Testimonials

Ruth’s editing expertise was invaluable to my film project. Her ability to clearly see and put into place the complex narrative of my documentary allowed me to successfully complete a three-year project.

Derek Burrows - Documentary Filmmaker "Before the Trees Was Strange"

Ruth’s copy-editing and writing talents provided the backbone for all Kids Giving Back communications. I have been very fortunate to use Ruth’s “magical” writing skills over the past 10 years. Many a time I would send through a document, a grant proposal, a letter or a speech and ask her to spin her magic and that’s exactly what she would do. It really brings me ease of mind knowing she is always there.

Carole Schlessinger, Co-Founder, Kids Giving Back

Ruth has been proofreading my academic essays for a number of years now, and I value her work highly. Not only does she proofread in the strictest sense, but she also offers insightful feedback as to how the content can actually be improved. After being edited by Ruth, my writing feels much more incisive and crisp. She works to deadlines and on the occasions that we need to speak, she is warm, respectful and professional. I can wholeheartedly recommend Ruth, and I wish her the best of success.

Rajan Rai, Grad. student and Educator

Ruth worked with me on some specialist text of my website that I wanted to read more simply without being simplistic. Ruth worked with me on zoom and made it fun and interesting to play ball with the ideas together and then cut to the chase and turn my waffle into beautiful, clear writing. Ruth has a keen ability to get to the essence of complex concepts and make them flow on the page. Her turnaround time was like quicksilver. Unreserved yes!!
