Elena was THE BEST to work with. It is surreal to now be a published author. Her work was a catalyst for me in this process. She took my clean manuscript and brought it to life in the form of an actual book! . . . This being my first book, I had a ton of questions. She put me at ease, answered all of my questions, and worked on time and on budget. I could not have imagined working with anyone else.
