phases of publishing to which many are naïve. You don't want to be forced to publish twice by hiring a substandard editor or, god forbid, you unwittingly hire an overseas entity who runs your manuscript through a spellcheck program, which is not editing. If this is your first time in writing a book, you want someone whom you can trust. Finally, my fees are industry standard or below. All I need is a word count and a short sample!

It was exciting. I could picture the process and my story started to become real. I felt inspired that the idea could come to fruition.Very appreciative of the discussion and hope to keep this project alive.

I feel fortunate to have found L Talbott Editorial and Publishing Consulting Svcs. I have been working on a writing project for a few years, finding it more difficult for me to understand and learn the writing process for a Fictional Book. I have faith that together, with the help I am receiving from L Talbott, this will be a successful and wonderful experience. Thank you. C. Deuschle

Krista Hill (L Talbott) was the first editor I hired for my first book. I did not use her services for my second book, so on Amazon she left me negative feedback. If you look at her Amazon feedback history on other authors, you can see a pattern of negative feedback. I can only speculate these authors hired her for editing services and then parted ways. I wish Krista all the best, but there are better ways to drum up business than disparaging others' work. Her Amazon name was Claudi14, now she goes by Madame2U. Beware!

Krista is honest, knowable, resourceful and personable. She answered all my questions, and provided an great overview of her process. She has a written contract and information about how the price is determined. I plan you use her for my second book!

Krista Hill has been an amazing supporter for a first time author.
