Testimonials
Jashodhara changed the novel I had been writing with a single question, "what is the book about?".That set me off on a quest - to find the universal in the particular, made it a much better piece of work, and perhaps made me a much improved writer. Before Jashodhara, I was a mere wordsmith. After her edits, I learned about narrative and character arcs, and subtext. The months I worked with her was my personal anno domini, the border separating all that was from all that could be.

Jashodhara is a rare commodity -- an editor whom the writer can trust completely. Her quiet yet firm interventions will certainly improve your book in every possible way -- plot, pace and language. More importantly for a writer, it will give you a different perspective on your writing that you had not thought of.
