“Clear and well-explained"
“If you're looking for a freelance editor, I highly recommend Carlisa. She's incredibly thoughtful with her feedback, her prices aren't insane, and her suggests about what needs to be changed and why are clear and well-explained. She seriously gave me what I needed to shape up my novel.”
— Jahkara Smith, writer
“Her end work is fabulous”
“Carlisa is amazing! She always communicates every step of the process and her end work is fabulous! I would definitely recommend her work to every author looking for an edit on their current project!”
— Allison Aldridge, writer
“Carlisa Cramer is godsend. This book has been eating at me for months, and getting her eyes on it has pointed out all the issues that I'd gone blind to. I'm suddenly excited to dive back in and start editing again, something I've been dreading, and just in time for Nanowrimo too! I fully plan on sending some of my rewrites back to her. She gives very balanced criticism, not going easy on me but not just tearing me down either.
She gives good next steps, and I've already started work on restructuring and looked in directions I'd have never looked before! She has also been helpful in steps outside the writing process, telling me tips for navigating the publishing world and finding an agent. In short, Carlisa is well worth the money -- and that is coming from a very poor college student.”

“Smart, respectful, and thorough”
Carlisa is a smart, respectful, and thorough editor. She’s proven herself invaluable to the editorial staff at NSE. She’s a fast learner and a hard worker, and any task will not only be completed in a timely manner, but the project will also be much improved because of her careful work. Carlisa also works very hard to stay up-to-date on trends in the publishing marketplace. She would be an amazing asset to any author or publisher.

“Thorough, helpful, honest, and kind.”
“Carlisa was an absolute pleasure to work with! She was thorough, helpful, honest, and kind throughout all my questions about the process, and endless comments. She was more than willing to answer my personal questions as well, and she was very easy to reach out to during the process itself! I would highly recommend her to another writer and I definitely plan to work with her again in the future. :)”
