“Talya is one of my favorite editors to work with. She’s clear about the scope of a story and supportive when I need to talk through an issue. Her editorial and narrative sensibilities strengthen the drafts I send her way. As a freelancer, a good editor is a godsend, which is why when Talya asks, the answer is yes.”
— Monica Villavicencio, Co-founder of Xerophile Studios
“When I shared an idea with Talya, she would always distill it, make it better, and then see it through to fruition. I really can't say enough good things about Talya, and would work with her again in a heartbeat!”
