What Clients Say

During mywriting process I always show my work to Susan Brown. She is the only editor who can give me the insight of a rigorous literary scholar and the sharp understanding of the more mainstream market. Discussing my work with her is like dancing tap to Mozart.

“Susan believed in this project before anyone else did and helped me keep the flame alive when I wanted to quit. I’m particularly grateful for her warmth, tough love, hospitality, generous coaching, and most of all her insistence that I must tell more of the truth as the story’s protagonist. I’ll never forget the day I was riding shotgun in her car when she told me, “this memoir is about the courage to reveal, Laura, not the courage to heal.”
