Her secret?
A passion for reading, her love of great books and excellent editing skills!
What do people say? Well, here are just a few opinions:
Karen Boston is an absolute pleasure with whom to work. She’s proofed three of my novels and not only has an eagle eye for errors but is flexible and kind as well. I highly recommend her editing services!
International Bestselling Author Melanie Summers
Karen Boston has edited all three of my debut novels. She’s done an incredible job! She’s reasonably priced, thorough, and willing to work with new authors. I have used her three times and I will continue to use her!
Amazon Bestselling Author Raquel DeJesus
I loved working with Karen. She did an excellent job editing my book. She also handled me with patience. LOL! She was a joy to work with and was very responsive. I will be using her again for all my books.
