"The Boys and Girls Club are beside themselves with excitement over the article you prepared. They said that they have received numerous phone calls about the wonderful article. Diane Long called me yesterday to tell me how impressed she was with the entire procedure. She said she was most impressed that you forwarded a copy of the complete story to her...to review it. I responded that in the past, of all the publicity I've been able to muster up for different non-profit events, that you are the only one that repeatedly does this. In a nutshell, both Diane and Tim found you to be very professional, thoughtful and a very good writer."
Ginny Yount, Boys and Girls' Club Big Gig Committee
"Your Party Parade article is wonderful. Thank you so much.

"Joanne met our very tight deadlines; she quickly grasped the objectives of the assignment; she thoroughly researched the topics needing additional information; she was extremely flexible as priorities changed; and she delivered a terrific first draft. Her second draft was usually the final version, an accomplishment few writers can claim."
Sue Bates, former Director of Museum Sales at Monticello

"As I was preparing materials to transfer to the '09 Public Relations Chairwoman for Historic Garden Week, I realized with an unpleasant start that I had failed to express my appreciation for your fine article in Real Estate Weekly last spring—you are so thorough and precise! From all of the Garden Week volunteers, many thanks to you and your editors for your fine press."
Stuart Dopp, Historic Garden Week
