Here's what the authors, agents, publishers, and book publicists I've worked with have to say about me.

Danielle Goodman is simply one of the best editors in the business today. Her professionalism and work ethic, her positive, get-it-done attitude, and her “this is not just an assignment to me or a job,” sense of mission from beginning to end: This is the magic sauce of Danielle Goodman. It was evident in my last bestselling book The Memo and it became a transformational asset to this new book, Up From Nothing.
Danielle listened to and understood, translated, and ultimately was able to even channel my unique voice when I was not available for an immediate change or edit needed for the manuscript. She was always right on point with what I meant—and what an author “truly means” is everything to an author. In many ways, Danielle spiritually co-wrote the underlying energy of this book with me, and for that I will be eternally grateful.

Working with Danielle was a game changer for my writing process. When I was introduced to Danielle, I had just received constructive feedback on a substantial draft of the first book I had solely written. I was swimming in fear and uncertainty about how to incorporate the editors’ notes within a very short time frame.
Danielle struck the incredible balance of compassionate active listener and shepherd armed with critical questions and inspiring prompts. Her thought partnership helped me to clearly articulate my ideas and shape what finally became The Creativity Leap: Unleash Curiosity, Improvisation and Intuition at Work. I continue to recommend Danielle to any writer, at any stage- and have hired her again to work on my next writing project! You’re in excellent hands with Danielle.
