"Thanks to many years experience and her own native brilliance, Susan Gunter is a deep reader of prose. She identifies underlying themes and structures, contradictions and places for enlargement. Her feedback gives writers revision strategies--and the encouragement to employ them."
Natasha Saje, Poet in Residence, Westminster College
"Susan Gunter is a gentle and efficacious editor with a great sense of humor and style and a deep feeling for language. She can see the beauty in an imperfect piece and bring out its best qualities, noting the good, the bad, and the ugly, and picking up everything from copyediting errors to obscure references. Fast, enthusiastic, informed, professorial (and professional), Susan edited a 65,0000-word novel in less than a week, providing detailed line-by-line notes on narrative, vocabulary, and jokes. She pointed out good scenes and those that needed more work, and because she so obviously understood what I was trying to do, I believed her when she said some things fell short. In other words, this is a woman you can trust with your work. She will handle it intelligently and with care and your writing will benefit enormously from her editing."
--Ephrat Livni, former Google attorney and ABC's Jerusalem Project correspondent
