“Barbara is a fantastic writer on popular culture, social issues, and more, and she’s also tops at the smooth management of editors and difficult writers. It’s a real pleasure working with her.” J.S
“I’ve been impressed by both her abilities as a writer and an editor as she not only is able to write well, but able to communicate to other writers how they can best improve their writing without impinging upon their personal style. She’s also shown herself capable of handling the even greater responsibility of being managing editor at Blogcritics.org where she is not only overseeing the site’s content, but acts as combination crossing guard, kindergarten teacher and parent to some 2500 volunteer writers and editors to ensure the site is published on a daily basis.” R.M.
“Barbara Barnett amazes me with her writing ability. Her book “Chasing Zebras” not only reflects her cogent and clear style but also her insight and intelligence. Based on her regular commentary on the “House” TV show, I sense that she is also a fast writer who gets it right the first rather than requiring much rewrite or self-editing. Her work just flows. I would recommend her for any task that demands effective communications, both written and spoken.” Jim O’Connor, author
“As an observer of all things cultural and pop cultural, Barbara writes wide-ranging and incisive commentary in Blogcritics covering modern trends and technology, running a prolific gamut that includes social issues, music, and television. (The number of comments prompted by her series on the program “House” are off the charts.) Astute analysis and to-the-point opinion are interwoven throughout Barbara’s accessible and expressive articles.” G.H.
“Barbara is an excellent writer who puts a special touch to every subject she covers. She also gets down to the nitty gritty without a lot of excess verbiage. And she’s professional in getting her work in on time.”
“Barbara is an excellent writer, as evidenced by her book Chasing Zebras: The Unofficial Guide to House, M.D. As a reviewer and critic writing for Suite101.com, I had the pleasure to interview Barbara about the book. And she was just as keen, insightful and detail-oriented as the book itself. Barbara is a gifted, dedicated, savvy observer of pop culture who both sees the big picture and can break it down into intriguing and understandable pieces that reveal how the whole was constructed. She clearly loves what she does — and it shows in her writing. Any editor would be lucky to have her.” Barry Grey, Suite 101
“Barbara is brilliant, easy to work with, ambitious, dedicated, and clever. She is a very unusual person because she is able to do a lot of things at once and do them well. She catches on very fast and she will do any job assigned to her.” –L.O., Communications Professional
“I’ve enjoyed working with Barbara. She’s dedicated, stays positive under pressure, and can always bring constructive ideas to the table. Equally open to suggestions and able to give direction when needed, she performs well both as the backbone of the operation and/or its captain. When she sets pen to paper, you can be sure the final product will be professionally crafted and engaging to the reader.” M.B., Sci-Tech Blogger
“Polished and sophisticated, Barbara’s prose is a reader’s delight.” A.J., Blogger
“Barbara is an experienced, prolific and dedicated writer. Her conversational tone and personal insight add depth and warmth to the multitude of articles she writes passionately about on a wide range of subject material. Always encouraging, Barbara is readily and patiently available to assist me with my numerous questions and issues about posting material on-line. I highly recommend her for writing and editing projects.” –Debbie Friend, Writer, Blogger
“Barbara is a classic example of an ambitious writer who seized the tools afforded by the blogging revolution and elevated herself to a level of highest professionalism and popularity. I would eagerly work with her again on any project.” E.O. Publisher
