Testimonials from Satisfied Customers


"Kelly is the 'official proofreader and editor' on ALL of my books. I would never write a book without having Kelly in my corner. One of the key points that makes Kelly stand out is that she not only makes the book error proof, she actually 'reads' the book and asks me questions about what she's read. This helps me address the needs of my audience better because if Kelly is asking a question, tens of thousands of others will be asking the same question. I have added entire sections to my books because of questions Kelly has asked me. I can honestly say that my books are more complete because Kelly went the extra mile (extra light year!) for me."

"Kelly Bixler possesses a keen ability to help even the best writer improve his or her work.  She has a deep appreciation for the mechanics of writing.  However, she also takes time to get to know the author and his or her piece in an effort to maximize the connection being made with any number of audiences."
        Todd C. Ream, Associate Professor of Humanities, John Wesley Honors College, Indiana Wesleyan University


"Kelly Bixler's proofreading of my first book, Healing America's DNA, was a lifesaver. Writing a book full of history and theology was challenging enough. Being able to detect and fix the innumerable typos and formatting errors proved to be beyond me. Just when I thought I had caught and corrected them all, more would appear, thanks to Kelly's keen eye for details and her experience in formatting documents. I now know that being an author does not mean you have to be a proofreader. Save that job for people like Kelly—who is both!"
        Bob Fox, Pastor, Author Healing America's DNA 


"Kelly took a rambling manuscript and turned it into a directed, clean, easy read.  Thank you Kelly for making Loving Your Layoff a polished finished project. Kelly Bixler is a wonderful editor.  I thank her for making my writing look better than it is."
        Karen Squarrell Shablin, Author Loving Your Layoff


"Kelly Bixler has an eye for words that don’t belong, and for those that should! I’ve enjoyed having her involved in two of my books. They read better because of her, and are read wider as well."
        Dr. Jerry Pattengale, Assistant Provost for Public Engagement, Indiana Wesleyan University


"When I undertook the writing of my first book and needed a proofreader, a colleague recommended Kelly Bixler. I owe my colleague a debt of gratitude. I found Kelly to be very professional in her approach to the project, from establishing the contract to keeping deadlines to maintaining regular communication with me, etc. Kelly's proofreading skills are excellent. I know that the final draft I submitted to my publisher was a much better manuscript for her expertise."
        Dr. Constance Cherry, Associate Professor of Worship, Indiana Wesleyan University, Author The Worship Architect


"Thank you, Kelly, for your professional proofreading work on my recent book, Explorer's Guide: Starting Your College Journey with a Sense of Purpose. Your sharp eye for detail, grammatical precision and thoughtful edits have all proved invaluable in improving my manuscript. I also appreciated the quick turnaround. I would highly recommend your services to anyone in need of a proofreader."
        Dr. Bill Millard, Executive Director, Center for Life Calling and Leadership, Indiana Wesleyan University, Author Explorer's Guide: Starting Your College Journey with a Sense of Purpose


"Kelly has the eye of an editor and the heart of a teacher.  I recommend her skills to anyone interested in writing clean, concise prose."
        Brian Fry, Professor of Sociology, Indiana Wesleyan University


"Kelly edited my book, Choosing Health. Kelly has terrific attention to detail. She was very timely and easy to work with. She caught so many grammatical errors that I had missed. I'd definitely recommend her."
        Rebecca Rovay-Hazelton, Functional Nutritionist and Wellness Consultant, Author Choosing Health

"After an exhausting search for a local editor, Kelly was referred to me by her uncle, whom I know. The concern that Kelly lives in Indiana and I live in Pennsylvania was quickly put aside. After Kelly edited my first chapter I realized Kelly's talent. While I consider myself a very good writer, Kelly applied her imagination and skills to allow my book to flow much better. The majority of the work has been via email but Kelly and I have spoken via telephone when working out 'rough' spots. This fact stresses Kelly's professionalism and gift. Her fees are very reasonable for the high quality of work. I recommend Kelly highly!"

"Kelly provided an extremely valuable proofreading service for me when I wrote my doctoral dissertation.  She was thorough and knowledgeable about APA formatting.  More importantly, she was easy to work with and extremely flexible in meeting the demands of my accelerated schedule.  She was very important in helping me write an accurate and quality dissertation." 
    Jay McNaught, doctoral candidate, Indiana Wesleyan University

"I don't intend to write another dissertation as long as I live, but if I did I would once again use Kelly Bixler as my editor. Kelly's professionalism and timeliness are only surpassed by her editorial prowess. I wholeheartedly recommend her services."
    Jeff Waibel, doctoral candidate, Indiana Wesleyan University

"I really appreciated the work that Kelly did when she edited my dissertation.  I am most grateful for her ready response to my need for “speedy” work and quick turn around.  Kelly was efficient, encouraging, and extremely professional.  She was eager to meet the requirements of the project and my chair.  She provided guidance and coaching that I deemed invaluable.  Many thanks, Kelly."
    Margie Baldwin, doctoral candidate

"Kelly, I really appreciate your proofreading ability. I wasn’t sure going into the process if I needed a proofreader because so many people had read my work prior to you getting it. However, your attention to detail around word choice and grammar was quite valuable, improving the overall quality of my dissertation. I also found great value in your knowledge of and ability to interpret and apply APA. Finally I thank you for your willingness and your ability to work with me under a tight timeline.  Your proofreading made my end product better. Thank you for your efforts."
    Scott Livingston, doctoral candidate, Indiana Wesleyan University

"Kelly, I was pleased with your service and I will pass on your info to my colleagues. Thank you for your quality work."
    Dr. Ulf Spears, President, Strategic Leadership Int'l

"Kelly gave us the peace of mind we were looking for. Her attention to detail, her insightful suggestions, and her quick turn-around all helped us get “The Monster Realm" out on time — and in professional shape. When book 2 in the series comes out, we’ll definitely be coming back to Kelly!"
    Nara Duffie, author The Monster Realm


"Kelly is the perfect editor and proofreader. She turned around each of our websites in under a week – giving us useful feedback, sending instant action items, and improving the overall quality of our web copy. I’m thankful for all Kelly has done, and definitely plan to continue working with her in the future."
    Tom Adolph, Marketing Specialist, New Market Health, Real Advantage Nutrients, North Star Nutritionals, and Best Health Nutritionals.
