“Upon our initial meeting, I knew Amy was the editor for my memoir. To hand over my precious memories, vulnerability, and heart-felt story, I knew she was more than an editor; she was a piece of the story to be told. Amy has magically crafted and structured our work, with gentleness and amazing grace, to allow my story to be told exactly how I wanted it to be shared. I know her work was more than grammar, structure, and centralized theme; there were prayers and an investment to allow God to shine through this work. She’s an invaluable teammate to making our polished words come to life!” ~ Kristina Smith, author and vice president of The Colon Club
