Iris Nyerges, Author of Holy Spirit God Within

 

"I’m thankful I found Elizabeth to help me with my editing journey. She was kind, extremely patient, and helpful during this process. Being a first-time, author was not easy for me with this huge learning curve. Elizabeth helped to streamline the process and help keep me on point. She moved the manuscript around, so there was flow, and it made sense.
She was extremely encouraging and kept helping me along as she virtually held my hand. Thank you, Elizabeth, for all your words of affirmation and helping me through this daunting journey to the finish line. Now my book is published and I couldn’t be happier."
