    "Joelle is a gem. I opted to work with her one-on-one prior to signing with an agent, and it was one of the best moves I made throughout the process. In fact, Joelle played a significant role in the fact that the book sold at auction."

    What My Clients Say

    Nataly Kogan

    “Magic - in terms of how much I grew and learned as a thinker, speaker, writer and person. Joelle is such an attentive and insightful writing partner and editor. She brings both intellectual and emotional insight to help me, as an author, dig into those areas I want to glide over. Instead, we worked to develop them.”


    Monisha Chandanani

    “What I appreciate so much about Joelle is her ability to ask the right questions and to bring the story that’s inside of me out into the forefront. She understands what it means to be a writer because she is one!”


    Kimberly Ann Johnson

    “After working with a few other editors, I can say that Joelle is a technician, a poet — and she gets it. She’s an intuitive person so she can go inside the idea and know what the next best move is, as well as having that Capricorn strength of organization. If I get another book deal, I’m going to make sure she has no other work at the time!”
