“Your Festival Focus feature is SPECTACULAR, so beautifully written!
”
“In 50 years of magazine and book publishing experience, I observed and managed many writers and editors. Sarah is one of the best. Her strong capabilities include idea generation, writing and editing, the business of publishing, sales and public relations, and, always, a positive and constructive attitude.”
“Sarah’s intelligence and thoughtful approach are apparent on any project we engage her with. She has managed client interviews for us and uses her copywriting skills to turn the interview into a great story for our marketing efforts. Her skills with editing and content writing are consistent and she brings additional thought to each project to enhance it. Sarah is fabulous to work with and her collaborative style makes it easy.”
“I have partnered with Sarah on the writing and editing of garden stories. Just as each garden is distinctive in its style and approach, so too is Sarah’s way of telling its story. It’s where her background in design and writing comes together! Whether it is building upon an initial outline or starting a story from scratch, Sarah has the rare ability of communicating at both a high, conceptual level, but also in a manner that is approachable and vivid.”
“When Betty Ford Alpine Gardens decided we needed a book to tell our story, we looked to Sarah to tell it. She brought a vision and a team to make that vision a reality. With her strong intellectual grasp of the complexities of the botanical world and her down-to-earth approach, it was a real pleasure to work with her.”
“Sarah is an experienced and effective writer. She handles complex subjects effectively, and the results from her organization and presentation of materials show in her work product.
”
“It’s pretty incredible the journey, the feeling, the story you can create with a pen.
I feel lighter and more connected to the Gardens’ and our work every time I read something you’ve written. Your words are a gift to all of us.”
“A great story—well told, well documented graphically, and well executed.
I am so very grateful that you agreed to take part in telling this story, and that includes my gratitude for the incredibly valuable contribution you have made to the benefit of the Gardens.”
