Here is what a few of my clients have to say:

"Linda DeVore has provided my company with excellent service for many years. She is very sensitive to the specific needs of the target population for our various products and proofs accordingly. It is not easy to switch from editing technical and legal scripts to children's stories to advertising blurbs all in one day! Her editing and proofreading is outstanding. She consciensciously adheres to timelines, and her pricing structure is more than fair. Linda is professional, flexible, and very helpful. It is always a pleasure to work with her."

Nancy Nichols, author and co-owner of Firelight Books, LLC

"Linda DeVore does not edit you out of your copy or your style, in my case a literary manuscript and cover and query letters, but you can be assured that with her copyediting, what you send out is correct and respectable. Excellent, efficient!"

Marne Carmean, poet and author of Planet of Saints

"Linda DeVore's copyediting services are an excellent resource for any company interested in refining their message through advertising or other means such as the Web. Linda corrected and tightened the draft copy for our Web site while maintaining the message we were trying to convey. I give DeVore Desktop Design my highest recommendation."

Jeff Henson, Henson Enterprises, Inc.

"As a former instructor of English and an author, I truly believe that Linda's work is a great way for students and executives to achieve the closest to the ideal paper or report."

Neal T. Weintraub
author of Tricks of the Floor Trader and Trading Chicago Style

"I needed a quality editing and proofreading service with a quick turnaround. I contacted Linda DeVore on the advice of a friend and was not disappointed. The quality of her work was excellent, the service was timely, and the price was right."

Tom Lewallen, Sand Springs, OK

"Linda's service was incredibly helpful to our efforts to reach families whose children are hospitalized. I needed our concepts and philosophy to be accessible to as many parents as possible. Linda used plain English and rearranged our sentence structure in a way that made sense and stayed true to our message."

Maggie Hoffman, Long Island, NY

"Linda returned my manuscript promptly, which allowed me to meet those hectic deadlines. Her editing skills were so thorough that I have received compliments about the lack of errors in the textual content of my book. I am very pleased!"

Cheryl Callahan, author

"Linda's help weeding out grammatical errors and polishing sentences was invaluable and much more effective than I'd hoped. But even more valuable—and totally unexpected—were her insightful questions and comments."

Ken Loveland, author

"Linda DeVore gives authors who are not native English speakers the opportunity to present their knowledge to the world scientific community."

Leo Dats, author

"Linda's work was as promised, which unfortunately is a rarity in today's electronic market. We look forward to working with her again."

Joseph Fullam, author of The Players

"Linda . . . worked wonders on my English. Her eye for detail was invaluable. Not only did she get all my words looking in the same direction and marshall my arguments, but she also made an effort to understand exactly what I was writing about [Transactional and Snapshot Replication]. . . . Her technical knowledge on a wide variety of matters was nothing short of astounding. . . . [She] went the extra mile . . . to make sure that the job [she] did was an exceptional one."
