MY SERVICES FOR AUTHORS
What Clients Are Saying:
"...I was introduced to Bonnie Synclaire...this summer...I was impressed with her unique ability not only to tell a beautiful story, but make the reader a part of it...I have been working on my own book, CARAVAN OF DREAMS, for over 3 years and until Bonnie became involved in my project, I was procrastinating abound. Her engagement motivated me to work with her and finish my project. I attribute a great part of success of my book to Bonnie..."​
