Recommendations:

From a Victoria, B.C. client:
"Marti turned a simple word file into a professionally constructed e-book that is now selling on Smashwords and which instantly achieved premium status. I would highly recommend her services to anyone with the conversion process of their e-book - especially as a first time author.” 

From a Seattle, WA client:
“Marti provided valuable assistance with my eBook project and helped guide me through some layout issues that were holding things up. She is easy to work with and her rates are quite reasonable. I will certainly lean on her expertise the next time around.”

From a client in Texas:
“Marti did a great job of formatting my book for Smashwords.com. She is diligent and very easy to work with - I recommend her to anyone who needs such work done in a timely fashion.”

From a client in the UK:
"Thank you very much for all your hard work and support in the conversion of my book. I am very pleased with the results and recommend you to other authors. You have been patient, helpful, informative, friendly, and above all, professional in your attitude and approach when dealing with my manuscript."

From another client in the UK:
"I choose Marti to format my eBooks from the list on the Smashwords Blog. I did not know anything about her and how pleased I am that I did choose her. As a complete novice I hadn't got an idea how to go about the business of publishing an eBook. I am not technically minded and was at a loss in so many ways. I need not have worried. With Marti's help the whole procedure flowed easily from beginning to end. Now I have two eBooks on Smashwords which I uploaded myself and learned new words along the way; like dashboards and lightboxes and many more. Thank you so much Marti, I really couldn't have done it without you."
