“Brette Sember is the most thoughtful content/copy editor with whom I’ve ever worked, and I’ve written 22 books. She is my go-to person as the publisher of Lucid House Publishing, and has done excellent work in several different genres. I’ve also used her services as an Indexer. Again, her attention to detail and timeliness are impeccable. I highly recommend her. In almost 40 years of working in
publishing, she is the best I have ever encountered.”
“Working with Brette as my editor and book coach was an absolute game-changer for my book proposal. Her expertise and guidance transformed it into something truly exceptional. Not only did she help me make my proposal better, but she also pushed me as a writer, teaching me valuable tips and writing rules along the way. Her dedication and commitment to my project were evident in every interaction, making the entire process both educational and enjoyable. I am truly grateful for the opportunity to work with Brette and highly recommend her to any aspiring writer.”
“Brette is a great writing coach, cheerleader and editor in one. She helped me to work on big enough pieces of my book proposal to feel like ( and make ) great progress while keeping it from feeling overwhelming. From concept to proposal in just over 8 wks! Wahoo! I look forward to working with her again- on the full book when it gets accepted in the next few months.”
“Brette was a huge part of my book writing process. She gave so much incredibly helpful feedback and helped me bring my book together. The advice I was given was to DEFINITELY get a book editor, and I’m so glad I got to have Brette as mine!”
“It was my first book proposal and I had lots of books on the shelves to tell me how to do it, researched the internet, but in the end my truest form of help came from Brette Sember. Once I sought her help for this overwhelming project, everything came together.
Brette clearly is a master at crafting and honing book proposals and helping you find your voice. She not only gave me practical advice but encouraged me to use my own voice in the proposal. I still remember her little notes, “Where’s that Claudine bravado?!”
My agent complimented me on the book proposal (I think she was expecting a mess from a first time author) and sold it to Running Press. The book is doing very well, and after 3 months of its release went into its second printing.”
“I would highly recommend Brette Sember’s coaching, editing, proofreading, marketing, and ebook/paperback publishing guidance for authors wanting to publish a manuscript. As a new author, having a seasoned professional shepherd me through the process from my first draft to the book’s placement on Amazon/Kindle was invaluable! Brette, thank you for all your support, expert guidance, and most importantly your patience associated with the publishing of my recent book. I would highly recommend all of your comprehensive author’s services to others!”
“I have just finished working on my book with Brette and it has been an amazing experience. She started as my book coach and then continued as my editor and because of her skill and wealth of knowledge I have a finished manuscript.
Her guidance and insight to a first time author was invaluable, helping me to bring my vision of this book to fruition. I’m forever grateful for all she has done for me and would recommend her highly.”
“My sincere gratitude to Brette for her exceptional talent, professionalism, honesty and encouragement in the writing of my first book. She was patient, informative and direct. She helped me define my objectives and express myself constructively. She is a true gem to the industry.”
“Brette was a visionary for my book. She molded the concept, practically read my mind for the content, and organized everything I wanted to convey. Her writing is gorgeous and her analytical skills impressive. She was able to write in my voice, but better! I so enjoyed working with her!”
“I’ve had the pleasure of working with Brette on several editing and writing projects. She has a fluid style, mega editorial chops, and legal writing acumen. Brette is also easy to work with and always open to feedback–I highly recommend her services.”
