Lisa gave me constructive guidance on my book and proposal in such a way that I never felt criticized but always uplifted. When I signed with a publisher, only to have my book orphaned (the editor left), Lisa encouraged me not to give up, and her advice to attend the Harvard book writing seminar helped me get the attention of the senior editor at Yale University Press, who have now published the book and are promoting it heavily. My first review just appeared in Publisher’s Weekly and it’s a winner. Lisa is a terrific coach, and part of the credit for this book belongs to her.
