Pamela isn't for the faint-of-heart. She will pull apart an essay. If you are looking for someone to simply fix your punctuation and grammatical errors, she might not be the editor for you. If you want someone to improve the content and style of your writing, she is an excellent choice.

Pamela has brought immense professionalism and insight to our brand. She is always open to new topics and researching new subjects and is not afraid to challenge or question an angle we are working. Apart from being an articulate and poignant writer, she communicates with great ease and a sense of humor.

Besides correcting the grammar issues, she makes my complex sentences (a common problem with non-native English writers like myself) more simple, clear and beautiful. Thank you!

Pam provided developmental as well as page edits for my second novel. She critiqued with a sharp eye toward story and structure and provided invaluable commentary on how to improve the manuscript. Her care and concern over my work made the successive drafts easier to pinpoint what areas needed work on. Pam got the manuscript edits to me within two or three weeks. She is a writer's best-kept secret. A book therapist for the novice and experienced writer.

If I could staff a newsroom, Pam Ferdinand would be among my first hires. Smart, resourceful and indefatigable in her reporting, graceful in her writing Pam is an extraordinary addition to the staff, as adept on a breaking news-story, Sunday feature or long-term enterprise series.

I've worked with many editors in my career, and Pamela is one of my all-time favorites. She's such a natural at the editor-writer relationship and makes the feedback process painless and even, dare I say, fun! Pamela is a consummate pro who always improves the end product and builds a sense of camaraderie along the way. I can't wait to collaborate with her again!

I have rarely encountered and collaborated with a writer as impressive as Pam. We hired Pam to write our organization's first State of Our Coast Report across the North Shore region of Massachusetts as part of a project team of coastal experts.
Pam's ability to assimilate and eloquently articulate diverse and nuanced coastal and environmental issues and ideas for a lay audience was amazing and exactly what we needed. Pam was patient, responsive, and was able to turn around high quality drafts at pace that exceeded our expectations.

Pamela did an amazing job editing my first book (and it was a bit of a mess!). It's now released and already has garnered a couple of 5 star reviews - only because I had the very best help editing! She's patient, thorough, thoughtful and very helpful - and fast. Excellent experience. Highly recommend her!

5 Stars - Amazing editing! Worth the extra money. She really took the time to make edits that I would be unable to do myself, and improved my writing tremendously. I am extremely pleased :)

When tackling complex topics, [Pamela] is skilled at distilling key information in a clear and engaging way, and at discerning what will be most interesting to a broad audience. I quickly learned that I could rely on Pamela to meet deadlines; to write with accuracy, sensitivity, and elegance; and to work with me throughout the editing process in a collaborative and thoughtful way.
