With more than twelve years of freelance writing, editing and proofreading behind me, I’m proud to say that I have many happy clients. I work hard to keep them excited, motivated and satisfied, so I’m not even going to blush when I share the nice things they had to say about me and my work.
Here are a few:
Roslyn Carrington is a brilliant editor, thorough and supportive. She will go the extra mile to help you polish your manuscript and get that finished product.
Nicola Brooks-Williamson, London, UK . Author of Roots From the Cotton Tree.
“I have known Roslyn Carrington for over a decade. She’s assisted our company, Safari Publications, with numerous projects including writing and editing for our regional magazines, Caribbean Belle (fashion and lifestyle) and Belle Weddings.
Roslyn is very professional, genuine and easy to work with. She was an exceptional coach, and held my hand during the process of writing my debut novel, The Yard, which was published by Speaking Tiger Books (2016). I would very highly recommend her services.”
Aliyyah Eniath Hosein, Director, Safari Publications
“Ms. Roslyn Carrington worked with myself (and NIHERST) on our amazing Deep Sea Wonders of the Caribbean. Ms. Carrington is a true professional who listens carefully to the needs of her client to ensure satisfaction. Her enthusiasm and dedication to her projects resulted in an exceptional product in Deep Sea Wonders of the Caribbean”.
Dr. Judith Gobin, Head, Dept. of Life Sciences, UWI, St. Augustine

“I have known Roslyn for many years and I always admired her insistence on quality and excellence. I saw first-hand how fantastic she was at bringing ideas and people together when she worked as the editor of WOW Women’s Magazine for the Sunday Guardian. As the person responsible for overseeing the magazine, I rarely had to question Roslyn’s editorial judgement. She was also unafraid to push the envelope. This was often fun and challenging for readers and writers alike.
I was reminded of Roslyn’s efficiency and effectiveness when I recently engaged her for a quick project and she delivered in her usual professional manner. As I would tell anybody, ‘Roslyn is ah boss!’”
Franka Philip, Journalist and co-founder, Trini Good Media
“I have worked in the book business and publishing for over twenty-five years with many authors and editors in the US and the Caribbean and I have found Ms. Roslyn Carrington to very thorough and a quite capable editor. Having recently worked on our newest publication has confirmed my opinion.”
Ako Mutota, Sene Press
“I’ve worked with Roslyn to develop the scripts for an educational video series and book on the Deep Sea Wonders of the Caribbean, as well as the speeches for the launch of the event. And I can truly attest to her versatility and open-minded approach with her clients. It was a pleasure working with her and I am certainly grateful for her patience and neutrality throughout the process. She goes above and beyond the scope of her work!”
Joanne Leong Poi, Project Officer III (Ag.), NIHERST
“Roslyn is a true professional. She is easy to work with and is able to turn around work within a timely manner. I’m thankful she helped me with my first book and is helping me with my second. Roslyn provides excellent customer service. I would recommend her to everyone. Great work!”
Dr. Nicole Sherrill-Corry, Author, The Importance of Me: Advice from a Friend. Editing and ghost writing client
“Ms. Roslyn Carrington is an exceptional writer. She was indispensable in patiently recording and accurately transcribing my memoirs into readable form. She was responsible for transforming my mundane memories, thoughts and philosophy into an accurate, readable, colorful story.”
Dr. George Laquis, author, Call Me Pud, a memoir. Ghost writing client
“Toute Bagai Publishing has had the pleasure of working with Roslyn Carrington for the last couple of years as the editor/writer for Maco People Trinidad as well as various other projects.
I appreciate her open and easy dialogue, as magazine deadlines can be stressful. She is diligent and always takes the initiative to ensure a job well done while adhering to MACO’s style and overall high standards. Her knowledge and command of the English language is superb and it goes without saying that she is an absolute dream to work with.”
Simone Gillette, Managing Editor/Director, TBP
“A quite thoughtful, master editor who, with the application of her store of mechanisms and more so her dispassionate eye, alters not, but enhances one’s own purpose and literary style.”
Bukka Rennie, writer, editing client
“I became acquainted with Roslyn Carrington through her wonderful novel, A Thirst for Rain, which is still one of my favorites. While I was working on my own book, I knew enough to see that it was not even close to Roslyn’s compelling storytelling in so many ways. She read my work and gave me so many excellent critiques, suggestions and edits that I was tempted to have her just ghost write it for me. I knew she would do a great job, but she encouraged me to stick with it, coached me along (all online) and the rest is history.”
