“As a writer, what you need first and foremost from an editor is a combination of the following elements: honesty, knowledge, directness, integrity. You need a partner, a cheerleader, a collaborator, and I was lucky enough to find an editor who had all these qualities when I started working with Marco Palmieri.”

—James Swallow, New York Times bestselling author

“I sought Marco out for his expert editorial advice last year. It was definitely money well spent. As an editor, he is efficient, insightful, and honest. He’s generous with his time and comments and very available to his clients. He’s also one of the nicest guys I’ve ever met. Marco’s experience, talent and professionalism make Otherworld Editorial a first-rate choice for your next writing project.”
