"In my years working with Salma and watching her career grow I’ve been most impressed by two things. The first is her versatility. She brings a real thoughtfulness to whatever she tackles, whatever the medium. Whether the topic is public policy, travel, parenting or reality-TV trends, she brings her brain to the game. She always has a point of view, and she writes with so much verve that I always find myself open to whatever she has to say. On top of that, Salma is remarkably lovely to work with. She is generous about sharing what she knows and responsive to critiques from others. I recommend her highly."
--Pamela Kaufman, Executive Editor, Everyday Health, and Former Executive Editor, Food & Wine

"I was lucky enough to work with Salma at iVillage and at Today. Shortly after joining the iVillage lifestyle team as food editor, Salma made an immediate impact on our traffic. Her deep knowledge of all things food combined with her knack for coming up with story ideas that resonated with our audience helped her exceed traffic goals for the food channel. Salma is the editor you want on your team. She writes clicky headlines, clever ledes and delivers copy that sparkles. She’s also a pleasure to work with and is both a leader and team player with an enthusiasm that is infectious. I hope I get the opportunity to work with her again."
--Dina El Nabli, Editorial Director, New Jersey Family and Former Editorial Director, iVillage

"As a hotelier overseeing luxury hotels, I have traveled the world, lived in different countries and cultural environments, and met the movers and shakers of this world. I wanted to share my exciting and unique experiences, so I started to write my biography over one year ago, only to realize that writing is one thing, but writing a story which captivates a future reader page after page is something else altogether.
It became evident that if I wanted my life story to become a book of literary value, I could not continue without professional help. It just so happened that I was reading “Jasmine and Fire,” a memoir by Salma Abdelnour, which caught my interest from the first page. Her style of writing was what I imagined for my own biography, letter-perfect and refreshing, making a reader lose track of time as he reads chapter after chapter.
A first e-mail contact with Salma quickly turned into a personal, pleasant working relationship, without which my biography would have never been what it is.
Salma has not only transformed my simple essays and notes into a stylish, exciting story, but her international background and her experience writing for major publications such as the New York Times, Food & Wine, Forbes and other media has helped her understand the nuances of my occupation and life. This has contributed to an extremely successful cooperation. “Kicking Butt and Kissing Sawdust,” the working title of my biography, describes the highs and lows of my career running the world’s grandest hotels, and it would have never been what it is today without Salma Abdelnour. She was instrumental in turning a simple life story into a successful, professionally respectable biography.
I would recommend Salma Abdelnour without hesitation to anyone searching for professional help in writing a story, and without any hesitation I can guarantee a wonderful, mutually respectful and successful business collaboration.
Thank you very much, Salma, for what you did for me."
