“I am grateful to Stephanie Gunning for her help and support in my writing of Legends and Prophecies of the Quero Apache. This project was begun as a sharing of hopes, dreams, and history, and it would have been a very different book if it had been published the way I originally wrote it.

It became more than I could have ever prayed for—and for that, no amount of gratitude will ever be enough.”

It was wonderful collaborating with her to help get my message across to so many breast cancer survivors.

She made the process quite wonderful for me.”

“I can’t say enough about my friend and editor, Stephanie Gunning. Where do I begin? She has been my editor during the writing of two books. I couldn’t have written them without her expertise, wisdom, and vision. During the writing of my first book, But I Love Him, Stephanie was solely responsible for turning me from a good writer to an author. She was as enthusiastic about the topic as I was and not only shared her views about the ways in which we could make the book even better, but because of her former editing experience at a large publishing house, she also shared what ‘worked.’ This knowledge was invaluable and the result was a manuscript that needed little editing from my senior editor at HarperCollins.

“Throughout the writing of my second book, Destructive Relationships, Stephanie was just as helpful. Since we knew each other so well at the time, the process was very quick and so much fun that I hated to see it end! When my senior editor at Jodere Group read the manuscript, he said that he had never seen such a well put-together book. I credit Stephanie for that comment.

“Not only would I refer any author to Stephanie, I plan to use her expertise again myself. My pet name for her is ‘The Chief,’ and to me, she truly is.”

—Dr. Jill Murray, author of But I Love Him and Destructive Relationships

“Stephanie Gunning is not only an exemplary writer and collaborator, she is also a person of grace and integrity. Stephanie’s collaboration on both my books was invaluable.

—Shawne Mitchell, coauthor of Exploring Feng Shui and Creating Home Sanctuaries with Feng Shui

“Stephanie Gunning is a remarkable talent. She has the integrity to help you speak your Voice without imposing hers upon it.

—Arthur Samuel Joseph, author of Vocal Power

“Stephanie Gunning is extraordinary! She once said to me that her purpose is to help others accomplish their purpose. She’s right!

“Stephanie Gunning was a tremendous help for me when I was writing my book and self-publishing it. She came along at a time when I truly needed her. I was passionate about getting my book out, but lacked the education or knowledge of the publishing industry. She helped me from start to finish. As a matter of fact, once the book was out, she continued to send me suggestions about marketing it. I will always be grateful for her expertise, guidance, and passion.”

She is dedicated, professional, and has a keen mind.”

—John Basil, Producing Artistic Director, American Globe Theatre

“Stephanie’s editorial skill, her warmth and good humor, and her integrity were all great assets when the Sedona Training Associates published the five-book series Happiness Is Free. I loved her work and I loved working with her. She helped me to weave my freshly crafted Introduction and end-of-chapter activities with transcripts of the late Lester Levenson’s seminars, and also to keep the project on schedule. She pays meticulous attention to detail and yet adopts a flexible approach to the publishing process. So, in brief, her participation was valuable and also a pleasure.”
