“Edith G. Tolchin was instrumental in the preparation of the revised edition of my novel,Shavlan. Her assistance in editing and finding certain inconsistencies in the novel was extremely helpful. She brings to the table much knowledge and understanding based on her many accomplishments and life experiences, which she has used as fodder in her most recent, published novel,Fanny on Fire. It has been a pleasure knowing Edie Tolchin.”
