“As a novice author, my first editorial experience was with Cliff Carle. I am sure I would have given up after [publishers’] rejection(s) had it not been for Cliff… saying how much he liked the book. Those positive words and a title makeover combined with his patience and my persistence revived my book. From the receipt of my manuscript through the editorial process to the bookstore shelves, Cliff was infinitely encouraging.
I know having your work edited can be an unpleasant experience, however, Cliff was diplomatic and helpful in his critique while he patiently indulged my inexperience as a new writer. He has continued to be supportive of my writing and has offered me valuable insight toward furthering my career as a writer.
Thanks to Cliff’s efforts to turn my manuscript into a book, I was motivated to become a columnist for a Texas newspaper and magazine, as well as an essayist, humorist and public speaker. I hope to have the opportunity to work with Cliff again on future writing projects. He has my highest regard.”
