"The best investment I made in my writing was Marcia Yudkin. I appreciate her insight, her critical thinking and her clarity. Her responses to my work were timely and kind but direct! Just what I needed to be a better writer." - Rebecca Shafir, ADHD/Executive Function Coach
"I asked Marcia for suggestions for improving my recently completed memoir and book proposal because I'd found her thoughtful, insightful, and extremely sharp when she edited a successful book proposal and preface of my monograph. It was a wise investment. Her help was truly invaluable." - Sara Ellenbogen, Writer, Memoir Coach, and Philosophical Counselor
"Thank you for all your comments on my writing. Your critical eye is like Manjushri's sword, cutting through ignorance or lack of enlightenment. [In Buddhism, Manjushri is the Bodhisatva (Buddha-to-be) of Wisdom.]" - Clare Nelson, Austin, TX
