Testimonials
I hired Abi to help me tackle a rewrite of a novel I’d been working on for 22 years (no joke!): a complex memoir in collage based on prison letters and stories of 3 generations of Italian and Dominican immigrants. In one month, Abi’s wisdom and insight guided me to the finish line – rethinking flow, narrative structure and possible red herrings. Without Abi, I would never have known that my book could be the funniest love story never told.
