Client Testimonials

Book Coaching & Line Editing Clients

“Anika took time to listen and understand what I wanted to express in writing and succeeded in crafting a product that is well organized and coherent, and makes sense to the reader… I enjoyed working with her and give her all the credit. She is not a ghostwriter. She is the real thing, a true writer.”
– Peter Hinderberger, MD

“Anika’s work and communication is clear, helpful, professional, and constructive. She’s able to work deeply into the details of a text while still holding the overall flow and development of an entire manuscript. She is easy to work with and clearly in command of the co-author and editing process.”
– Adam Blanning, MD; Denver Center for Anthroposophic Therapies

“Anika, thank you for… bringing your gift of weaving together the voices of seven distinct personalities into a cohesive and beautiful narrative.  So blessed to have your passion for this project… one that could not have happened without you.”
– Nasha Winters, ND, FABNO; Author, International Speaker, and Integrative Oncologist

“Anika has helped our team… write an approachable book with a common voice on a complex medical subject matter. She has superb organizational and interpersonal skills and has kept us on task in order to meet every deadline. I have seen how she has masterfully edited our contributions into prose that far better fits with the desired readership of this book. She is a true master at her work, and the enthusiasm she brought to our project saw us through from idea to completion.”
– Mark Hancock, MD; Humanizing Medicine Integrative Care

“This book would not be nearly as impactful without the work of Anika Hanisch who helped me at every stage of the process including outline, organization, content development, editing, referencing, and so much more.  Anika single-handedly shaped and transformed this book into so much more then I could have ever imagined.”
– Dr. Steven Saltzman; Author Dancing with Darwin (Forthcoming, 2019) and Founder Vitality7 Institute

“It is refreshing to work with a professional like Anika who can give honest, constructive critique without sugar-coating it.  All feedback from her, good or bad, has a purpose and she backs it up with detailed explanations. That is why she is my primary editor and writing coach for all my writing projects.”

“I learned how to begin and how to proceed—now the fun really begins!”
– K. Jensen; Workshop Participant; Bozeman, MT

“Anika delivers constructive criticism that is packed with knowledge yet devoid of the discomfort that can sometimes come from having your work reviewed. This gentle approach to revision really helped me to open up and create a valuable working relationship with her over the years. Working with her has been a huge boost to my creativity!”
– Nicole C; Freelance Writer; Seattle, WA

“As a first-time writing workshop attendee, this was very helpful and inspiring.   I liked having writing examples to look at, as well as discussing editing examples in my own work—very helpful.”
– Workshop Participant; Bozeman, MT

“I came here not totally committed (to writing a memoir). You stirred my pot, got me thinking, re-inspired me!”
– Workshop Participant; Bozeman, MT

“Discussing writing processes, how to get started and flesh out ideas and themes—all helpful to get started writing again. It was great to be around other writers, sharing ideas, different voices, and approaches to writing.”
– CC, Workshop Participant; Gallatin Valley, MT

“Nothing gets past her. I have never worked with a copy-editor who is as thorough and efficient as Anika.”
– N. Cohn; Freelance Writer & Editing Client; Seattle, WA

“Working with Anika the past several years has been an outstanding experience. Not only is she an excellent writer and a very detailed copy editor, she also has exceptional organizational skills which made my job so much easier. Additionally, her friendly demeanor was such pleasure to work with even during times of high pressure and stressful deadlines.”
– Abigail Hernandez; Account Executive, Natural Health Industry

“When I work with Anika, I know exactly what I’m going to get. First and foremost, she has excellent writing skills. The most impressive attribute Anika brings to the table is what the clients don’t see. She is incredibly resourceful in her research; her knowledge of laws and regulations in our industry is unmatched; and her ability to create readable and understandable content from highly scientific source information is truly a gift.”
– Leslie Atkinson; Account Executive, Natural Health Industry

“I have known Anika for the last 10 years. Not only is she a great writer, but a wonderful human being… an indispensable team player, whose continuous contributions brought focus and clarity to every endeavor. Her level of honesty and practical professionalism has always been a refreshing presence.  As a writer, her creative writing skills in clarifying the complicated have been essential to the success in all our collaborative projects. I would highly recommend Anika to anyone seeking great writing, insightful solutions and a sincere dedication to excellence.”
