What people say about my work
“I received the Aquafix catalog, read it cover to cover, and thought I would let you know that I loved it! Funny, smart, informative. Gotta give it up to those involved in the design, layout, and copy. Really good stuff.”
“We are prepping for our 2014 catalog and everyone raved about your writing in our last catalog…” – Kevin Ripp, Aquafix
“Liz, the article is phenomenal. You are such a talented writer! I must have read it 50 times, and every time I marvel at your prose. I lived it (I know the ending), but I can’t help but be taken in by the way you tell the story. Such a well-written piece.” – Kevin Shahinian, Pacific Pictures Videography Studio

“Great job on the copyediting of the Elements book. I’m impressed.” – Nancy Peterson, Peachpit Press
“Thank you so much for your WONDERFUL article about myself and my company. I was just forwarded it today from a WedFACTER that came across it and I was so nervous to read it and so pleased when I did. I have to be honest, until your article, I’ve NEVER liked the way I or my company has come across in interviews or little blips. I feel like the previous interviewers have always left my personality and the real 'meat' of the article out and just made it glossy and surface. You totally made this such an interesting (and hopefully inspiring) piece to read. Thank you again so much for taking the time to really get my vibe!” – Kristin*, Bliss* Video Productions
“Thanks for being such a powerful writer and giving me the motivation to take my company and my skill to another level. I truly believe that your articles and books from Robert Kiyosaki influenced me and pushed me to become better at my art and motivated me to understand business and financial literacy. Your articles made me see and recognize a dream that was deep inside.”
– Samuel Montgomery, Eduography, LLC
