"As a new author, I was nervous about the editing process. I had
no prior experience working with an editor, and my general impressions were that this is the part where someone else hacks
and whacks at your manuscript until it looks nothing like its original vision. Working with Cara at Fine Tune Editing
was nothing like this at all. Cara was both thorough and candid, but her input didn't alter my voice as a writer. Her feedback
was constructive, and she provided it in a warm, personalized way that put me at ease throughout the entire project. Not only
did Cara improve my book to a professional level manuscript, but she also made me a better writer along the way."
"As
a first time novelist I needed help. Rather than spend $100K and 4 years getting an English degree, I hired
Cara. She helped me turn a mess into a professional work. Everyone who has read it says
it’s well written. She is very thorough, and she gave me a lot of great suggestions. I found her to be quite knowledgeable, and in
touch with the latest theories and ideas. I
had to do a major re-write to incorporate her changes, but I like the result. She really gives you your
money’s worth, and it wasn’t all that expensive to have her go through the whole thing."
--Dennis Boyle, author of Kelly's Revenge, www.dennisdomain.com
"Cara is extraordinarily talented, and a delightfully nice person to work with
as well. Whenever she made a suggestion that seemed to interfere with my author's voice, she worked with me until both my
voice and her grammatically correct suggestions fit together. Cara not only works on grammar, spelling, and punctuation, but
she has the ability to help you rewrite scenes that are great, and make them wonderful. I cannot recommend Cara highly enough.
In the course of my business life, I have worked with many so-called professionals, and Cara stands head and shoulders
above most of them."
"These days, finding your way into the literary world has become a monumental
task unto itself, especially if your work needs some fine-tuning. Agents and publishers will turn you down just as soon as
they catch a glimpse of that misplaced comma or overly used pronoun. But what Cara offers is a laboratory for your words,
where your work and her editing eye come together to create that agent-friendly piece of art you need to break into the world
of writing. Cara is quite possibly the easiest person to work with in the business. She knows how to get to the point without
making you feel like a child, and always saves room to applaud the hard work you've put into your writing." --Nicholas Morrow
