Editors Say…
“Working with you is always worry-free from an editor’s standpoint.
You come through with interesting, relevant anecdotes and well-researched articles
time and time again! It’s a pleasure to work with you!”
Julia Slater, Reader’s Digest
“Lisa, your story queries are always a bright spot in my otherwise fairly
boring inbox. Your story ideas are written with a sense of humour but always
with the sense that I'm going to get valuable service in the piece. What's
better, you don't just give good query. When your finished piece comes in it's
exactly what I had hoped you were going to write – not something that
happens all the time with other writers! I look forward to your next piece
and, as always, those bright spots in my inbox!”
Jennifer Walker, CARP magazine for the 50Plus
“You always find interesting sources and pithy anecdotes to bring life
to your stories. Plus, you’re on time and always open to suggestions – it’s
a pleasure to work with you.”
Laura Bickle, Today’s Parent
“I can always count on you for interesting and unique pitches. But the
best part is, the stories are always right on target with great quotes. It’s
a pleasure to have a writer like you who delivers every time.”
Robin Stevenson, Canadian Family
“Thank you very much for writing it for us; you’ve
had the whole office weeping!”
Kathy Ullyott, Canadian Living
“Thank you for your excellent work on the “Amazing Newborns” story.
Your research is thorough, the tone is engaging and the practical information
that will matter to new parents is well presented – and all on time!
It's a pleasure to work with such a competent writer. You make my job easy!”
Susan Spicer, Today's Parent Special Editions
“Your work is professional, accurate, consumer
friendly and on time. You take great direction and are a pleasure to work with.”
