"As a novelist and a freelance editor myself, I understand the value of a great proofreader, but the lesson really hit home when I indie published my third novel. That book had been through eight critique partners and a copyeditor before I sent it to Judy. I couldn’t believe the errors she found. They weren’t just typos, either. Judy found continuity errors and timeline issues that ten people before her had missed. I hope I never have to publish without Judy’s proofreading expertise."
-Robin Patchen, author and freelance editor

"Judy's got a great eye for picking out errors that both I and my editor have somehow missed. I always get her to do a final read of the book before it's published. She's fast, professional and a pleasure to work with.
I would not hesitate to recommend her services."

"I came upon Judy as a stroke of good luck. I must second the opinions of others—Judy is always invaluable to me even after beta readers and editors. She always finds something the rest of us missed, be it grammar or continuity, and I have come to rely on her stamp of approval before I dare send one of my manuscripts out to the world! Judy puts her all into every job, she always finds time for me, and she gives me her honest opinion. That kind of service is hard to beat."

"Judy is thorough, fast, and adaptable. A great editor also needs to be a chameleon, adapting to each author and book, and Judy does."
Patricia McLinn
USA Today bestselling author
“I looked for a long time for someone I could trust to be the last set of eyes on my self-published novels. Having come from more than 20 books for traditional publishers, I knew I needed someone who would see the mistakes I might miss so that the final product was as close to perfect as possible. Judy is that person. I wouldn’t put out a story without her.”

"Judy used an eagle eye on my manuscript, catching many errors that previous readers had not found. She found several capitalization errors as well as some punctuation errors. More importantly, she even found some logic mistakes, places where things didn’t make sense or were contradictory. I highly recommend her services as proofreader."

“Serendipity often works out better than the most intense effort and it definitely worked when I found Judy. I’ve used a lot of editors and still errors slipped through into my published books. Judy not only found typos, grammar, and errors that my other editors had missed, but she also found logic and continuity flaws, e.g. when a character’s name mysteriously changed. She has become an invaluable part of my team because she is fast, competent, and reliable. I can’t imagine publishing a book without her assistance. You won’t find an easier person to work with, that’s for sure. I highly recommend her.”

"Since 2011 Judy, from Judicious Revisions, LLC, has been my last line of defense in the realm of edits before any of my books are released into the wilds of the Amazon, or at least onto the worldwide storefront. I trust her that much. She always does a good, thorough job of finding mechanical, punctuation, and sometimes even logical or continuity errors that were missed with the previous two rounds of edits. She has a lightning fast turn around time and a gentle way of pointing out errors without being demeaning. I wouldn't sacrifice her services for anything!"

"Judy is fast, efficient, affordable, and she's fast (I used 'fast' twice on purpose, Judy!). She's my last reader before my books are published, and she has a great eye for catching errors that have slipped by the notice of other smart professional women. I recommend her to all my author friends."

"Judy DeVries never disappoints me with her editing skills. In fact, she amazes me! My books go through countless editing passes between three editors before I send them to Judy, and she always finds the few things that have somehow been missed. Not only does Judy read for grammar, but she reads for story coherency as well. I highly recommend her as an proofreader!"
Julie Johnstone

"Judy is very easy to work with. She takes time to listen to what I'm concerned about in my story and pays attention to that specific issue. For example, I wasn't sure how to address a duke in a Regency I wrote, she looked up the proper way to address him."

“Judy will be proofreading all my books from now on. She found mistakes that an editor, proofreader, and several beta readers didn't find. And it's not just typos and grammatical errors, but missing details, like “How did she drive into town the next day if she left her car at the bar to leave with that guy?" You're in good hands with Judy."

“You can never have your novel proof read too many times! I have a network of beta readers who proof my books before I send them to Judy DeVries, and yet I'm always surprised by the mistakes she manages to find hidden in my manuscripts! I find Judy a joy to work with, always helpful and polite. Her services are invaluable to me!”
