Yvonne Perry of Writers in the Sky has helped me so much with self-publishing my first book, Prayers To Heal and Comfort and to Bless. If it weren’t for all the tips and especially tweaking my introduction, I would be lost. The book is being printed now. You may view the introduction at www.Growthinspeaking.net. Thank you for all you’ve done for me. It is so appreciated.

~ Donna Brown, Growth in Speaking

Wow! Thank you so much! I am pleased with your company! It is refreshing to work with great professionals such as your group of brilliant writers. I am putting the word out to my associates. After my book is completed you may expect an AVALANCHE of business!

Taryn, we loved your script...you are a talented screen writer and the script is very well written.

I am in the middle of a Web site design and construction project. I have looked at so many sites to shop for ideas, but your site is great; easy to navigate and in general very impressive.

~ MC, Carolina Hospitality Brokers, Inc.

I want to congratulate you once more on the excellent work you are doing. Your site is gorgeous, and your interviews and exploration of how to help others is exemplary.

I just read the new chapters. I am still crying. You make it seem like it was only yesterday. I love the way you write...

~ JP

I would like to say a special thank you to Taryn Simpson who was instrumental in helping me get this book together. From our daily email communication—sometimes until the wee hours—through the multiple changes and corrections, her patience and assistance were greatly appreciated.

~ AM

Yvonne, you are a goddess of words and prose. I could feel how you "tapped" into my energy matrix and combined the truth of being. It is a great book. Amazing job!

~ Love, Reggie

Thank you, Yvonne, for such a quick and good job. I always love working with you. I think the brochure is very good.

~PD

Thanks, Yvonne. Your editing and journalistic skills are amazing! The interview is tremendous! We appreciate you so much.

~Al (Howling Owl) Wiseman, Raven Sky Native American Band

Yvonne Perry is a great asset as an editor for someone writing a book; she is thorough, competent, always pushing the envelope to go beyond the expected; responsive; an excellent sounding board; and even has her own writing and publishing experience to draw upon. I heartily recommend her to you.

~ Carl E. Person, Attorney, New York

"Spirit News," this time on page 22, was written by Yvonne Perry, as our own Amanda Fraser is still in India. Thank you, Yvonne, for your excellent work!

~ Patricia Martin, Publisher, Health & Wellness Magazine

We are having excellent success with this media release and I have been receiving Google alerts of its postings… our efforts have increased activity and inquiries from the website substantially. Awesome, awesome job, Yvonne.

~ Rita Alexander ISCI

Yvonne Perry and her team of editors, proofreaders, and ghostwriters have made a tremendous difference in the quality of our author's books. Thanks for the great work!

~ Valerie Connelly, Publisher, Nightengale Press

Yvonne Perry worked on Antara Center’s corporate brochure and marketing flyers for events and classes. She did a superb job, and was efficient and very professional every step of the way. On a personal basis, I believe her to be of good integrity and values. I highly recommend her to you.

~ Janice Mickle, CEO/Founder of Antara Center, Inc.

As a writer and published author of three books, I can honestly say I would never have reached this level of success without the help of Yvonne Perry. Yvonne has helped me on numerous occasions with editing and marketing, as well as being a genuine “cyber” shoulder to lean on when I needed guidance.

~ Carol Denbow, Author of A Book Inside, How to Write, Publish, and Sell Your Story

On August 21, 2008, Irene Watson and I spoke with Yvonne Perry of Writers in the Sky about the subject of freelance writing and how to get started in this rewarding field. She and her team provide ghostwriting and editing for companies and individuals. Yvonne shared with us many insights as an entrepreneur and owner of a small business that does a variety of freelance writing assignments. Specifically, how to get started as a freelancer, the most common challenges you will face, typical misconceptions about the process, writing successful query letters, and how to be a ghostwriter.

~ Victor Volkman, Publisher, Loving Press

Yvonne Perry and the staff at Writers in the Sky has been a tremendous asset in bringing awareness to my work worldwide. They assisted in the proofreading, editing and the cover design for my current book as well as some of my other works. Writers in the Sky is one stop shopping from concept to reality. Their dedication to detail puts them in a league of their own. I support them in their quest to be a step ahead but not a head filled with useless steps. They are my behind-the-scenes guru’s and I appreciate their professionalism.

