“Leah was phenomenal to work with! She handled my manuscript with care and a keen eye for how a story should work. Her feedback was thorough, thoughtful, and filled with useful information and resources. I feel like she dissected my piece from the inside out and paved the way for how to put it all back together to be its best self. I will definitely be working with Leah again in the future!”
