Endorsements
This is what people say about working with me . . .
“I worked with Dawn on my project. She is the type of person who instantly comes to mind when I think, "What type of person would I most like to work with on any project?" She is incredibly talented, easy to get along with, and absolutely passionate about everything she does. I experienced these qualities first hand when she sent me a sample of her editing services.
“With her suggestions, I was so impressed by how she can ‘enrich’ and/or ‘clean’ one’s manuscript without changing its tone. She is a professional editor; she exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend her editing services.”

"Working with Dawn has been a fantastic experience. She handled my manuscript professionally, and paid great attention to the detail oriented nature of its technical content. She gave enough input to assure me she gave it a thorough review, but in no way crossed the line to attempt to change the project’s overall purpose and tone.
I appreciated her gracious spirit in pointing out and addressing the many facets of the manuscript. I would definitely recommend her services."

“Dawn Kinzer did an awesome job! While editing my book, she was highly professional and still extremely personable. She worked through my manuscript much faster than I had anticipated. When I received it back, I found that she had done a great job of editing and still making sure the book reflected my personality. She was able to see me in the book and kept that part and even improved that voice in multiple areas. I no doubt will use her services again.”

“I’m grateful to have Dawn Kinzer as an editor for my work. She provides a high standard of professional review of a manuscript. Dawn maintains the integrity of author ownership of the writing while providing excellent feedback. I appreciate her depth perception in her character analysis. Dawn is a good communicator, and she offers an appropriate turnaround time for each writing.”

"Writing with Dawn is fun. She warmly removes the speed bumps of fear and uncertainty that can prevent many of us from putting pen to paper. Her skill and ability gave me the freedom to allow my thoughts to flow free, knowing I was protected from the restraints of not knowing or understanding all the mechanical rules of the English language.
Each time her edits and recommendations were returned to me, I found myself entirely excited and motivated with what felt like nuclear power to continue writing. Through Dawn, your inner strength and confidence in developing your manuscript will increase exponentially the more you write."

"Dawn Kinzer possesses a skilled editor's knack for spotting my manuscript's sloppy spots and suggesting excellent ways to improve. She often helps me refine not only word choices and paragraph sequencing, but also the plot and characters. But even more than her critiquing skills, I've come to rely on Dawn's coach-like cheers and support about both my manuscripts and my career as an author."
"I've been critiquing with fellow writer Dawn Kinzer for about five years. She has an eye for details and is very personable while sharing feedback. Dawn is well versed in fiction and has a feel for what works in a story, what might be missing and how to include it, as well as what elements the story would be better without. I believe her strengths of knowing grammar rules and catching details would serve her well in editing nonfiction as well. She works with the intention of helping the writer's overall craft, while addressing the editing needs of the moment.
She is a true professional, with a servant's heart. I highly recommend her editing services."
