"I could not have dreamed of a more customer
sensitive and professional group of people anywhere. You ALL have done a
remarkable job of responding to my questions (many, many) and helping me make
difficult decisions along the way. Thanks to you all, my first printing is a
masterpiece of quality. The cover, printing and binding are of excellent
quality. Thank you for helping me make this dream come true. This has been a
very worthy endeavor."

telling
Dear Deborah,
We are extremely pleased with the proof copy of "Beast" that arrived at our
doorstep via Next Day Air within only a day of my approval of the digital
cover proof. The quality of your service continues to astound me. The quality
of your work, (including but not limited to), the editing, formatting, and
cover design, gives even the major publishing houses a run for their money.
Please pass along my heartfelt appreciation to all the members of your team
who have made sure that quality was poured into the production of my book
every step of the way. I can only hope that those who read the book will find
the story contained within its pages worthy of the care that was put into its
production. Thanks for making your talents available to first time authors,
like me. You're the best!
Sincerely and Respectfully,
David N. Donch

Three months ago I retired from Engineering. In my work life (see attached) I
worked with a lot of companies. The experience I had with Llumina over the
past couple of months has been very pleasant. I appreciate all the help
everyone in your Publishing Co. has been during the development of my book,
Night Cafe. To a customer this is very important.
I'd just like to say thanks to everyone.
Sincerely,
Happy Thanks Giving!!
Hi Robyn,
This is
Kathleen, Paula's granddaughter. I wanted to let you know that my Grandmother
passed away on October 9th at the age of 91. She was so thrilled to have this
published before she died! She kept a copy of the book by her bed and would
read it over and over. After a while, she forgot that she had written it, but
she still loved to read it - or have it read to her.
...Thank you.
Kathleen

"Just
a quick e-mail to tell you how happy I have been with Llumina Press. Everybody
that I have worked with has done a terrific job and some of us have even
developed friendships. Robyn and Rocky have been outstanding. Have you had an
opportunity to see the cover yet? Rocky did a terrific job and his enthusiasm
for the project shows. I am very happy with all the service and the
consideration taken while I was recuperating from surgery, that certainly slowed
me down. But we are almost there, ready to publish. I would like to put your
logo and a link on my website, will that be OK? www.stemsoflife.com Thanks
again. Good job everybody."

"Thanks for the links. It is really a great
feeling to see an idea for a book that I had for years to finally reach its
completion by being released to the world as a well designed book with a great
cover! And I have Llumina Press to thank because it was a visit to your website
that inspired me and gave me the motivation, the strength and persistence to
finally materialize this idea into a book. It was a vision of the page that I
just saw with my book on it that gave me all the push I needed to work hard for
three months to complete and realize a lifelong dream. For this, I thank Llumina
and its utmost professional staff with all my heart for inspiring me and helping
me realize my dream. I paid a minimal fee but the result is priceless. Deborah,
please feel free to use this as a client testimonial. This is the minimal I can
do in return for what I received from Llumina Press. Again, thank you all so
much."

Thank you for making dreams come alive in the work you do best. I am pleased to
have Deborah Greenspan as my coach. I also enjoyed the drive it takes to get my
book into public view. Holding the final product in my hand and seeing my name

been a pleasure knowing that everyone plays a great part in the work they do. I
am pleased to have chosen Llumina Press to work with on my manuscript.
My thanks go to Deborah Greenspan, Ron Ferris, Joanna, Robyn, Rocky, Diane, and

“It is an unlikely
event, when an author doesn't cringe at the sight of a change in his/her words.
You have successfully bypassed this fear with your distinguished wit and
unmatched clarity. You take a sentence and turn it into a polished idea. If a
picture is, indeed, worth a thousand words, you would surely make each word
portray a thousand others…”
