“Buzzy’s expertise in shaping nonfiction narratives offers a roadmap for writing a great book. Her ideas on how to draft a logline and shape a nonfiction story with an arc are outstanding – practical and inspiring. Her teaching helped me embark on a nonfiction project that sold to Penguin Random House, has been released in hardback and was a finalist for Goodreads Best History/Biography of 2019. I kept Buzzy’s ideas on sticky notes in my office as I wrote.”

“I wanted to send you a personal note of thanks and to let you know that I launched my book on Friday. FINALLY!!! After all these years. What a journey… I confess that during the years your voice often rang in my head and pushed me to work harder and not give up – Buzzy, I cannot thank you enough. I am feeling so grateful for taking the extra time to elevate the final product.”

“It was so concrete (nuts and bolts) and fundamental (people love stories about people) simultaneously. You inspire confidence, you make it seem doable, we relate to you, we feel creative and empowered. Whew! THANK YOU!”

“Buzzy combined the sharp eye of an editor with years of experience as an author to help add dimension and depth to my book proposal. Her frank, intelligent feedback surfaced my courage to write the book that I needed to write, instead of a version that felt safer but ultimately fell short. I highly recommend Buzzy to everyone who is ready to take a deep look at their work and help it resonate in a big way.”