~ Hal Manogue, Poet and Author of Short Sleeves Insights and Short Sleeves A Book For Friends

Yvonne, you are incredible!!! I am really enjoying working with you! I am constantly and consistently amazed by your talents. You are a genius! I will have to write another book after this just to be able to work with you. Thank you so much!

~ Carl David, Author of Bader Field

Just read your latest newsletter...you and your team are amazing.

~ JGR

Sarah did a great editing job on my article to the Chopra Center. She was very timely with the editing. The suggestions, editing and rewriting were excellent. She has a wonderful personality and is great to work with. I greatly enjoyed working with her and would definitely hire her again.

~ Mary Glesige, Ayurveda and Healing Therapies

Yvonne, thanks for all the support that you have given me over the years and for the fantastic work you have done for me as well. Your creativity is superior to none. After two years, I still receive complements on the Nashville Convention & Visitors brochure and tag line: "Your Best Interest Is My Main Interest" that you and your team did for me. You are my go-to person when it comes to writing and I’m proud to have you as my friend. Thanks for all the wonderful work you’ve done.

~ Bernice Burns, RE/MAX Elite

Barbara, you are brilliant.

~ JR

When you interject a woman’s touch it helps me to see things that I didn’t notice previously. I need to have a woman’s eyes on what I do and your experience is invaluable. Obviously you have read a lot and are familiar with other people’s styles. You can put things into words that I wouldn’t have dreamed of. Love your work Barbara!

~ JF

Wow – we did some excellent work together! Barbara, I can’t thank you enough for your professionalism and your whole approach to the task of fine tuning my work. My thoughts are much more consistent, more focused and overall a whole lot better thanks to you.

~ BG

Wow, Barbara, you are terrific! I will still go through the manuscript like I said, but if your eagle eye didn’t get it I doubt I will find anything amiss.

Yvonne Perry manages her small writing empire with the heart of an Empress. I met her via the Writers in the Sky podcast for Sightlines: A Poet's Diary in January 2007. I was nervous at first, but Yvonne put me completely at my ease. Later, Yvonne connected me to an exquisite sound engineer and project manager, Scott Kidd, and wrote copy for the introduction of my audio book Sightlines: A Family Love Story in Poetry and Music. Another team member, Al Desetta, drafted an approach letter for my novelette Barcelona Pregnancy Club that will prove useful down the line. ~ Janet Riehl

Jessica and Sarah have been absolutely wonderful to work with! I told Jessica the style I was looking for with both Southern Comfort Cleaning and Poochie Couture Pet Sitting and she hit it right on. I couldn't be happier with the outcome of both the design and writing. I will definitely be using them again in future advertising and passing their name on to others. Thanks girls!

~ Autumn Key

Yvonne's interview skills completely put me at ease. I had a wonderful experience appearing on the Writers in the Sky podcast and recommend it to anyone interested in the world of writing. Whether you are a reader who would like to learn about the writer and their work, or a writer looking for inspiration and advice –this is the place to be.

~ Lillian Brummet, co-author of the books Trash Talk and Purple Snowflake Marketing - How to Make Your Book Stand Out in a Crowd, author of Towards Understanding; host of Conscious Discussions.

I am very pleased with the press kit Writers in the Sky developed for my new book. Sarah Moore is a very talented writer and has been a pleasure to work with. In addition to providing excellent content, I was impressed with Sarah’s turnaround time. She met or beat every deadline and that is very rare in today’s business world. I’ve already put some of the press kit materials into use and I’m receiving great response. Writers In the Sky certainly has my highest recommendation.

~ Dennis Snow, Author of Lessons From the Mouse - A Guide for Applying Disney World's Secrets of Success to Your Organization, Your Career, and Your Life

Thank you so much for having me as a guest on the WITS podcast. Your interviewing style is at the highest professional level, making your guest feel right at home while presenting the questions that your listeners would ask themselves. It was truly a pleasure to share the information about the contents of the book as well as the process of publishing and marketing it. Being listed in the WITS newsletter and podcast directory, with their high volume of viewership, is such a bonus. You cover all the bases and I definitely recommend that authors seek your services as a prime marketing resource.

Yvonne is someone who gives unselfishly of her knowledge and time and takes great pride in helping others. One of the best things I ever did for my writing and promoting of my book was to hire Yvonne, as well as many of the members on her team. I have never met Yvonne in person, but feel like I have made a networking friend for life.

~ Barbara Techel, Author of Frankie, the Walk ‘N Roll Dog

I'm introducing all my business associates to Taryn who does phenomenal video trailers!

