Before meeting Daryl, I was in the dark about how to bring my idea for my book to life. When I say I was clueless, I mean it. I had just a blank google doc and a dream when I began. It was very important to me to remain authentic to myself and feel that my creativity or voice wouldn't get lost in edits or suggestions. Daryl was someone I trusted from the moment I met her—I knew she had my best interest in mind and genuinely wanted to help me bring the dream of my book to life. There's so much that can be overwhelming about writing a book, and she eased my mind about all of that. She is excellent to communicate with as well as extremely personable, something that made such a difference for me as a first time author. Of course, she is a wonderful writer with a great eye for how things can be improved. She helped me evolve my story and was always very honest with me about what she thought could be better—something I appreciated a lot. Fast forward to now, my book is finished and it came out better than I could have imagined when I began the process. Overall, Daryl is an incredibly genuine person who is someone you can truly trust to bring your idea to life.
