Writers say nice things about me.

"Working with Audrey has taken my writing to the next level. I can't imagine working with anyone else. She takes the time to learn your perspective so she can help you create your best work."

Kadeem Locke, Author Demonology: The Bond

"Initially, I hired Audrey as my editor, but we soon realized it would be best for her to also be my Ghostwriter. I couldn't have chosen a better match. The subject of my book was a tender, taboo topic, and Audrey consistently approached it with compassion and understanding. Despite her professionalism, the deeply personal nature of our discussions made it easy to form a genuine friendship with her. We completed the book in about six months. I couldn't have asked for a better collaborator."

Jill Schultz, Author Liberated: Releasing the Dark Cloud of Shame

I worked with Audrey and she was amazing!! She helped me so much with developing and cleaning up my college application essay. Audrey boosted my confidence and made me realize I was talented. So helpful with writing skills, college application tips, and overall advice/motivation.
