Reviews for The Revision Process "Throwing out all my other writing guides!" Susan P., Haddam, CT "A must have for anyone who is serious about writing and putting out the best work possible." Lucy S., Tewksbury, MA "Perfect for guiding both new and experienced writers through the onerous work of revising." Rebecca N., Eastham, MA "If you are going to buy one guide to help you write better, this is the one!" Paula B., Bellingham, WA "Gave me specific tools to use in writing and editing in a short and easy to read format." Julia D., Wilmington, MA "(The Revision Process) never leaves my desk. It's become my Bible." Elaine T., Stoneham, MA Working with Robin Stratton "Criticism was given honestly but in a very thoughtful and non-confrontational manner. I felt very much like my work was respected but at the same time, I always felt like my writing was being looked at from a fresh, honest viewpoint and always, always with an approach to making it better for the reader." Laurie M., Bridgewater, MA "While many people enjoy fine writing, few have the ability to communicate using correct grammar and precision of thought. Fewer still have the ability to edit and suggest corrections in the work of others. Robin is one of the exceptions." Skip D., Scituate, MA "Her diligence, discipline, and dedication to writing is extraordinary." Ruth L., Dennis, MA "The book in my hand is much better in every way than it would have been had I not worked with her." Kurt H., Italy "A unique combination of passion and insight along with fine editorial skills... able to effectively challenge and encourage at the same time." Dennis C., Newton, MA Praise for Boston Literary Magazine Boston Literary Magazine successfully maintains a near perfect balance. Their standards are quite high, but not unreachable. The editors are very selective without being elitist. A prompt, insightful, well reasoned rejection from Editor-in-Chief Robin Stratton is of more value to me than publication elsewhere. D. Matthews An editor who takes the time to respond quickly and personally to your work is a rare occurrence indeed, standard fare for Robin Stratton, editor of Boston Literary Magazine. It’s a pleasure to have found such a welcoming home for my work. Charles C., Rochester, NY "The selection of writing and poetry is wonderful. The editors' ability to recognize quality work is evident. I was drawn in at the first 'click' and I keeping clicking my way back for every issue." Steve M, Florida As an editor, Robin Stratton of The Boston Literary Magazine is a writer's delight because, unlike many editors these days, she responds quickly to submissions. She acknowledges them promptly and provides helpful feedback in her personal responses. As a writer, I am well pleased to have my poetry represented on the pages of her handsome journal. JT CLARK, NY Robin Stratton is a wonderful editor! Her honest feedback has improved my writing and her 'go-go' attitude has made submitting to Boston Literary Magazine a pleasure! D. Martinez, Colorado I think your publication is a great resource for writers and readers to see the power of words through extreme limitations, and I intend to pass the web site on to my students as a teaching tool.
