EDITING TESTIMONIALS:
As a first-time author, I was nervous, uncertain, and jittery. New frontier, and it seemed overwhelming. Thankfully, I was introduced to Lorraine Reguly, who embraced my emotions and met me where I was.
With her intuition, knowledge, skillset, and genuine care for others, she graciously guided me to where I needed to be. Lorraine took my passion project and made it come alive while ensuring I had full autonomy and final decision in every task. The journey became more than I had ever imagined. Her attention to detail and step-by-step communications ensured that all expectations were exceeded, including patiently waiting on the phone as I pushed the “PUBLISH” button.
A true honor and pleasure, one for which I am forever grateful. I look forward to having our paths intersect again.

Why I am grateful for Lorraine:
I am so grateful for my amazing editor, Lorraine Reguly!When I finally met her, I had already:
1. Been seriously disappointed by a “structural editor” who marked my outline like it was a high school paper. The editor was not the person I had hired (it was her assistant) and I was looking for big-piece shifts and organization, not grammar!
2. Been disappointed by a second “amazing editor who worked in Hollywood on screenplays,” who took a reasonably large deposit, then didn’t return my emails for a month until I finally tracked her down for a refund (through the fiverr platform she advertised on—not recommended!)
3. Had 3 versions of the cover done, none of which was anything suitable
4. Bought Hemingway (writing/editing software—very sharp learning curve)
5. Spent quite a lot of money on all this!By the time Lorraine asked “How can I help you?” I was done fooling around. I was serious. She was serious.
Lorraine found everything I needed to do (and much, much more) with the end result being something I am EXTREMELY happy with, proud of, and making money on. Thanks so much Lorraine. I am already planning to do the next one with you.

Writing a book is an emotionally challenging task. You bear your heart and soul, and then you send your manuscript to an editor whose job is to critique your work. I braced myself for a nerve-wracking experience, but instead had a pleasant surprise.
Working with Lorraine was a wonderful experience! Lorraine is thorough and has a remarkable attention to details. She took the time to explain the choices she made, so I feel more comfortable and have a chance to learn from this process!! I think what I appreciate the most is that Lorraine was able to keep my voice even through heavy editing because she took the time to get to know me and my style. At the end of the day, this is what a great editor does – they take your book and make it better! I would highly recommend working with Lorriane, especially if you are publishing your first book.

I had the distinct pleasure of working with Lorraine Reguly as my editor and formatter on my book, Signs of His Light: Spiritual Lessons from My Journey with Cancer. She is extremely talented and definitely skilled in these areas.
She was able to take my written words and correct them in such a way as to make them better, without changing the meaning of what I wanted to communicate with my reader.
She was responsive to my concerns while also being straightforward and honest with her observations and comments. When changes were made, I always had the opportunity to review them and give my feedback. She delivered on her promises and completed my project earlier than the due date. Her fees were reasonable and she worked extra hard to make sure my first publication was a success!
Lorraine and I connected on a level that I didn’t expect to have happen. She clearly understood my heart and I made a new friend on this journey. She is a delightful woman with whom I will work again. I highly recommend her if you need someone for your book!

Lorraine did terrific work for me on Covey and JayJay Get Educated. She made thoughtful and educated fixes; she quickly answered my (sometimes dumb) questions; and she even finished the entire project a day or two early.
She made the book better. I strongly recommend her.

Lorraine Reguly of Wording Well edited my book, Asset Strippers.
She did a superb job, offering some really good ideas about how to significantly improve the script.
Lorraine was easy to work with, doing copy editing, line editing, and pointing out all the inconsistencies of people, dates, and events that had occurred during the writing of the story.
I can highly recommend the accuracy and timeliness of her work as well as her insight into the substance of a story given to her. I will certainly use her services again.

What do you do when the author of the foreword for your book delivers it to you in an audio file? Well, you transcribe it, of course. Then what do you do if doesn’t flow and is not in the writing style you want to introduce your book because it doesn’t shed the book (or the author of the foreword) in a good light?
Here’s what you do: You hire Lorraine Reguly at Wording Well!This is exactly what I did, and I couldn’t be happier!
Lorraine took all the stress out of the equation. Not only was I surprised (and grateful) for the one-day turnaround, but the quality of the edit was outstanding. Lorraine was able to get the words flowing while still ensuring the essence of the writer lived on.
I’ll definitely be using Lorraine’s services for all my future writing projects and highly recommend that you do the same.
(Lorraine also worked her magic on editing this testimonial, with my blessing.)

