Here’s what writers are saying about Editor 911:

Margo Dill has been a member of my local critique group for many years. With her
help, dozens of us have found markets for our work. Myself and another member now
have contracts with an agent because of the valuable comments Margo gave us as
we wrote our novels. Her comments are always made with kindness and the true
desire to help our writing be the best it can be. She is also very willing to heap praise
on a writer when the work merits it. I’d recommend Margo to anyone who needs either
a complete edit or just a little help to get going in the right direction with their work.
-Luella Turner, Novelist

Margo Dill is a highly skilled and expertly qualified writer, teacher, editor, speaker, judge and critique giver. I’ve known Margo for nearly a decade. During that time she has volunteered her service as a judge in several writing competitions sponsored by Saturday Writers—a chapter of the Missouri Writers’ Guild. In addition to serving as a judge, she provided feedback to encourage young writers to fulfill their writing dreams. Over the years, she has provided excellent feedback for my own work as well as the work of members of Thursday Writers (a critique group to which we both belong). In providing feedback, Margo has the uncanny ability to see the big picture, while also showing amazing attention to detail. Because of her contributions, almost everyone in our critique group (about 12 members) has been published in some media. Margo’s critiques are thorough and candid, yet gentle and encouraging. She has excellent organizational skills and a detailed knowledge of the writing fundamentals, such as: grammar, punctuation, spelling and sentence and story structure. She also knows writing techniques, dialogue, style and those intangibles that make her own writing, and the writing, of those whom she critiques, shine. In addition to all those qualities, Margo also follows through on everything she does. When Margo promises to do something, you can guarantee she will do it–and give even more than she promised.
-Donna Volkenannt
Former President, Missouri Writers’ Guild

Thanks for your expert help on my published nonfiction work.
-Doyle Suit, Freelance Writer

Margo edited and reviewed my first term paper when I was a new grad student. She paid special attention to the areas I asked her to focus on and provided a very detailed and organized list of corrections I should consider. Her comments definitely improved the quality of my paper.
-Natalie, University of Illinois Grad Student

I had no experience in writing when I decided to write my memoir. Feeling that I needed some help, I turned to Margo. She was an excellent proofreader and writing coach. She was always pleasant to work with and always delivered what I asked for in a timely, professional manner. She was honest in her feedback, and I could not have completed my book without her help. She is creative and has a gift for putting thoughts into words. In addition to my book, she helped me prepare a query letter, a synopsis, and a resume. I had a positive response from the query letter she prepared, and my manuscript is currently being reviewed by a publisher. I have no hesitation in recommending Margo for all your writing needs.
-Margaret Norton, Memoir Writer
