Thank you Craig for editing my book. I had been warned that the editing process could be quite painful so working with Craig came as a very pleasant surprise. He was always sensitive with his comments, made excellent observations, questioned the right things and generally made me think about what I had written. His input undoubtedly elevated the quality of my prose and has left me with a far more polished and professional book without me ever feeling I had lost my voice. I think it is also worth pointing out that on the odd occasion where I didn’t want to follow his advice he was always respectful and did not try to push his opinion on me, which I very much appreciated. He also has a good eye for detail and picked up on all the spelling and grammatical errors! All in all, working with Craig was a very positive experience and I would not hesitate to recommend him.
