"I think your touches are miraculous and that you have a tremendous gift and talent. I can still hear my voice in the text so I am happy." - Dr Ruben Richards
"Wordsmiths is one of the best editorial support organisations that we have had the privilege of working with. Their attention to detail, professional care and quick turnaround at affordable rates sets them apart as a unique operation. We have done business with Wordsmiths for many years, and it has always been a pleasure." – Helene Perold
"Kathleen, thank you for your support during the process of proofreading and editing. We gave you a difficult task, you did a superb job, and you went the extra mile throughout. I look forward to working with you again in the near future." – Tineke Wulffers
“Owen Hendry has proved a gifted, knowledgeable and sensitive editor, for whose skill and application I am profoundly grateful.” – Edward Griffiths
“Oh you really are meticulous! And a great defender of an author’s omissions and commissions. Good for us all.” – Dr Mothobi Mutloatse
“Editing is a sensitive and artistic process in itself, and for this I must thank Kathleen Bartels of Wordsmiths. She displayed keen insight and was at times ruthless, but always highly professional.” – Tom Cottrell
“Dear Owen, May I thank you very sincerely for the magnificent work that you did in your calm and professional way to bring this project to its conclusion. I am immensely grateful to you for your efforts.” - Tony Leon MP
"Wordsmiths has, over the past few years, assisted in the proofreading and editing of the SA Yearbook. It is a comprehensive source of reference, which requires a meticulous eye for detail and consistency. Wordsmiths’ staff members display just that and impress with their professionalism. They add value to every publication they work on." – Delien Burger
"The things that stand out when working with Wordsmiths is that they always retain a pleasant and friendly manner, even under stress, keep to deadlines and make up time lost by the client wherever they can. Wordsmiths is a professional outfit with expertise in plain language editing, and provides an excellent project-management service overseeing translations in the official languages. Their fees are reasonable for the high level of service they provide. All in all, a tip-top number 1 team." – Nicky Clarke, MD
"Many thanks to Owen Hendry for his fine copy editing.” – Jonny Steinberg
“I gratefully acknowledge the skill with which Owen Hendry edited the work.” – Gerald L’Ange
