Brian Tarcy's Clients Think...
|
|
Brian is a valuable resource when it comes to writing that needs to make
a difference! I brought him in at the last minute on a very high profile
speech writing project for an "A list" professional athlete. He captured
the essence of what I wanted and the client needed and he turned it
around in days. I now know I can count on his quality writing, fast turn
around, ease to work with, and confidentiality. I highly recommend him
and will use him again on speeches and other writing assignments.
Kathleen Hessert, Founder and President, Sports Media Challenge
Deciding to write my life story is one of the best things I’ve ever done. I thoroughly enjoyed how you helped me travel down Memory Lane. Your interview style was relaxed and fun and I am extremely proud of the end product. And the best part, of course, is that I now know that memories that would have surely been lost have now been preserved for future generations. You helped me give a great gift – the gift of my story to my children and grandchildren.

Brian Tarcy has been a great friend to the Morse Pond School Talented Eager
and Motivated Program. His willingness to volunteer his time coupled with
his wonderful ability to teach the subtleties of writing scripts and
journalism to kids, has made him valuable asset to our school. Many of the
successes we have had would not have been possible with out Brian.
Brian Switzer, Morse Pond School TEAM Program
I had a great idea for a book but had no idea how to go about it. Brian helped me transform my idea into a published novel. He was very professional and has the skills to help any first time author.
Robert Zitella, Author of KARMA

on track, your questions were insightful and your writing helped
clarify my thoughts. Over and again you provided a great framework
for my words and the collaborative editing was fun and insightful.

something that takes that much work, but you made the experience
not only bearable but downright fun and rewarding. I appreciate
your taking a rookie like me and taking me through the crazy business
of writing books. -Howard Cannon, Restaurant consultant, Author - THE COMPLETE IDIOT'S GUIDE TO STARTING YOUR OWN RESTAURANT |

| Brian Tarcy is an
outstanding writer who completes a job on time and with a minimum
of fanfare … When writing a book there are several deadlines to
be met, taking into consideration publishing dates, etc. With
Brian, this was never a concern. I was thoroughly satisfied with
the quality of his work, with his knowledge of the game of baseball
and his professionalism. -Tom Glavine, baseball pitcher, Author - BASEBALL FOR EVERYBODY |

but his personable character. Brian fostered a comfortable working
atmosphere, making him a pleasure to work with. -Cam Neely, Hockey Hall of Fame, Author - HOCKEY FOR EVERYBODY |

| One of the many qualities
that impressed me so much with Brian Tarcy was his ability to
capture my words and thought process and transform them so efficiently
into print. Another critical point which I consider to be very
important was Brian’s ability to work under deadline … He is bright,
adaptive and very creative in his writing skills. Anyone who may
have the opportunity to work with him would consider the experience
to be a major plus in the presentation of the work. -Joe Theismann, Super Bowl Quarterback, football analyst, Author - THE COMPLETE IDIOT'S GUIDE TO FOOTBALL |

| Although he was fairly
new to the sport of women’s hockey he was very interested in learning
about the sport … Brian was the one who brought up the right questions
in order to get us talking about the proper topics for the book
as well. He was also very easy to talk to, easy to get along with
and willing to arrange meetings that were convenient for everyone.

| Your interview style
proved to be an efficient way to get ideas out of our heads and
into a rough manuscript. Whenever we tried to become too technical,
you asked the tough questions and made sure we explained things
so that anyone could understand. -Peter Duncan, Business Consultant, Co-author - SIMPLIFIED STRATEGIC PLANNING |

Not only did I get exactly what I wanted with Brian, but his creative and unique writing style added so much more to my story than I imagined.

Brian Tarcy took
my writing, which tended towards bottom-line prose, and taught
me to put in those details that brought people and situations
to life. -Gary Sutton, Business Consultant, Author - TIGHT SHIPS DON'T SINK.... PROFIT SECRETS FROM A NO-NONSENSE CEO |

What The Critics Say ...
|
| About Hap Klopp’s THE ADVENTURE OF LEADERSHIP |
|
“Fun to read and
irreverent.”
-THE BOSTON GLOBE- |
|
| “He hates what he
calls ‘the embalming fluid’ of contemporary corporate culture,
‘the fraud of authority, the power to be a bully by virtue of
title.’ A title, he writes, makes no one a leader. He calls for
vision, creativity, inspired leadership and the faith that anything,
absolutely anything is possible.” -SAN FRANCISCO EXAMINER- |
|
“Reading ‘The Adventure
Of Leadership,’ one gets the sense that Hap Klopp walks the walk
… Klopp is entertaining and readable, and he has something to
say worth hearing.”
-ROCKY MOUNTAIN NEWS- |
|
| About Tom Glavine’s BASEBALL FOR EVERYBODY |

complete it should be a handbook for those of us who cover games
for a living.” -USA TODAY- |

‘One Man’s View from the Top of the Iceberg.’ ”

of any team in football.”
-BOSTON GLOBE- |
