I look forward to working with you! Lisa-Beth I am passionate about great writing. I am an avid reader (Fiction, The New Yorker, Atlantic Monthly, etc.) I love working with all kinds of people. It is especially satisfying to work on a writing project from beginning to end. For example, writing a grant for a vital cause is an exciting challenge, but it is even more thrilling when a new non profit agency receives the grant! I welcome all types of clients. The first thing I do is spend at least an hour speaking or meeting in person with a client. This personal conversation is vital to a successful project. Nothing replaces a verbal exchange of ideas and humor to establish a working relationship. Texting is fine as we get going, but an old fashioned conversation is key!!

Ms. Lisa-Beth Harris at Maverick Consulting did a great job editing my recent book. When one is writing, he or she is so familiar with the story that he or she cannot see the details. The writer knows where the story is going, but loses sight of how to get there. Ms. Harris really helps by concentrating on the details that the writer misses. She also loves what she does, and it shows.

Not only did I communicate with Lisa-Beth over the phone and email, but she personally met with me so she was able to write a more comprehensive and personal resume. I will be proud to submit my resume to future employers.
