My Work

“Ember loves what she does and it shows. She handled my manuscript with compassion and care, and she was really in it with me. She was prompt, took my work seriously, and asked valuable clarifying questions. Her attention to detail and constructive feedback was a true gift. I am grateful for Ember’s skill and devotion to her profession. I could not have asked for a better editor.”

“To write means to edit and edit again and again until you can’t go any further. That’s where an editor comes in. Ember took my manuscript and brought my story to its finale. I so appreciated her comments, revision suggestions, and help with bridges so my ideas are conveyed in a way that moves the story forward and keeps my voice. She is thoughtful and thorough, professional and personal. She helped me get my next book: The Gift From Chiron, ready for publication. I highly recommend Ember Heishman and her editorial services.”
