Carolee was a freelancer when I edited a group of meeting industry magazines. She was a dream to work with because she was always willing to take on an assignment and do the research to get it right, and she never missed a deadline! Her writing was informative and enjoyable, no matter the subject.
Nancy DePalma, Writer and Editor
I met Carolee through the Maryland Writers Association several years ago, and since then have asked for her help editing several documents for my local chapter as well as my own novel-length fiction. Carolee's edits and recommendations in both cases were detailed and insightful, based in experience and defensible based on established reference material. She is thorough and detail oriented, and I recommend her editing skills for both commercial and fiction enterprises.

Having known Carolee for years, I recommend her as a writer without hesitation. Carolee's attention to detail and active listening skills mean you get a writer who really knows how to deliver on what you need. Her kind demeanor makes all interactions super pleasant. She can make dull subjects come alive and add a new twist to subjects that have been done to death. If you need a writer for a magazine or newsletter, talk to Carolee!

Carolee has written articles for Pen in Hand, the quarterly membership newsletter of the Maryland Writers' Association, and its associated newsblog, Keyboard in Hand, for which I am the editor. The quality of Carolee's submissions and her ability to provide work on spec and ahead of deadline makes her stand apart. She is adaptable to changes in requirements, and able to pitch quality ideas when asked. She is one of the most reliable go-to writers in the Pen in Hand stable.

Carolee’s editorial insight gives me the confidence I need to revise my work before sharing it with my agent. Her feedback is always thoughtful, timely, and thorough, and her kindness and professionalism never cease to amaze me. From story structure to the slightest nuances of character development, Carolee knows how to shape a book to its full potential. Her bright personality and ability to give even the toughest feedback with tons of encouragement is a great bonus. Carolee is the sort of editor most writers only dream of finding!

Carolee Noury has been a wealth of knowledge and support since the moment we met on a writing site four years ago. Her eye for detail and her professionalism go hand-in-hand with her genuinely lovely personality. We've worked together on many writing projects over the years, and Carolee's feedback has always been timely and helpful. Her love of writing and dedication are inspiring. Carolee is a keeper.

Since I met Carolee, I have been always appreciative of her personality, work ethic, and professionalism. She has those great qualities everyone is looking for. She is hardworking, cooperative, encouraging, and a great team player. As secretary of Maryland Writers’ Association-Montgomery County Chapter, Carolee wrote clear, thorough meeting minutes. Whenever I missed a meeting, I was confident I still had all the information I needed. I have also edited her articles posted on PRO Leadership’s quarterly magazine. They were well articulated and written elegantly.
I highly recommend Carolee for your freelance needs.
