“As a first-time author, I had no idea how fortunate I was that Paul Dinas agreed to work with me. Working with him was both a pleasure and a learning experience. He guided me–patiently, gently, like a mentor does–in shaping it, organizing it, and turning it into a coherent, readable, narrative of a complex piece of aviation history. My book would never have been published without his editorial work.”

“Paul Dinas is a true professional in the art of editing. He is fair, honest, and supportive, and guided me through a sea of red lines like a magician. When the smoke cleared my first novel was published worldwide. It doesn’t get any better than that for a writer and an editor.”

Janice Wittenberg, Novelist
“Paul Dinas was my editor for my first book, The Essential Guide to Grief and Grieving. Paul helped me develop the concept of the book, honing in on what was necessary and what was not. I couldn’t have asked for a better editor, and I owe a debt of gratitude to him for a book I am very proud of — one that I’m receiving rave reviews for. I’d highly recommend Paul Dinas for any editing job.”
Debra Holland, Ph.D, USA Today Bestselling Author

Paul always demonstrated a strong work ethic, attention to the details of the writing and publishing process, and strong insight relative to the expectations of the reading audience. I recommend him highly.”
