- Lauren Holder
"Corrine is the whole package: down-to-earth, authentic, professionally savvy, and highly skilled. With her help, I was able to find an artistic and literary center point for my book. I am most confident that my Human Magnet Syndrome’s second edition would not have been so successful without her developmental editing skills. I could not recommend her more highly."
- Ross Rosenberg

"Corrine was an outstanding book editor. Writing a book is not easy. However, she really pushed me to think deeper to make sure I was conveying the right information for my readers. The editing process was really efficient and it was an absolute pleasure to work with her. I refer her to anyone that asks me about writing a book."
- Melissa Swader

"Several years ago, I decided to write a book. I had never written one before and needed guidance from start to finish. I reached out to Corrine and am so glad I did. Corrine was professional, wise, and a great writing coach. She helped me to speak my message through my voice with the greatest clarity. If you are looking for support from someone with experience and competence, consider hiring Corrine. She certainly fulfilled my expectations."
- Ken Wells
"I had been working on my book for SIX YEARS when I finally decided I needed support. Corrine was a Godsend! She helped me see that I was much closer to the finish line than I thought. I was able to finish the project and step into the publishing process in a matter of weeks! One bit of advice I would offer new authors, don't wait for years to reach out for support. The right person (Corrine!! Corrine!!) will be able to see the bigger picture in a way we simply can't as in-the-thick-of-it writers. 10/10 would recommend Corrine!"
- Beth Berry
“Thank you for all your encouragement and support when writing this book!”
- Pam Ostrowski
"I worked with Corrine for over a year-long period on this book project. I was amazed by how she could take a rough piece of writing and turn it into gold. She has an incredible ability to reduce writing to its most valuable and interesting parts. I know that Corrine is an incredible coach and she was a huge reason why one of the leading publishers, Sounds True, picked up the book and decided to publish it. When the manuscript went to the publisher, the editor said that the delivery was an editor's dream and needed no more significant work. I highly recommend Corrine's skills as a coach, ghostwriter, and editor."
- Simon Golden, Book Coach, Executive Coach, Ghostwriter
"Corrine has helped me with many writing projects over the past several years, including editing and writing blogs, articles, web copy and most importantly helping me with developmental editing for my book proposal and manuscript. Corrine is an extremely knowledgeable writing and publishing professional and an absolutely delightful human being. Her ability to collaborate, work in teams, and keep a friendly and positive attitude while under stressful deadlines amazes me. Corrine helped counsel and coach me through writing my first book and her sage advice resulted in a book that is well-structured and written and user-friendly. I have much love, respect and admiration for Corrine and highly recommend the opportunity to work with her. I have referred two close friends who also love working with Corrine."
- Joyce Marter, LCPC
"I loved reading Corrine's comprehensive analysis of my book. Her feedback and encouragement helped boost the confidence I needed to self-publish."
- Jennifer Convissor
"Corrine was wonderful to work with throughout the entire process. I went from a point of confusion with my writing to feeling clarity on what I needed to do to move forward. She helped give me confidence in my writing and gave solid suggestions of how to make my writing stronger to prepare to publish. I would absolutely recommend Corrine to anyone who is looking for top notch editing services!"
- Jill Vanderzanden
"I would not have published my book had I not found Corrine! She encouraged me to plow through the various phases of writing the book and guided me, as a first-time author, every step of the way. Corrine ushered me through the entire process—from a rough outline to a completed book in 6 months! She makes the tedious aspects of this process manageable (and even enjoyable), and is always there to support with invaluable suggestions, a quick response time and a friendly smile."
- Brenda Rose
"Corrine has been a great coach and editor for me through the process of turning my book idea into reality. I'm so grateful to Corrine because she not only provided excellent services as an editor/coach but also encouragement through the process—without her support this would have been impossible."
- Frederick Dudek
“Corrine is THE person you need to get your book project over the finish line. She helped me with not one, but two books in a short span of months. Having the support I needed to make my dream come alive was invaluable. If you are looking for a team to help complete your book or written project please add Corrine to the line up!”
- Leslie Anne Morris
“Corrine came highly recommended and she did not disappoint. I was writing my first book and needed some hand holding, accountability and encouragement. Corrine did exactly that and was not only efficient but truly brilliant. She provided me with the exhale I needed and her professionalism was to be admired. Corrine sees both the big picture and the small details of a project that I think separates her from others in her field. I strongly recommend working with Corrine as my experience was nothing but wonderful.”
- Kate Schneider, LCPC
“Corrine Casanova. Her name says it all. She helped me make my story into something so much better than I ever thought possible. I considered my book to be my baby. It’s extra amazing when someone else treats your project like their baby. This is what Corrine does. Corrine brought storytelling into my story, helping me to embrace the power of my voice. She is a Book Whisperer, and quite frankly I can't imagine writing any book without the magic that she brings into a story.”
- Michelle Choi, MD
