“Human consciousness comes into the world as a flaming ball of imagination. Everything invented by man, physical or mental, is the fruit of someone’s imagination.”

“I had the pleasure of working with Lisa when she acted as a contributing editor for McGraw-Hill on the 5th edition of the Booth’s Medical Assisting Textbook, of which I am a member of the author team. I found Lisa to be very detail-oriented (a must for an editor) and an absolute pleasure to work with. Deadlines are always difficult and in this edition, some chapters required a lot of sometimes confusing rework and reorganization. Lisa always stayed on task and was unendingly encouraging and positive about the process…I highly recommend her and hope I have occasion to work with her again.”
“Highly regarded for her outstanding writing and editing capabilities, Lisa is the consummate professional. She has the rare ability to transform hard-to-understand material into clear, concise prose that people can easily read – and want to keep reading. Thanks to her stellar skills, she has been a valuable asset to prestigious organizations like Cleveland Clinic. While working with Lisa for our mutual client, Cleveland Clinic, she impressed me with her writing – which can have a creative flair – and with her collegial, positive and friendly nature. I would wholeheartedly welcome the opportunity to work with Lisa again, and highly recommend her to others.”

“Lisa Bess Kramer is not only valuable as a developmental and copy editor, she is invaluable. Her incisive notes have helped me learn to better define scenes, present characters more deeply––by both highlighting where I fall down, and where I shine in the same manuscript. Her line edits are consistent across a manuscript, she honors a schedule, and yet despite that professionalism, she is supportive and warm. As a result, Lisa has my trust, and my heartfelt endorsement as both an editor and lovely person.”

I’m sure you’ve heard the phrase, “fake it ‘till you make it,” and I’m here to show you how. It might feel a lot like lying to act confident when you’re not, or trying to convince people that you have what it takes, when you’re not even convinced yourself. But getting anywhere in life depends on how willing we are to do things that we don’t feel like doing. Such as pulling ourselves out of bed on a rainy morning to enter the rat race of rush-hour gridlock.
