Candace Kearns Read, an accomplished writer herself, read the early drafts of my manuscript and copyedited the later drafts. Her criticism and positive encouragement helped me see the book through to publication.

I had no idea how much work writing a book was at the start of this project. Without the support of my brilliant writing and research partner, Candace Kearns Read, my book would never have come to life

Candace Kearns Read has a knack for whipping a weak script into shape. She is tough, but in the kindest way.
