Translation Bilingual Ecuadorian Cookbook
We are almost done with our project and Debra has been fantastic to work with. She has thoroughly reviewed and edited our work and has provided us with both a clean, finished copy and a copy with her notes and track changes for review. She has also provided us with suggestions to improve the work and flow and communicated with us in a timely and honest manner. We would definitely work with her again.

I was very impressed with Ms.Sanchez's work. I employed her help in formatting my first book and she did so promptly and professionally. She was very open to contact and kept me well up to date on all of the progress she made. I would highly recommend her and I will be sure to utilize her services again.

She is proficient in grammar, sentence structure, and critical analysis.
She has been invaluable in assisting me publish my first two books.

Deb Sanchez consistently surpasses my expectations. From cover design and word layout to considerate editing, she can't be beat. I have three short story collections through Tree Shadow Press that she edited, formatted and designed the cover. I couldn't be happier with how they turned out! In fact, my second collection, Herd of Nightmares, won a TAZ award and a nomination for horror cover of the year!
