It was the greatest of pleasure working with Ellen on my project. She was so extremely nice and so professional in working with me. She listened to my concept and then added her expertise. I told her she turned my work from a high school education into a PHD. She was very thorough and exact in her estimated time of completion. I could not sing her praises enough. She is a huge blessing to me and my project.

Reviews
Ellen was exceptional from start to finish. Her editing elevated my manuscript while preserving my voice, and her attention to detail was outstanding. Communication throughout the entire process was prompt, professional, and thoughtful, making what could have been a stressful experience enjoyable and collaborative. If you're looking for an editor who is highly skilled, dependable, and genuinely invested in your work, I recommend Ellen without hesitation. She exceeded every expectation.
I couldn't have asked for a better editor to work with than Ellen! I'm pleased with her work, including her attention to detail. But besides her skill as an editor, it was extremely refreshing to work with her! She was professional, punctual with deadlines, communicative/responsive and is a real person that I could connect with and trust with my manuscript!
Ellen provides superior service. Her review, editing, etc. made a profound impact on my research. I have used her services more than once.
I have appreciated Ellen’s professionalism and her work. The first editing job went well, and I am sending her another one to edit. I could not have had a better experience so far
Thoughtful editing with knowledge of human condition.
I'll be honest I'm not tech savvy and had never heard of Thumbtack but I wrote a book and needed help with proof reading, editing, page layout. I saw Ellen's profile and took a chance even though I had no idea what to expect from someone across the country. What I found was a highly professional, punctual, extremely thorough person that not only provided everything I needed but offered incredible insight and a finished product I can't wait to share. I am beyond thrilled and grateful for Ellen's help. Anthony Scattini wannabe novelist.
She provided me with a contract stating what she would do and deadlines. She fulfilled it all. Also, she provided up to date changes, such as using a different font for phone texts. (I didn't know that.) Yes, professionalism, work quality, responsiveness and punctuality. She was a little cheaper than my publisher's quote. :)
Ellen is amazing. I gave her a rough draft of my manuscript with minimal guidance. She returned to me a polished manuscript that I would be proud and confident to turn into a publishing agency. She completed her task before the deadline she had quoted. When I had questions regarding the edits, we scheduled a time to chat and worked through the issues together. I very much appreciate the quality of Ellen's work, her professionalism and her patience/willingness to work through issues with me. I will be using her again for my future endeavors. Thank you, Ellen.
Working with the professional was efficient, effective and rather encouraging. I was pleased with the work, the price and will work with her again!