~ SE

I met Yvonne in the fall of 2005 when we worked on a blog tour for her book Right to Recover. I knew then that she was an intelligent, accomplished, driven woman, and I had a feeling we would become good friends. Since then, we have worked together on several projects and she has been a great host for many authors who tour with me. I know she will follow through on projects and that it will be done right. I'm proud to call her a friend and business associate.

~ Nikki Leigh, Author of Book Promo 101

Yvonne Perry offers her guests one of the most comprehensive interviews around. It is her skill and generosity that set Writers in the Sky apart from others.

~ Jerry D. Simmons, Author of What Writers Need to Know About Publishing

It was my pleasure to work with Yvonne Perry on a podcast interview this past April. My book, Fire Your Financial Planner, became a best seller in less than two months. Yvonne is the consummate professional and a joy to work with. She has been an inspiration to me as I have expanded my reach as a writer. I am privileged to endorse Yvonne Perry. She is the best!

~ Ron Firmin, Chairman Master Financial Services, LLC and President Xrysalis Development Solutions, LLC

Working with Yvonne Perry and Sarah Moore has been a wonderful experience. Yvonne has been a great asset for me in expanding my resources for my newly published children's book titled Queen Vernita's Visitors. Sarah Moore was kind and considerate during my first ever podcast interview. Sarah Moore's book review was professionally done with heartfelt references to my book. Sarah and Yvonne have given great advice and support and I would recommend their services to everyone.

~ Dawn Menge, Special Education Teacher, Severely handicapped M.S. Education Specialist

I signed up with Yvonne Perry for an interview on her podcast and for a book review of my book Life After Death: Some of the Best Evidence. I found the experience with her to be very professional, timely, and exactly as promised. Her interview was well done with the right questions to bring out the best aspects of my book. Her review was quite accurate. I highly recommend her.

~Jan Vandersande

I had a terrific experience appearing as a guest on Writers in the Sky podcast with Yvonne Perry. We had such a relaxed, jovial chat about humor and its importance in the lives of women around the world. Yvonne's site and podcasts provide a wonderful service to writers, no matter what their genre or level of expertise.

~ Vicky DeCoster, Author of The Wacky World of Womanhood and Husbands, Hot Flashes, and All that Hullabaloo! www.wackywomanhood.com

Barbara and Yvonne, I really loved the way my interview turned out. It was great to be able to get the points across about my story that I think are the most important for readers. I really appreciate your support and will spread the word about your great site. Thanks to both of you.

~ Linda Ballou, Adventure travel writer and Author of Wai-nani-High Chiefess of Hawai`i, North American Travel Journalist Association

RE: More Than Meets the Eye

You are so brave to have written More Than Meets the Eye, but I'm so glad you did. I cannot begin to express the healing power it gave me to go on after the suicide of my son. I've sent the book to my father who is still grieving for the son he lost almost three years ago.

Cheers to you, Yvonne.

Considering the subject of your book and the wonderful things you have included...giving many people hope and a new perspective on their own belief system....I'm seeing for you ...wearing the "White Collar" , so to speak. Yes, people are going to want to talk to you about things they haven't been able to discuss with anyone! 

~ A.K.

Your book makes it clear that you know how to provide that comfort and to help people not be afraid for loved ones who have passed.

~ A.G.

Have started reading your book--loving it. Yours is the next step after Betty Jean Eadie's "Embraced by the Light." The world is ready for your book, now.

~ J. M.

I read your book and thoroughly enjoyed it. Your book will be a tremendous success and will be a transition handbook that everyone will want to own. I have always been fascinated with NDE's and as an avid reader can't get enough of it.

~ L.T.

Finished reading your book yesterday! Enjoyed it very much – I feel that I’m beginning to understand a lot more now. Thanks so much!

~ M. P.

It was nice to talk with you at the meeting on Monday. I am fascinated with your book.

~ M. L.

I just now finished listening to your program! …it was wonderful -- even made me cry! Of course, this stuff is so close to my heart and it means so much to me that more and more material is getting out there for people to see/hear. 

~ Rev. Juliet Nightingale

Thank you so very much for your presence and wonderful presentation last night at the Nonfiction Writer's Meetup Group. You were informative, generous with your knowledge and wisdom, and helpful to everyone who attended. It was a great meeting because of you!

I look forward to reading your new eBook as soon as it's available. And trying to apply the information you shared last night to my new marketing endeavors!
