Pam Lagomarsino of Above The Pages did a great job with review/content editing on my manuscript. Her suggestions and track changes were easy to follow and spot on. Her critiques were balanced with kindness and encouragement. She completed the project in a timely manner and provided great communication. I highly recommend her services.

Pam Lagomarsino, from Above the Pages, edited my last novel, There Abideth Hope, and did a splendid job of making corrections, catching problems in my story, and steering me through the problem areas of grammar and punctuation. She did a thorough job going through the story. I don't think I could have had a better editor working for me.
She always takes the time to let me know how she's proceeding, and she asks questions when she's not sure about something in my story. Pam is the type of editor who will allow the author to keep her style and voice and not try to change it. At the same time, she will make necessary changes (always to be approved by the author) in the text. Pam is a delight to work with as an editor. She has the skills I don't have as an author. Lord willing, I intend to have her edit all my future stories.

I would highly recommend Pam Lagomarsino of Above The Pages. She is an amazing editor. She not only helped improve my manuscript, but she also taught me how to become a better writer through the process. She pointed out where I used passive voice and showed me how to make it active. She tightened sentences and suggested moving a few around to help with readability. She was kind and encouraging at every step. I didn’t know her before working with her, but she is now a friend. I would definitely want her to edit my future books.

Working with a Christian editor like Pam Lagomarsino was great. Her creative suggestions really made my work shine. I was very impressed with how she turned my book into a 21-day devotional. Incredible talent. I had no idea how to do it myself. Thank you, Pam. I am looking forward to working with Pam on future books.

If you are looking for an editor, I highly recommend Pam. She edited my workbook for me (Marriage God's Way) and went above and beyond. I would've paid more than what she charged me. I hired her again recently for my next book, Enduring Trials God’s Way, and again she did a fantastic job. She responds quickly to messages. She strives hard to be EARLIER than deadlines. Although we didn't know each other before, she became a personal friend and I look forward to using her on all future projects. Pam prayed for me, my family, my work, and thanked me for my prayers for her work editing. When my dad had cancer, she prayed for him. My wife is pregnant, and she prays for her. She is a treasure.
