I have had the good fortune of working with Rod Richards as an editor and a creative writing instructor. He is an exceptionally talented and professional writer, editor, and teacher. He has the rare ability to help improve one’s writing skills while at the same time allowing their unique voice and style to shine through. Rod’s supportive approach has helped me to trust my own instincts and to become a better writer. — Craig Sherman, author, no good deed…

“Over the past eleven years, Rod has been my writing mentor. He is a straight shooter. His editing comments are clear and concise. Each word he provides assists the writer to become a better thinker and in turn, a more polished writer. With continued feedback, in class, with emails and invitations to in-person and virtual workshops, Rod keeps his writers up to date. His dedication to helping us become better writers is unparalleled and has enabled me to offer advice to other writers as well. Most helpful, his publishing company has assisted authors to create books that are professional and enjoyable. His expertise, unique eye and perspective adds flavor and spice to the budding and experienced writer‘s works alike. Kudos to a tough but fair critic and an excellent teacher!” — Roseann Bozzone, writer and teacher
