“I had an idea for a book and made a start on it approximately three years ago. I only got as far as chapter one before I realised I was out of my depth. Despite having great ideas and intentions, I decided to revisit the project this year to see if I could continue the process. However, I found myself stuck again, unable to get past chapter two, and realised I would need some help. I reached out to ode to stories and explained the concept of my book. Jordan immediately connected with the idea and guided me through the entire process. She encouraged me to simply write—without worrying about structure or perfection—and to just get all my ideas down on paper. I followed her advice and handed over my jumbled words. To my pleasant surprise, Jordan was able to take everything I’d written and transform it into an amazing, well-structured book. I would highly recommend Jordan. She is extremely patient, talented, and supportive throughout the process. Thank you my darling! You are the best, love you, Vicki x.”
