Testimonials
Back in the day, as they say, newspaper writers copy-edited the work of other writers prior to typesetting. That’s where Bill learned the rules of grammar, spelling, and punctuation and developed a detailed eye for proofreading. After years of owning his own youth sports business – and driving his staff crazy spotting their literary errors – best-selling motivational writer David Clark asked Bill to edit his books, “Broken Open” and “Eat Sh*t and Die.” These books moved to the top of Amazon’s lists for sports, motivational, and food books. This led Bill to sell his youth sports business and start Summit Editing. Bill is detailed-oriented, deadline-driven, and easy for you to work with on your very personal projects.
“Bill identified more than 200 mistakes in my first book even after my publisher’s own editor had edited it. What did I pay them for? Thanks to Bill, I published two books that I can proudly say I have no qualms about anyone pointing out errors. Bill was also instrumental in ensuring the highest-quality in the literary aspects of my audiobook for ‘Eat Sh*t and Die.’ ”

“Bill is a thorough professional and a pleasure to work with on my history manuscript. Rather than telling me how to write, he took the time to learn my style and understand how I wanted to come across to the reader before beginning his editing efforts. He successfully combined both the necessary detailed review for grammar, tense, and punctuation (he’s a stickler on commas!), as well as active/passive voice style discrepancies and his big picture impressions on readability/suitability for my target audience. His review made my manuscript a much improved product that still reflected my “voice” and writing style. Definitely a win-win transaction.”
