Elana is a terrific editor and organizer and a very pleasant person to work with. She really took charge of a challenging project; the creation of a custom-published magazine about careers for the Department of Labor called "In Demand." Elana edited three issues--careers in advanced manufacturing, careers in science and technology, and careers in biotechnology. She scouted out the story ideas and found and guided freelancers developing the stories. She also worked with graphic designers to create the look of the magazine for a very demanding client. Throughout, Elana demonstrated intelligence and attention to detail. And she was calm and cheerful even during tense moments on deadline. I give her a high recommendation!

Our company publishes books for the computer industry, specializing in Novell products. I have worked with Elana for several of my published titles. She has delivered very good quality work when editing our titles. Since we are based in the Netherlands and are non-native English speakers, it was great that she was very patient with us and gave us great directions in improving our writing throughout the projects. It was also very good that she was able to keep up with our very tight schedule.

When I was writing my book on semiconductor engineering, Elana helped me in editing my book. English is my second language. Sometimes, writing in English can be difficult for me in some specific situations; For example, when I am trying to express or explain something that is abstract. Elana has been a great help along the course of writing my book with her patience and professional writing skills. I will certainly come back to her when I work on my next project.
