As an Editor:
“As a publisher, I have worked with Billi Joy on many projects. She is both skilled and determined in her editing—a strong asset for writers and publishers. I have found her to be a vital part of the publishing experience, and highly recommend that everyone get her on their team when they want to publish a book.”

“There’s truth to the saying that we never stop learning. I know this because I have learned so much from Billi Joy. She’s more than an editor—she’s that solid foundation you absolutely need if you want to put your words (your soul) out in front of the world with confidence that they are a reflection of your very best work. I’ve written without Billi Joy in my corner, and I can honestly say that now, having had her there, I wonder how I ever survived publishing before. She makes my writing better, my sentences stronger, and my story a reader’s singular focus—exactly as it should be. Thank you, Billi Joy. I cannot wait to work together again.”

I was highly impressed by the ability she has in finding consistency errors, story-line plot points to refine, and facts that need to be added and adjusted. She is gifted in editing. I feel it is my voice and work, yet I knew it has been edited well. I recommend her as a wonderful Content Editor as well as Copy Editor. You want her on your team.”

“I am writing a novel. When I started, I had no writing experience. I was in need of people, a team, to help me. I found Abba’s Writers, and everyone has encouraged me. Billi Joy’s input has been fantastic; I have learned so much from her challenges and advice, and I no longer can say I don’t know anything about writing my novel. I am becoming an expert, thanks to Abba’s Writers and Billi Joy’s edits.”
