Beatrix Potter's Gardening Life

Edited for Timber Press // 2013

"While our work was never face-to-face, I still feel that if we passed in the street I would recognize you somehow. You edited my manuscript with care, consideration, and charm."

Plantiful

Edited for Timber Press // 2013

"I feel very lucky—and grateful—that my manuscript landed on Mollie Firestone's desk. She is so easy to work with that it never felt like work, and she's easy to trust. From day one I understood that Mollie was my partner, just as invested in the success of the book as I am, and who totally had my back. Her eagle eye saved me from untold embarrassments and she turned my hash of sentences and paragraphs into something I'm wicked proud of."
—Kristin Green, author of Plantiful

Phlox

Edited for Timber Press // 2010

"While I never met Mollie face-to-face, the communications I had with her during the editing of my Phlox book conveyed a warm, patient, and encouraging personality that put me at ease. I had never worked on a book before, and from what I heard about editors, I was braced for a prolonged season of conflict! Working with Mollie was a pleasure."
—Jim Locklear, author of Phlox
