| "I never thought I would describe a ghost
story mystery as "heart-warming," but that's exactly what Kayak
Reef is! A great adventure, a fun read, with a surprise twist
at the end." —Susan Branch (Author of Heart of the Home series books published by Little, Brown & Company.) |
|||||||
| "Jill, I am very grateful for
the cover design and interior you developed for Kayak Reef.
I must say, the ingenious editing was even more overwhelming.
Great job! You are an example of integrity, not only in the way this book's
timely schedule was completed, but in your dedication to me, a customer.
Thank you." —Bradley J. Stewart (kayakreef.com) |

| "Being from a divorced
family, this book touched me in so many ways. If there was to be a positive
spin on something
as negative as divorce - this is it! I wish I had such a book growing up
- it teaches you to look at what good could come out of a bad situation." —Leah Remini, actor, The King of Queens |

Billie’s remarkable spirit and applauds her personal victories.… Billie’s
World is a glowing debut novel written for ages 9–12.” —Midwest Book Review. To read the complete review, click here. |

| "It is a scary prospect
to let someone else touch your manuscript. Jill
Ronsley took my 'baby,' Billie's World, and handled
it with tender loving care. Throughout the entire editing process, Jill was there
supporting my book. Jill was always responsive and met all deadlines. There's
no doubt I will use Jill's expertise on my next novel. Thank you, Jill, for being
a part of my first publishing
experience. You're the best!" —Kim Grossman Finkel, author |
