A Client Writes:

Jake is a polished editor who has given me useful and incisive pointers in my writing over the past two years. He has edited two of my manuscripts and numerous short stories.  Jake also moderates the Virtual Branch of the Canadian Authors Association’s manuscript critiquing service, and many reviewers - myself included - take their cues from Jake’s leadership in how he delivers his critique on the works submitted.

He is dedicated to his work, is sincere yet pointed in his feedback, and captures the essence of a sentence, bringing it alive through his editing, without losing or altering the writer’s voice.

- Shane Joseph – author of “Redemption in Paradise”
