Feedback from doctoral researchers, universities and academic authors I’ve worked with.
Doctoral writing coaching and workshops
Lizzy is an invaluable resource for PhD candidates! She has an exceptional ability to identify and support students’ specific writing needs. I took Lizzy’s course on writing in 2023, but I still communicate with her regarding other writing support help such as proofreading in which she is extremely helpful. I’m also registering for a different course soon ‘PhD writing accelerator’. She is skilful, kind, supportive, and professional. She understands the nitty gritty details of a PhD journey and how some students feel during this challenging but motivating time. My writing level improved a lot since I was working with her. I’m thankful for her efforts and glad to have the opportunity to gain a better perspective on writing. I also learned a lot from her podcast ‘Let’s Talk Writing’.

I had the pleasure of working with Dr. Lizzy to have my dissertation proofread, and I must say that during our time together, she demonstrated professionalism and creativity. The time I spent working with her was nothing but pleasurable. She comes highly recommended from me to anyone and everyone.

Dr. Lizzy is a delight to work with every time, and even after I finished my work with her, she was available and near to reach out and help. When editing and proofreading, she is quite meticulous. … Highly recommended.

Other writing courses and workshops
Lizzy’s blogging course was extremely useful. She offered tips on best practices, practical guides and tools to plan and launch a successful blog, and designed homework assignments to get us moving forward with real posts. She provided examples of blogs that were relevant to the work of each student in her workshop and was generous in offering personalized feedback. I would do this course again and highly recommend it, whether you are a beginner or someone with prior blogging experience.

Lizzy is a thoughtful teacher with relevant, easy to understand content and valuable practice steps for true learning and implementation. Her course took me from zero knowledge of blogging to a published blog and stockpile of posts ready to be published!

Other writing projects
As a first-time author, I was given valuable advice, not only about my book and on how to keep writing, but also to start my author platform.
As a result of our sessions, I started writing consistently and would encourage anyone thinking about 1:1 book coaching to get in touch with Lizzy to get started.
Thank you Lizzy, I love your excellent communications and being willing to look over my work to provide a better direction for where my draft is heading.

It was such a pleasure working with Lizzy. She was personable and very reliable. She took the time to understand my writing and the thoughts I wanted to convey while giving me feedback. Her editing made my book stronger and more professional. She always answered my questions and explained the editing process. She maintained a professional timeline and completed all edits in a timely manner. I would definitely recommend Lizzy to other authors. She will give life to the words you have written.

Lizzy, I truly LOVED your writing event! You provided such a fabulous resource to share with us. It was the simplicity of your questions that helped me to gain more clarity on how to describe my book. Thank you so much. You have so much to offer writers!!
Connie Wirth, Writer and speaker
Lizzy was quick and insightful. She pointed out the strengths of my writing. When she told me about possible challenges, Lizzy explained why, gave specific ways to make changes, and was kind. I highly recommend Lizzy as a beta reader!
Jen Ferris, PhD, writer and parenting expert
Lizzy has a wonderful way of looking at content and zooming in on where language and sentence structures can be ‘cleaned up’ and made more effective. Thank you so much for your help with this Lizzy and for your super speedy response!! I couldn’t have done it without your phenomenal editing skills!! I love how you have tightened the piece up, so thank you again! I look forward to working with you again soon, Lizzy.
