Editorial Testimonials

“Over the years I’ve worked with very good editors at major houses and I’d easily place William Horner among the best. His energy and enthusiasm are remarkable, and I’ve never had a more meticulous copyedit.”
Elaine Cunningham, New York Times bestselling author of Shadows in the Darkness

“I’ve been in this business thirty years, I’ve worked with many of the top science fiction and fantasy editors, and I’m here to tell you that William Horner is one of the best. If you ever get the chance to work with him, jump at the opportunity.”
Lawrence C. Connolly, author of over 40 short stories and novellas, and of Veins

“William Horner helped sharpen the direction of my plot, and had some incredible insights into my characters. My novel is much more focused and has an added depth that wouldn't have occurred without his feedback.”
Patrick Parr, ESL Lecturer at Central Washington University

“William’s dedication to professional copyediting is refreshing. He really cares about the job, and this showed in the final product. Once my story was published, I had confidence that it read as I had originally intended.”
James R. Cain, editor of Dark Animus and author of Ek Chua

“Even stories published by famous editors sometimes contain glaring errors. The only story I published from 2003–2005 that I can look at with perfect joy was edited by William Horner. The story that he pulled out of me is better than it would have been had he not loved my story enough to work so patiently to perfect it.”
Carole McDonnell, author of “Black is the Color of My True Love's Hair” in Fantastical Visions III and Wind Follower
