Book Bible Review
"Claire handles my series bible, and she’s been a lifesaver. She spends hours reading my books, then painstakingly logs important details in a master document. She’s saved me several times from making errors while writing subsequent books in the series. She’s incredibly organized with how she’s arranged the document, using color coding for each book. Hiring her has been an excellent investment, especially since I’m writing a long series."

-Tamara Lush, 2018 RWA RITA® finalist and author of Paradise Beach Series

 

Book Bible Review

"Claire is a life-saver. The bible she did for my Josie Quinn series was comprehensive, detailed, easy to use and has become an invaluable tool. I now keep it open as I'm writing new books because that's how much I use it. I also send her each new book so she can add to it. She captured all the details I desperately needed to keep in order and organized them beautifully. The time I now save by using her book bible is significant. She works very quickly and keeps me apprised of the process to make sure she is hitting on all the things I need her to track."

-Lisa Regan, USA Today & Wall Street Journal bestselling author of the Detective Josie Quinn series


Author Assistant Review

"To take my writing career to the next level, I knew I had to outsource admin and marketing duties to free up my time to write more. Plus, I was writing so many books I needed help creating processes to manage my business as it grew to maximize effort and return on investment. 

In a Google search, I happened along Claire Milto of BB Virtual Assistant for Authors. I was looking for someone with a broad skill set so I could work with one person who was able to do many things and her background seemed to fit the bill.

Within our first week working together, she had me so organized it was unbelievable. What would take me an hour (if not more) to put together a tracking spreadsheet would take her a fraction of the time, and the final product was much better. After a few weeks, I turned more and more over to her so I could focus on my writing. 

Claire has become more than a VA; she's a partner committed to my success and willing to help me reach my goals."

-Laina Turner, author of The Presley Thurman cozy mystery series

 

Book Bible Review

"Claire did an amazing job on my series bible. I was desperate and she instantly jumped in and handled it for me. She was fast, thorough and efficient – not to mention very pleasant to work with. Anyone needing author assistance should consider her services, as she’s something very rare – self motivated and committed to excellence."

-Elizabeth SaFleur, author of The Elite Doms of Washington series

Author Assistant Review

"Claire is super-organised and so gets quite an amazing amount of work done in a short time. She is very much a self-starter - she listens carefully to what the client wants and then uses her own initiative to push a task forward to completion. We are delighted we chose Claire as our virtual assistant."
-Brian Lynch, Inkubator Books Publishing

Book Bible/Editing Review

"Claire is a meticulous worker who provides book bibles that allow me to not only know who a character is but where I first met him/her. She’s super organized. She also has done edits for inconsistencies and errors of which I have many in early drafts. I highly recommend her services!"
-Carly Phillips, NY Times Bestselling Author

Author Assessment Review

"Claire knows her stuff. I gained a lot of knowledge from the one-hour author assessment call with Claire to go over my mystery series. Her experience and knowledge spans all the areas an author needs to know/master if they want to succeed at indie publishing. She is passionate about what she does and it comes across in her work. I can't wait for her to have an opening on her VA schedule so I can snag it!"
-Katrina Kyle, author of the Hale Mary Mysteries

Book Bible Review

"Claire has built a magnificent bible for my paranormal romance series. My books contain several different types of creatures and a large cast of characters. She has summarized my work into a wonderfully organized and manageable format, allowing me to keep detailed information at my fingertips in an easy to navigate, color-coded document. Her level of attention to detail is incredible and rare! I can’t recommend Claire highly enough!"

-Sloane Calder, author of the Natura Elementals series

Author Assistant Review
"Claire has been such an asset to my writing career, and it's only been a few weeks. Not only has she helped me with administrative tasks, but her knowledge of the industry has helped me make smarter decisions. She's gotten me organized (I have a spreadsheet now!!!), she's helped me manage my readers' groups and made beautiful promotional graphics for me. I can't believe I waited eight years to hire a virtual assistant. I suppose the Universe knew what it was doing when it had me wait to hire Claire.
I'll be promoting a new book in 2022, and I am excited to have Claire by my side, helping me soar to new heights in my writing career."
-Piper Punches, Amazon bestselling author of The Waiting Room, the Missing Girl series, and The Murder Lawyer

Book Bible Review

Finding Claire Milto was a lucky day for me!  She had a small opening in her schedule and was able to do a Book Bible for my very first historical novel.  The book is packed with lots of characters, spans multiple locations--the Arkansas Trail of Tears, Indian Territory, and Dallas (TX). No worries! Claire created an organized reference piece which will sit beside me and quickly become dogeared as I refer to it again and again. I can’t imagine writing the next book in the series without it.  Not only is it an impressive compilation of details, Claire delivered it quickly and for a fair price.  She’s my hero!  Thank you, Claire.
-Laurie Moore-Moore, author of Gone to Dallas, The Storekeeper 1856-1861

Book Bible Review
"Claire has done a fantastic job of creating bibles for two of my series. Her attention to detail is second to none and has saved me from making any number of mistakes. The document she provides is easy to navigate, clear to read, and completely invaluable as I continue writing in an increasingly complex world of characters. She's also caught several errors from my earlier books. Finally, she has proven extremely flexible in carving out time to devote to this work. I couldn't do this without her and I can't recommend her services enough!"

-Kate Meader, USA Today bestselling author

Author Assistant Review

"Claire has literally changed the way I do business. I have more time to focus on the important part-writing-and a whole lot less stress. She's handled all of my social media, helped me with formatting, and so much more. I can't recommend her services enough!"
-Rosie A. Point, USA Today best selling cozy mystery author
