I’ve enjoyed working with Briana St. James, as my editor for seven years. Whether tweaks are big or small, she’s able to clearly point what needs to be done and then leaves it to the author to fix them in her own way. Bree has always helped me make my books the best they can be.

In the ten years I worked with Briana, I found her to be a great partner during the editing process. I don’t need micromanaging when it comes to my editing, and I liked how respectful she was of my content. She was quick to point out problems to make the story stronger/cleaner, yet when she made suggestions, she left it to me to correct those issues, rather than stepping in and taking those choices out of my hands. In short, her input helped enhance the creative process and resulted in a better story. She’s a clear communicator, responsive and prompt – a professional on every level.

Briana St. James is more than an editor. I consider her a valued mentor and a partner. Her insights about writing and SciFi erotic romance are invaluable.
