I cannot imagine the final version of either my ‘Statement of Purpose’ or ‘Personal Statement’ without Diane’s sensitive touch. She amazingly kept my voice in the expression of my ideas in both essays. An experienced editor, she was skilled in refining both my ‘SOP’ and ‘PS’ and provided excellent advice about how to strengthen both papers. I was really lucky to have her help during the challenging process of writing my application for graduate school. Thank you, Diane, for making my essays unassailable!

I loved all the changes Diane made to my essay and I am very satisfied with how it reads now. My writing had been extemporaneous and followed an impromptu train of thought rather than the logical flow of my thinking. She articulated my ideas and artfully turned my essay into a much more compelling document.

I got to know Diane while working at the American Institute of Physics in the 1980s. She readily shared her ability as a creative writer and was eager to assist with all types of writing, from the most trivial lists of information to the narrative for historical articles, always producing writing of an exceptional standard.
My wife and I have stayed in touch with Diane ever since we left the States-for my wife Gro as well as for me, she embodies the unique qualities of New York City, our favorite town, and, in spite of the geographical distance between us, we continue to appreciate her artistic and creative talents and her warmth and generous spirit.

My association with Diane goes back to the early 90s, when we were both employed at Lifetime Medical Television. She played a strong role in the development of the Continuing Medical Education program, working closely with the CME Director and Advisory Committee to ensure accreditation of the network's CME program. Her preparation of correspondence, minutes, memoranda and other documentation always reflected a high level of professionalism and I am very pleased to be able to recommend Diane without reservation for any type of writing project.

I recommend Diane with full confidence to anyone in need of a wordsmith. There is an art to her way of thinking and working-her craft in organizing and editing all types of material always results in a fully polished presentation-and because of her special skill in summing up a person's history, I will not let anyone else touch my resume.

I feel lucky to have found Diane. She listened carefully and adjusted her knowledge and experience to my individual needs. Her turn-around time was always as agreed. As a result, I have a resume and portfolio of cover letters that clearly and concisely convey my message. I would, without hesitation, recommend Diane to my colleagues and friends.

Thanks, Diane, for the wonderful edit you recently did on my resume. It had been outdated and somewhat "dusty" when I initially gave it to you and I was very pleased by the careful way you clarified my employment history and offered other pertinent suggestions. My revised resume has already been very helpful to me in my career and I will certainly seek out your services when it needs another update.

I have known Diane for over a decade - her help recently proved to be invaluable as I moved through a career change. Diane turned a somewhat scattered list of education and employment history into a polished resume and wrote a cover letter that reflected my strengths, accomplishments and limitations in a clear and positive tone. I would certainly recommend her expertise to those seeking assistance with any aspect of the writing process, i.e., research, composition, editing, and the like.

Nothing is more frustrating than being in possession of wonderful ideas but fumbling over how to communicate them. And for that, I believe that Diane could provide you with the expertise required for your endeavor. She has helped me on several occasions, including editing the text for an architectural book, which requires not only technical skill but also artistic imagination.
I am positive that she would be an enormous help to you - a significant by-product of her work is her skillful incorporation of your ideas, accurately reflecting the vital aspects of your message - her keen ability to interpret and synthesize your text could prove to be an important factor in your professional life.

After reviewing several professionals, I selected Diane, not only based on her references, but also based on her personal philosophical convictions, which she shared with me through our communications. Everything she said about her professional qualifications as well as about her personality turned out to be true. Her writing style is inspirational and she has helped me to understand myself even better than when I started writing "The Congo of My Ancestors." Without a doubt, my book project will be accomplished as planned because of Diane's careful editing and sharp insight.

Diane's editing plays a significant role in my architectural writing and it is always a great joy to have her magical editing. For the past two years, she has edited and proofed my papers and most recently, she helped me win the 2006 Deborah J. Norden Fund Award, sponsored by the Architectural League of New York.
She not only corrects my syntax and chooses the most appropriate language to convey what I am trying to express but she also refines the structure of my writing and facilitates the flow of my ideas. With great patience, she questions every single aspect of my writing that is either unclear or ambiguous and her scrutiny always leads to a candid discussion and sometimes an intense debate.
Diane's editing is both artful and intellectually stimulating!

Hi Diane,
I wanted to let you know that LABA contacted me and they are interested in seeing videos of my work. This is a very good sign and I think having your assistance with the writing really helped me. I didn't feel alone in the process and you were able to bring my voice and ideas to a clearer place.