When I needed an editor to edit my short ebook on weight loss and lifestyle change called Losing Ten Kilos, I contacted Lorraine Reguly.
She responded very quickly and put up a fair price. I am very happy with her services as she was prompt and it was very easy to work with her.
I give her my recommendation and will be using her services again when needed.

Lorraine helped turn my very first book into something beautiful.
Her attention to detail, professional approach, and commitment to keeping my style was more than I could’ve asked for. Not only did she do a great job at helping me, she also turned this project around in LESS time than I originally anticipated. I appreciated the professionalism, responsiveness, and encouragement that I received all throughout this process.
I will definitely use Lorraine again to assist me in making any future works really come to life! I definitely couldn’t have gotten this project done without her time and expertise!

When you are a first-time author, self-publishing a book on Amazon can be a daunting task. Lorraine went above and beyond the call of duty to help me get my book up and running.
I was a professional sportswriter for seven years, and wrote for the largest paper in the world. But every writer needs a good editor to turn their copy from good to great. Lorraine was the perfect compliment, as her keen eye and suggestions helped transform my book into an Amazon best-seller.

Lorraine’s content edits and recommendations for my article helped elevate the level of writing, produce a logical flow of words, and significantly improve the end product. Her work demonstrated her ability to perceive the principles of my field of competence in no time.
Lorraine’s questions about the subject matter were thought-provoking and led me to changes that vastly improved my article.
Lorraine is experienced and knowledgeable and is a great pleasure to work with. I highly recommend her services.

Before my book was edited by Lorraine, the rank of this book was terrible.
After editing, it sat at the triple #1 spot for weeks! (See Lorraine listed as the editor, too.)

I am thoroughly impressed with how Lorraine edited my book, Leading You Out of the Darkness Into the Light, because she managed to weave the idea of walking a path and taking steps throughout it. Also, she reworked the sections to where they make more sense and are more organized.
One of the happiest things I’ve done in a long time was to click the “pay now” button for her on PayPal.
In short, when you hire Lorraine to edit your own work, you are getting a qualified full service wordsmith who will produce something you will be proud of.

Lorraine is my go-to editor for books, PDFs and some of my blog posts because she has improved and even salvaged most of my works without forcing it to lose its personality.
Thorough and professional, she will surely help you take that next step as an author or blogger.
~ Dave Chesson, Kindlepreneur

One time I wrote a blog post and sent it to Lorraine to get her opinion on it. I thought it was good, but when I got it back from her, I was floored by how much better it was when she had worked her magic on it. She added bullet points, something that I had never managed to master. And, she went out on the web and found a couple of articles to link to the post. Also, she located specific information on dates and the number of views of posts I had mentioned. And she added transitions that made my post flow so much more smoothly. And naturally, she took her red pen to my spelling, punctuation, and grammar without taking away from my own natural writing style. I ended up sending her this email afterward.
You rock! You turned a good post into something really special. I have never had a post that is 7 ways or 9 things before. The additions you made are perfect!
~Mr. Midway, The Midway Marketplace

I hired Lorraine to edit one of my blog posts as a trial assignment for bigger projects down the road.
I didn’t like the way I have written the post – but with a few quick tweaks, she made it read well and easy, excellent job. Everything I didn’t like in the post – she managed to fix with a magic wand. Recommended!

I have worked with Lorraine extensively in 2013 and could not be happier with her attitude, experience, work ethic and the results. Lorraine knows what she is talking about when it comes to editing, as she has a lot of experience in this field. She is also extremely thorough and ensures that every i is dotted and t is crossed.
Communication is also a strong point of Lorraine’s – she will keep you informed of what is going on, and always delivers on time. I would have no hesitation working with Lorraine again and would recommend her as an Editor to anyone.

Lorraine Reguly has all the qualities that writers need–not necessarily what they want, but what they need. None of us likes to have someone point out our mistakes, but that is exactly what is essential if we are going to polish our work to publication readiness. Lorraine’s sharp eyes and attention to detail become the stone that grinds away the impurities. She has an excellent command of language, syntax, punctuation, spelling and grammar, as well as the retention for continuity and cohesiveness.
While working together on Stone’s Ghost, she found errors that many other readers did not, and asked questions about ambiguous points that made me rethink my intent and increase my clarity. Her editing skills are both helpful and essential. I am extremely grateful for her help and would gladly recommend her to any writer.

