We are so grateful to Anne for her guidance and support throughout our book proposal journey. As first-time authors, we were unsure about how to effectively convey and structure our vision. However, Anne walked us through every step of the way with immense patience, care, and attention to detail. We not only appreciated her feedback and suggestions but also valued her faith in us and our concept. We are excited to now be working with a wonderful agent to further develop our book and bring it to market. Thank you, Anne!!!
