"I was so nervous to choose the right editor for such a personal project. I cannot explain how wonderful it has been to work with Erica (three times now). She truly elevated my books without changing or losing my essence. Erica made the process fun and enjoyable while coaching me through my moments of panic. I will never trust my work with anyone else. I am eternally grateful she came into my life." Gabrielle Stone, author of the best-selling book Eat, Pray, #FML.

“I've worked with over a dozen editors and proofreaders. Erica is, by far, the best of them. Whether it comes to fixing the flow, finding the typos, or checking the facts, she always nailed it. I'm never going to hire another editor. She is as close to 'perfect' as you can get in this world!” ~Michal Stawicki, author of The Art of Persistence and many other books

“Having Erica at Ink Deep Editing on my team was one of the best decisions I've made. Being new to the world of writing, I was apprehensive about hiring an editor, but I knew it had to be done in order to make my book the best it could be. Erica made the whole process easy and painless. She's an absolute pleasure to work with. She's understanding, knowledgeable, and quick to answer questions, and when she suggests changes, she takes the time to explain the reasons behind them. I truly felt like she gave my book the same time and attention she would give her own book. More importantly, though, she was honest about my writing and my story. But she doesn’t just point out the mistakes, she helps you make your book the best it can be. When I finished my book, I was so excited to have finally completed the project. To say that I was an author was something I'd wanted for so long. When Erica was finished with my book, I really felt like it was something I could be proud of. I had all the pieces there but Erica helped me get them all fitted together nicely and polished up so it shined! I can't wait to work with her on my next book.” ~Chad Lee Erway, author of Masterminds Incorporated: An Appointment with Fear

“If you are committed to your writing and your success as an author, you owe it to yourself to work with Ink Deep Editing. Erica doesn't just edit your 'blood, sweat and tears'--she respectfully questions, she gently prods, and she clearly educates. My novel is much stronger after working with her. Ink Deep Editing isn't an expense in your writing adventure, it's an investment.” ~Beth Gildersleeve, author of Love Rehired and several other novels

“Erica is wonderful to work with. She asks clarifying questions, fixes my comma abuse, and points out anything that doesn't make sense. I can't express how happy I am with the speed of her work and how detailed it is. I'm looking forward to finishing my next novel and sending it to her.” ~Renee Lovins, author of Ink Deep

​

“Erica's web pages 'Editing' and 'FAQ: How Does the Editing Process Work?' neatly and accurately describe her process. However, seeing her work on your own writing is beyond thrilling. Erica transformed Haylee and the Travelers' Stone from a VW into a Jaguar....ready to hit the Indy road! No question about it - she'll be editing the sequel.” ~Lisa Redfern, author of Haylee and the Travelers' Stone

“Erica Ellis has been a huge help in correcting my English. I’m a speed typist, so when I started writing books, I needed a lot of help with corrections. Erica came to my rescue. Thank goodness!
