Safe Hands – W.A. Kelly

As a debut indie author I was a total novice when it came to what would be involved with proofreading and copy editing. From the outset, Debra was helpful and professional and guided me through the process every step of the way. Her work is meticulous and well-considered and she added value from her first email to her last edit suggestion. Would definitely recommend.

Match Me If You Can - Ever After Agency Book 1: Sandy Barker

Working with Debra on the Ever After Agency series, she has impressed me with her eye for detail, her careful consideration of the vision I have for my books, and her thoughtful and professional communications.

Murder in the Bookshop – Anita Davison

Debra’s touch is light, thorough, and complimented my ‘voice’ really well, which can be a challenge when editing historical novels.

I had, ‘so that’s how I should have said it,’ moments, and the story definitely flows better for her insightful suggestions.

Foul Play at Seal Bay – Judy Leigh

Debra has worked with me on an edit of the first novel in my cosy crime series, Foul Play at Seal Bay.

 

She is a consummate professional, efficient, meticulous and rigorous. She works quickly and is at all times easy to work with, having a light touch, a sense of humour and a pleasant personality. What is most important to me as a writer is that I have full confidence in her ability to understand my work and the genre I write in, and to be the 'critical eye' who will help me achieve the high standard I'm looking for. In that sense, Debra is outstanding and I am grateful for her support.

Don't Stop Believing – Freya Kennedy

It was a joy to work with Debra on my latest book. Her attention to detail was first rate, and she totally got the tone, feel and voice of the text so I knew it was in safe hands. Like most authors, I find proofreading my own work next to impossible and it was great to be able to totally trust the set of eyes giving it a final once over.

Artful Antics at St Bride's – Debbie Young

I was very pleased with Debra Newhouse's proofreading service on my latest novel, Artful Antics at St Bride's. She was easy to work with, swift and professional and efficient.
