<Pamela Mandell's>suggestions were. . helpful, considered, and professional. She helped lift the narrative to a higher, clearer, more accessible place. I can earnestly say that without her assistance, I would not have landed the excellent agent I have now. . .She provided the push that made all the difference. I highly recommend her as an editor—almost an accomplice—in your writing endeavors. —Christina Schelsinger, forthcoming memoir

Pamela Mandell, a highly skilled editor. . .appeared in my life at one of my serious low points and gave me encouragement, technical insights, and . . .red-pen editing essential to bring any story to life. She also taught me important lessons about effective writing.—Acknowledgments, Inge: A Girl's Journey Through Nazi Europe by Inge Joseph Bleier and David E. Gumpert

Pam's questions and comments helped me to correct inconsistencies, empower characters, develop plot, and break the book into chapters.—Acknowledgments, Eva and Henry, A Cape Cod Marriage, by Irene M. Paine

As an editor and teacher that I’ve worked with since the early 2000s, Pam is protective of my own voice and writing style. She is encouraging in a long-term way, beyond one class or one editing session. . . I’m always glad when I’ve had her look at my work.Mary Ann Bragg, short story writer, novelist, journalist
