CLIENT FEEDBACK
5 stars all round, the manuscript is 100%. You certainly have the rare ability to understand relatively complex concepts and bring them to light. You have really brought the narrative to life. And thanks for doing your own research to add to mine. Overall brilliant — well done.
—Anthony, retired engineer (on book about the creation of Stonehenge)
Well done. From my standpoint as a reader ‘from the general public’, I would be intrigued to read more, and I am sure fans of Mel’s will love it. I feel you have addressed well many issues that will make the book a success to an even wider audience than fans of the music. I like your style.
—Film-maker Barry Chattington, who has frequently produced content for Paul McCartney (on memoir of Mel Gaynor, the former drummer of Simple Minds)
I loved it! It is really well written, and I love the examples and analogies. Thank you very much for your help and congratulations, I was really impressed!
—Victor, public figure in the banking sector (on book on best management practices)
The book looks amazing! It really captures our history.
—Tom, owner of well-known ice-cream parlour for whom I wrote, designed and self-published a book to celebrate its 100th anniversary
It was like, wow, I can’t believe this is my story — it’s really good.
—Ellen, French government official (on her autobiography)
I have given this third installment an F — actually three F’s: fresh, fact-like, and funny. Your gift for dialogue continues to shine through. And you demonstrated in the interview what I would say is one of the talents, perhaps rare, health professionals don’t seem able to appreciate — accessibility. I am awed by the accuracy of the people, places and their moments in time. Masterful job!
—Gary, psychiatrist, Minnesota (on historical novella set in World War II)
It’s obvious that you have done a considerable amount of research into the period and the cultures. It reads very well, and I am very pleased with what you have done. The historical references are in themselves very informative and interesting.
—Berkeley, business owner, England/Spain (on novel set at the turn of the 20th century)
David, it’s amazing — I love it! More than perfect. Thank you
—Michelle, London (on novel set in the early 2000s)
Very happy with all this.
—Roger, CEO of marketing company (on academic book about neuroscience in relation to marketing)
I really like the tone.
—Mike, successful entrepreneur (on children’s book)
Thanks a lot for the article — it is excellent.
—Aramide Akinniyi (on newspaper article I wrote on behalf of his Africa Awakening Movement)
Brilliantly written, funny and totally captures me! How come I want to know what happens next when I already know! I love it!
—Kris, successful trader in the City of London (on memoir)
I am loving it, David!
—Fatima, TV news reader in the Middle East (on motivational book)
Wonderfully put together! Reading the last chapters of this book brought back many happy memories and also sad ones. Fighting back the tears…
—Ceci, businesswoman, China (on memoir)
Words fail me. With God’s name on the tip of my tongue, your first few sentences brought tears to my eyes. It took me some time to continue reading. I am blown over. Fate has certainly connected me to you to write this book. Thank you, your writing makes me relive the journey as if is just unfolding.
—Sanjeev, British doctor (on autobiography about personal tragedy)
Great job. I really love it. You have woven so many elements into it, and I think you really found the voice of the characters, and injected nice elements of humour as well. I really enjoyed it. You have given it life, whilst also lending some historical context. I can see you have really studied the materials I sent you and drawn on elements very deftly. I am very happy indeed – thank you!
—Matthew, British aid worker in Kenya (on novel based on a 19th-century diary)
I really liked it. Thank you very much for your work. You have put a lot of meat on the story.
—Guillaume, French businessman, Bahrain (on thriller revolving around John F. Kennedy’s assassination)
