Clients on this work.
As a first-time author, I was skeptical about the feedback I was getting from other publishers. I found Liltera on Google. I read her background and researched her page, and wanted to give her a try. I reached out to her; the next day, she responded. I asked her certain questions, then she scheduled a telephone conference with me to reassure any doubts and to answer my questions. I am now a published author and she is still available to me and answers any questions I have. Therefore, I have chosen her to publish my second book. I highly recommend Liltera. She is understanding, knowledgeable, and forthcoming. She is the best!

Liltera Williams is a very professional and efficient editor and writing consultant. Although I’m not a novice writer, Liltera was able to guide me through the e-Book publishing process. Her easy-going style, coupled with her availability is inviting for anyone who would like to author a book. I recommend Liltera’s services for any writer at any level.
Dr. Katherin Garland
Editing & eBook Publishing
In the Summer of 2012, I reached out to Liltera for assistance with editing and self-publishing. She advised me that she had never published but was aware of the process. I'll admit as a first-timer myself, I was skeptical. However, not only did she put me on a writing schedule, she edited and published my first non-fiction piece, P.S. Never Give Up Hope. Throughout the entire process, she encouraged me to finish even when I myself wanted to extend the deadline or quit. I moved on to exceed my selling expectations within months and I am confident it was because of her help. Since then, she has published multiple books and even helped others Live Their Dream by publishing their titles. She comes highly recommended and will also be publishing my next title!
