Eve no longer produces this health letter, which she published and edited for almost two decades. This subscription-based health publication was distributed across Canada.
Eve produces a newsletter similar to the UC Berkeley Wellness Letter – but Eve’s newsletter is better! ~ Mark Kozlowski, B.Sc., B.Ed (P.E.), C.F.A., owner of Life Consultants, a fitness first aid and CPR training service, Delta, B.C.
Thank you for your consistent contribution every issue. Yours is one submission that I rarely have
any edits to make . . . it’s a pleasure to work with writers who are that meticulous about their work.
So thank you for that.
~ Barbara Risto, Publisher, INSPIRED 55+ Lifestyle Magazine.
We're running your 'Refined Carbohydrates are Addictive' piece. Honestly, Eve, people have been explaining this forever, but I've never seen it more clearly explained – and concisely!
~ Jeani Read, The Province Newspaper, Vancouver.
It is so great not to have to do excessive editing.
All I did was work with Jim (in production) on images.
Thank you for your great work.
~ Janis Foster, Editor, Sounder Profiles Newsmagazine.
Thanks for the story and I wanted to mention I really appreciate that you include your sources at the end – few freelancers ever think to do that!
~ Carolyn Cooke, Editor, Now Newspaper
Have I told you lately you’re a dream columnist to work with? You are!
~ Bobbie Jo Reid, Managing Editor, INSPIRED 55+ Lifestyle Magazine.