WRITING TESTIMONIALS:
I have always been skeptical about ordering services online mostly because there is no real metric to compare the quality or decide if it was value for money. However, I took a chance and order consultancy as well as writing services from Wording Well and I have to say I am really impressed.
I ordered consultancy to get help in picking up a college for my studies as well as sorting out other issues and it really helped me.
I also ordered writing services as I needed help to write and proofread my SOP for the college and the turnaround time was amazing. I got the response within a day with helpful comments on how I can improve it. Overall, both the services were worth the money and helped me secure an offer letter from multiple colleges.

Lorraine was a pleasure to work with in writing a guest post for The Wonder of Tech. Her talents in writing may only be exceeded by her professionalism. And, Lorraine was responsive immediately as I reached out to her with edits and suggestions. Her judgment was grounded as she firmly adhered to her position on some points and agreed to changes on other points.
Her passion for her work showed through as her article gained not only strong traffic, but active engagement by the readers. I look forward to having the opportunity to working with Lorraine again..

I’ve worked with Lorraine on creating detailed content for clients.
Lorraine is always responsive, very conscientious, very thorough, and she has a great gift for creating unique and compelling content that engages the reader.
I highly recommend hiring and working with Lorraine for any of your specialized content needs.

Creating content online is a lonely business. But not with Lorraine. She brought me out of a classic “blogger’s slump” and took my business to a whole new level.
I’m not sure what it is—her understanding of audiences, her ability to make a C post an A, or her honesty where others wouldn’t dare—but she is amazing. I recommend you set up a Skype with Lorraine today.

I first worked with Lorraine when she submitted a post for my blog. Her post offered excellent writing tips, and I could see that she really “got” what my blog was about. That post then inspired our collaboration leading a 30-day writing challenge that motivated the participants to write, helped spread the word about my business, and led to several new clients for me. Lorraine’s inspiration was just what my fledgling blog needed to take flight. Her passion for writing shows through in everything she does, and she is a delight to work with.

TESTIMONIALS FOR CONSULTING + COACHING SERVICES (including blog/website services)
I explained to Lorraine that I didn’t want to write a book with all my dark past. I felt it would be counterproductive. Bringing up past hurt and giving it to the world.
But Lorraine not only encouraged me to write my story, and explained that in writing it, that that act would bring healing to me.
So far, she is right. I have written only a handful of pages and it has been helping me to heal from within. Every time I go back to it, it just flows out and I feel the healing take place. I am grateful for the time Lorraine took with me to coach me through that block.~Samantha Smith from Ever Upward Consulting

I started following Lorraine’s blog sites and it’s changed my life. I am a newbie to all things technical, but Lorraine’s how-to blog posts have enabled me to create better posts using new technology.
She has also inspired me by writing about herself in a straightforward, no-nonsense way. She describes her struggles and pitfalls as well as her triumphs and victories. Her eBook “Risky Issues” is a fantastic read. I absolutely lost myself in her writing. And, she has inspired me to finish and publish a book of my own, “Everyone Evelon.”
I have even contacted her for assistance with my blog issues and she responds in a timely manner with encouragement, support, and the right way to solve my issue. I look forward to her blog posts every week.

Lorraine has helped me improve my social media profiles and my Blind Blogger website. I trust her to the point that she has my passwords and is welcome to go into my site at any time to correct problems or make improvements. Also, each time I appear online in a guest post, podcast, or interview, I tag her on Facebook and she automatically updates my “As Seen Online” page without me having to ask her to. She’s always on top of things and I love her for it!

A lot of work went into publishing my book, Leading You Out of the Darkness Into the Light. Initially, Lorraine performed magic on it by editing it. She organized my document into the book it is now. She divided it into chapters, with headings and titles. Also, she clarified my exercises and improved their instructions. She even reordered things in a few places, so that they would make more sense to the reader. Then Lorraine helped me create an author bio page to add to the book. Lorraine was also responsible for creating the front matter of the book (the contents of the copyright page), complete with proper attributions to the right people.
I had help creating the image for my book cover, but was unsure as to whether or not I had full permission to use the image my designer selected. So Lorraine tracked down the original owner, sent her an email explaining the situation, and ended up obtaining permission to use it, provided we credited her with the copyright. It’s a great relief knowing that I haven’t left myself open to a lawsuit and that Lorraine was conscientious enough to make sure of this.
When it came time to turn the ebook version into a print book, Lorraine helped me every step of the way. She solved many problems I had and then made sure each of files were perfect before uploading the different files to the various sites where my book is being sold. She ordered a physical copy and proofed it, too, because there are always last-minute changes to make. Without her help, I couldn’t have made my book available to the world as a print version. I’m grateful for all the work Lorraine did for me, and I’m proud to call myself a published author now!
