My best selling book wouldn’t have been possible without the wisdom of Smiling Eyes Press. I am forever appreciative. Without Smiling Eyes Press organization skills, depth of research, respect for deadlines, and many meetings, this book would not have happened. They understood every part of my book, and connected to it.

I started writing a book six years ago. I never considered myself much of a writer, and I wasn’t making a lot of progress and I was thinking I would never finish it until I met Richard of Smiling Eyes Press. Richard offered to take a look and he would let me know. Richard and I met on a weekly basis and gradually the book took shape. He organized it, gave it life, and guided me through the publishing process. Four months later, I had a book. I am very pleased with the end result. I recommend Richard to anybody who has something to say. Like me, you may think you cannot write a book, with Richard guiding you, you can.

Richard knows when it’s time to joke and laugh, but more importantly, he knows when it’s time to roll up your sleeves and get your hands dirty. I worked closely with Richard. Richard is diligent in his work, and I’ve seen him rewrite the lead to a story a dozen times until it felt just right. If you ask for his opinion, prepare for the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. He’s never steered me in the wrong direction when I sought his advice, and I’ve picked his brain more times than I can remember. If you show him respect, you’ll get respect in return. He’s always willing to share his knowledge, and he’s equally as ready to learn. It’s a testament to his character. We’ve co-bylined dozens of stories, one of which turned into a Quebec Community Newspaper Association Award winner. I’ve interviewed and been interviewed by Richard. His work speaks for itself, and his reputation as a hard-working publisher continues to grow
