"I wanted to write and let you know just how much I appreciate the work that you did in designing my book, Out of Downing Brook. When I first started on the project, I had no idea what I was doing. My only previous experience writing anything was in my high school English class many years ago. I took your advice and just started typing away with two fingers and later on with three and even four fingers, having absolutely no idea how it would all come together but what I ended up with was a wonderful surprise; a well designed good looking book.
"I wrote the book as a gift to about two hundred relatives, many whom I have never met but now they are writing me or calling and they say that they are enjoying the book. It has been a wonderful experience and we're making new friends. I've had so much fun, I'm thinking of another book I may just write if I can get you to put it together...thanks again."

"Thank you for teaching this writing. I had a lot of fun. My eyes were awakened to the observations of life. I also got insight on people that I was unaware of knowing by using pen to paper. I realized I enjoy writing, now to practice and the matter of time."

"I am very pleased with the chapbook you've created for me, Mary. You took my compilation of poems and turned it into a masterful work of art. I have been writing poems for years, but didn't know how to put them in booklet form, since I couldn't afford the expensive publishing companies. When I first contacted you online, you responded right away, answering all my questions on how to submit my poems to be developed into a chapbook.
"I appreciate the way you kept me informed of the progress of my chapbook, and how sensitive you were to my requests for changes at times. You were very professional, yet personal enough to let me know you cared and wanted me to be satisfied. The cover design is beautiful and the formatting of the pages, impressive.
"My poems have been published in The Oasis Journal - 2004, The Unity Center of Christianity, Wash.DC Newsletter, and The Movement of Spiritual Inner Awareness, Wash. DC Newsletter, but this is my first chapbook and I wanted it to be just right. Mary, you have made a dream come true for me. Thank you. I recommend you highly to anyone who want to have their own chapbook published."

"Mary, you did an excellent job of collaborating on my chapbook. I asked you to do a different type of booklet than you had done before and you took to the task like a duck to water. Your cover design for Joy At Work was very attractive and much more than I expected. I liked the way you were attentive to my concerns about the project and how carefully you made any changes I requested. I will not hestitate to use Wild Pines Publishing Services when I do my next chapbook. Thank you very much. It has been a pleasure to work with you."

"Mary...I got the books today. Thanks for everything. You did a wonderful job. I am very pleased with the formatting and the general layout of the book. When I was looking for someone to help me publish my first chapbook, I, of course, checked out all the big services (Xlibris et al) and soon became uneasy with the crassness and impersonal flavor of their hype. Chapbooks are about poetry after all and I wanted this book to be born in a more poetic atmosphere. You provided such a service. It was evident at once that you would be very attentive to my wishes and that I was not about to submit my poems to the 'maws of mercilous machines.' Again thank you so very much."
