Helga Gruendler-Schierloh – Author of “Burying Leo”

“I am extremely grateful to Jeyran for her skillful and sensitive evaluation of my debut novel, “Burying Leo.” Compared to some of my previously published shorter – and often lighter – pieces, including a variety of memoirs and human interest stories, “Burying Leo” served as a full-length literary vehicle to explore the painful consequences of sexual assault.

Not only was I impressed with Jeyran’s ability to summarize the essence of my novel’s story-line in a precise and eloquent manner. She seemed also very aware of some of the underlying messages embedded in those 300-plus pages holding a kaleidoscope of tragic, amusing, annoying, entertaining, and also possibly (to some readers) offensive paragraphs.

Thank you, Jeyran, for a job well done and for giving me the positive feedback that helps keep me going as a writer.”
