“More than 12 years ago, the publisher I used to print my first two books went out of business before we could get those books converted to e-books and to be posted on Amazon.com.

At the time, I was desperate until a friend introduced me to book designer/paginator extraordinaire Jacquie Cook, based in Arizona.

Since that time she has been a life saver as well as a creative power both in initiating ideas and following through on all commitments until each project is completed.

In a word, Jacquie is amazing.

And during the time when she was putting together my third book for publication and e-book posting with Amazon, she completed every task before the deadlines she set, and she did that while holding down a job, and taking care of her ailing father.

Last, but not least, Jacquie has worked with more than a dozen fellow authors publishing their works, while having her patience tested by those of us not familiar with the ins and outs of the publishing industry, where she excels.

I thank the Lord for Jacquie, her skill sets and her dedication to me and my fellow authors over the years. I can truly say I’ve never heard one complaint.”
