"Deb Sclar is one of those people that you meet every now and then that is a complete master at her craft. It was truly unbelievable for me to watch her at work. I am a very fussy person grammatically, and I could immediately see that Deb knew exactly how to write what I had been painstakingly trying to write for years. Everything that she edited was supreme." Terry Kruegel, Script Writer/Broker
"I have known Deb Sclar for over seven years. As an editor for my publication and numerous other projects, she worked tirelessly to meet impossible deadlines. Her professionalism and accuracy are impeccable. It will be a challenge to find anyone to match her talent and enthusiasm. Deb is a true pearl and I am honored to have made her acquaintance." Rhonda Daley, President - CEO of Daley West Communications Group
"Everyone has an opinion. The challenge with creative consulting is to find a voice you can trust; a voice that has intelligence, experience and sensitivity; a voice which actually offers creative solutions, not just
criticism. As playwrights and producers, we have found that voice in Deb Sclar. Over the years, we have been able to count on her opinion as one well worth listening to; an opinion which leads us to the improvement of our creative expressions as they take form. This is a very gifted woman!" Laura-Lea Cannon & David Tresemer, Ph.D., The New Troubadours Theatre"I hired Deb to edit my first book. Working with her was the easiest part of the tedious process I underwent. She has an incredible eye for detail. Her comments on sentence structure and composition were brilliant! I am in the process of a new book and she is of course in there with me. I always feel supported and I know it will be done right the first time." Stephanie Stone, Author
