Satisfied Clients

"I have been working with Geoff Aggeler for nearly a year. Not only is he a superior editor who catches all my grammatical errors, typos and faulty word choices, he does much more. Geoff is a tremendous help in character and plot development. More, he takes the time to re-write passages and offers very constructive examples of how I can better tell my story. Because of his extensive background as a successful published author, he suggests approaches that might better please publishers and agents in the development of my work. Additionally, because of his own profound knowledge of the literary world, he can relate my work to that of successful writers by suggesting methods and techniques that have worked for others. I have had occasion to use the Spanish language, and even some German in my dialogue, and he has been able to correct some of my mistakes in those languages as well. Perhaps the most satisfying thing about working with Geoff is that he writes extensive responses to my work that are both instructive and encouraging. He is the best editor I have had the pleasure of working with."

"Geoff and I have been working together now for several months, and I am extremely pleased with his help. He is detailed, making suggestions for improvement, sometimes questioning my ideas, but always encouraging. As an 85 year-old, writing a memoir of her teenage years is no small task for both of us. I have to wrack my brain, and Geoff has to sometimes ask, 'Is this the way it really happened?' The book is progressing very well. I am so happy I found him. I would not hesitate to recommend Geoff to my writing friends."

"I am grateful to Geoff Aggeler, who helped me considerably with my forthcoming book WINTER SEEDS, despite short notice and a tight schedule. I needed someone to help me clarify my points and polish my phrasing. That's what Geoff provided—with panache."

"Geoff Aggeler not only lends his editing talent and vision to a book, he commits all of his knowledge and personal gifts to help make a project successful. In 16 years of journalism experience, working with Geoff has been one of the most personally and professionally rewarding experiences I have had."

—Don Hudson

"From my first conversation with Geoff Aggeler I  knew that he had the writing ability, knowledge of philosophy and literature and experience to make my book come alive. He is brilliant, his edits challenged me and he had a deep understanding of my message. Although my book is psychological non-fiction he not only got it but amplified the material. I highly recommend him as an editor".
