    "Joy is one of the best writer/editor/coaches on the eastern seaboard. I have worked with her and have been impressed with the respect she shows her students, for their vision and their authenticity. She prizes originality and thoughtfulness, and is especially good at creating "mind pictures" for the reader to see. I can see how her skills would be helpful recommend her to any aspiring writer -- beginner, master, or like most of us, stuck in the middle and trying to communicate better.
