“Alysa sees areas that need love and goes above and beyond to not just point out the drawback, but to help brainstorm ways to improve it. I find this incredibly supportive because it adds to a more creative and collaborative process, helping me as the author to be thinking from the right headspace without getting drowned by the sea of edits necessary to really make it say what I want it to say.”
