Author, The Lunar Prophecy Series
"Ariel was very professional. She was unique in that she made me think about word choices and developmental problems. She went above and beyond what I asked. I worked with her on two of my novels and was glad I did. She was timely and meticulous in her editing. I liked her talent for catching what my betas breezed over. She's really great at her profession.
