In Appreciation...
"In writing my memoir "Life Savors", Marcia was invaluable in helping me. Marcia, your clarity of vision in terms of a "through-line" was immensely helpful, and your suggestions, like "less of a travelogue" and "more Buffy – maybe dialogue" and "keep the focus" – were important to my efforts. You gave me a sense of purpose when I was discouraged and a sense of pride in what I was trying to do. As a memoirist "consultant" you are the best!" Elizabeth (Buffy) Cooke
"Dear Marcia: How do you do it??? How do you manage everything so smoothly? What a very gifted person."
