She is an eagle-eyed sub-editor, and a firm production editor with an enviable lightness of touch, and a wonderful understanding of the world of food and drink. Highly recommend, 10 out 10, no notes“

“We recently engaged Pru to copyedit a cookery book written by an author with English as a second language. Her edit demonstrated rapport with the author, common sense with the recipes, and correspondence with our style guide. She communicated well and returned the job on time. A delight to work with”

“I had the absolute pleasure of working with Pru Engel as the editor on my Hardie Grant cookbook, Philoxenia – A Seat at My Table over a number of
months. I found Pru to be dedicated, hard working, flexible and supportive throughout the entire process. She has a strong attention to detail,
took great care in all her work, and worked in a collaborative and empowering manner with me as the author while still meeting the deadlines required
by the publisher. Pru cared about the values and vision for the book and ensured her editing maintained its integrity. I highly recommend her.”
