Testimonials & Quotes from Published Authors
“Brittiany Koren edited two of my cozy mystery novels. She is very professional and congenial to work with. Her comments enhanced the quality of my manuscripts. I would be happy to work with her again, and recommend her to others.”—Helen Osterman, Author of the Emma Winberry mystery series
“My books are not solitary efforts. The ideas may have been my own, however, the finished product—the books that my readers read—are the result of two minds—mine and my editor’s, Brittiany Koren. Editing is a necessary part of writing, and to work with an editor of Brittiany Koren’s caliber is always a pleasure. Her suggestions and encouragement have enriched my writing and inspired me to reach for that elusive star.”
—Donna MacQuigg, Author of It’s Never Too Late

"In all the years I've been writing and publishing romance novels I've worked with many editors, most of them excellent. I'm pleased to say that Brittiany Koren belongs in that category. Brittiany understood from the start that my latest release, NOT WITHOUT YOU, was the book of my heart. She treated it with gentle respect while helping me through every stage to make this, my first hardcover, the best effort I was capable of. I don't hesitate to recommend her as a talented editor who knows her stuff."

“Brittiany Koren is experienced, professional, and easy to work with. She challenged me to stretch my creativity, and think through word selection and phrasing to make my books the best they could be. Her willingness to discuss suggested changes, and help me make difficult choices when necessary were invaluable to me as an author. After my publisher assigned her to work with me the first time, I insisted she edit my next novels. Like it or not, fair or not, a poorly edited book reflects poorly on the author. (Just read some of the online book reviews!) Brittiany’s sharp editorial eye and thoughtful editing of my novels resulted in books I’m proud to have out in the marketplace.” —C. C. Harrison, award winning author of The Charmstone and Picture of Lies
“Brittiany has keen instincts for the storytelling process. My novels are stronger thanks to her. She’s a delight.”—Dorothy McFalls aka Dorothy St. James, author of the White House Gardener mystery series, and The Nude
“I first met Brittiany Koren when she was assigned to me by my publisher, and will be using her services now that she's moved on to working freelance. She looks far beyond grammar and typos, and can see the overall picture. Sometimes she knew my characters better than I did, and her suggestions made a much stronger story. I highly recommend her.” —Terry Odell, author of Where Danger Hides and When Danger Calls
“A couple of years ago I won a bid to work with Brittiany Koren for an editorial evaluation on Brenda Novak's Auction for Diabetes. She helped me over some major hurdles I'd been having with my manuscript and now I can proudly say that my novel Night Journey has been published and is getting great reviews.”—Goldie Browning, author of Night Journey
