Insightful, intuitive, and direct. Nancy has all the qualities of an excellent editor! Nancy helped me as a firsttime book author in so many ways. She gave excellent feedback and support with the questions that I had during the editing process. She is insightful and intuitive in her review of my material. I could always count on Nancy to be direct and honest in her feedback. She quickly called my attention to areas where (after feedback from others) my authentic voice as a writer was not shining through and helped me to remedy this. I am GRATEFUL beyond words for her support. She was always very accurate in giving me an estimate on timing for turnaround with my manuscript and very dependable. I now know that I love writing and I believe having an EXCELLENT editor reinforced this. I am looking forward to working with her again on my future projects.

Searching for an editor for your book? Do yourself a favor and hire Nancy Pile. Nancy helped me with my non-fiction book last year, and I could not be more pleased with her service. She outlined how our relationship would work, communicated clearly, didn’t hold back with questions or comments, and made thousands of helpful improvements to my manuscript that helped me reach #1 best seller in my Amazon categories. One section of my book got deep in the weeds in some tax talk, and she helped me simplify the topic so that it could be digestible by a wider audience. She helped keep my grammar in check and gave me so many helpful pointers along the way. All of her work was done in Word via Track Changes, which made it easy for us to work together. 10/10 Nancy is the best editor!

I thought I had written a self-help book, but Nancy told me right away that this was a memoir. She urged that instead of hiding behind famous people’s quotes, I should put more of my own words out there. She encouraged me to speak in my own VOICE, to be totally me, which helped me let go of the need to have a lecturing authoritative voice. I worried that my writing was childish and stupid, but she got my humor, she got my message. No—she helped me understand my own message! She dug deep into my world alongside me and encouraged me to explore further. Nancy transformed my book. She also transformed me.

Writing, I’ve learned, is a very solitary process. But only up to a point . . . [My] book was initially ideas and concepts put together. The magical flowing of thoughts came as a result of Nancy’s coaxing me to provide the connectivity between them. Her brilliant editorial work and wonderful additions have made my passionate writing sparkle. Thank you, Nancy!

—Kathy Archer, leadership development coach & author of the bestselling Mastering Confidence

Nancy was a dream to work with in the editing of my book. Not only did she bring excellence in her craft, but she was professional, communicative, timely, and full of encouraging feedback through the entire process, which I valued tremendously as a first-time author. The suggestions she offered for improvement were very intentional and insightful—never superfluous and always helpful in drawing out the best version of my manuscript. Most importantly to me, she was careful to protect and preserve the unique sound of my voice in my writing, even amidst the edits made along the way. I cannot recommend her highly enough!

As we authors know, it is a highly involved process to transmit our ideas, hopes, and dreams into a manuscript. An integral player in my book-writing journey was my editor, Nancy Pile. When she received the initial draft, she realized that something incredibly important was missing--stories about me. With both professionalism and warm encouragement, Nancy persuaded me that I must include stories about myself to make the star of my book—an amazing friend of mine who survived the Holocaust—shine. Nancy showed me all the places in the book where particular stories about how my friend influenced my life would make my book more engaging. I'm private, perhaps even shy, but I saw her point and came to agree with her. She helped me a lot to transform my "pretty good" original draft of the book into a piece that I'm really happy with. I'm writing this post to highly recommend Nancy as a book editor, especially if you're a first-time writer with a story that's very meaningful to you.

—Theresa Eppich, teacher & author of A Legacy of Love: How a Holocaust Survivor Inspired Me to Live with Greater Freedom and Purpose

Working with Nancy has been an extraordinary experience. She is, without a doubt, an incredibly dedicated and committed professional. From the very beginning, it was clear that she wasn’t just editing my book—she was fully immersing herself in its ideas and messages. Her deep understanding and thoughtful approach meant that she not only grasped the essence of the work but also challenged me in ways that elevated the content to new heights. Her feedback was always insightful, pushing me to refine my thoughts and ensuring that every word resonated with the readers. I had to wait two months for her next available opening, and it was undoubtedly worth the wait. Nancy’s passion and meticulous attention to detail shined through in every aspect of her work. Such dedication is rare, and her commitment to excellence sets her apart as an editor. If you are looking for someone who will not just edit your book but partner with you to bring out its full potential, I cannot recommend Nancy enough.
