“As Ron’s editor at WTOP radio in Washington, D.C., I saw the relentless pace of all-news radio chew up and spit out lots of broadcast writers. Ron not only kept pace, but he had a remarkable ability to turn piles of often complex research into clear, concise soundbites. He uses those same gifts today in his books.”

Adjunct Professor, Philip Merrill College of Journalism

“Ron Brackin is a veteran of Assist News Service. His professionalism is equaled only by his versatility, contributing everything from insightful commentary on tough issues to delightful personal columns and book reviews.”

“Ron Brackin is a thoughtful man and knows how to write words that move and motivate others toward a more noble expression of life.”

“For more than a decade, Ron has given us an expressive, professional voice, writing everything from training manuals and country profiles to project reports and rebranding documents. He has a knack for taking the complex and writing it in a much simpler, easier-to-understand way. His expertise, heart for the lost and unique understanding of our mission is the reason Ron is always our first call.”

“Ron Brackin is a writer of amazing faculties. In my experience, he is magnificent as an editor, helping authors to better themselves and enhance their communicating skill. What is great is that he helps them better accomplish what is on their heart. That in itself is a remarkable gifting, but there are two additional dimensions. Ron is a prolific author himself writing on a whole range of subjects and even able to embrace a variety of styles. The most delightful discovery about him though, is his scholarship and range of expertise about mission and ministry. It is that heart and understanding that helps him connect with readers at a very deep level.”

“When Ron sent me the first draft of Son of Hamas, I was amazed. It was as if he had been there beside me—sitting at my family’s table, through all the craziness of two intifadas, in the Israeli prisons and throughout my transformation. Few Westerners understand the complexities of the Palestinian/Israeli conflict as Ron does.”

Mosab Hassan Yousef

Author of Son of Hamas, SaltRiver/Tyndale 2010

“When I wanted to write a book telling the story of Palestinian Christians and started looking for a ghostwriter, no one I talked to even knew they existed. Then, I was referred to Ron Brackin. He knew what I was talking about and was on a plane with me two weeks later, heading for the Palestinian territories—despite a raging intifada, a massive Israeli incursion and a tense hostage standoff. As we worked on the book, I discovered Ron to be knowledgeable, perceptive and compassionate, as well as a little crazy.”

“We contracted with Ron to research, create and write an ad campaign with the hope of jump starting sales in one of our subdivisions. Ron not only researched the current market, but also the property’s history, uncovering its historical significance. His research resulted in an ad which catapulted sales in the subdivision. We had never before seen how the history of an area included in the marketing of a community could so impact our buyer. Ron’s writing turned the corner for us.”

“Ron excels at taking an idea or a mess of facts & details and crafting them into compelling stories, letters, books—any written communication. He helped WorldServe create a devotional guide that the ministry is still using today. And behind his excellent writing abilities is a solid base of experience and know-how in fundraising and marketing communication that results in a tool that has multiple beneficial uses for an organization. Keep his contact information handy, he is definitely a go-to resource!”

Daniel LaBry

“I highly recommed Ron Brackin for any and all of your writing demands. He was able to take the information gathered from the field, whether obtained via video, audio or written testimony, and translate that information into a compassionate and logical account which made sense to our readers. His writing would propel the reader into the scene as if they were there when the events first happened. Ron was always punctual and would have copy back to us immediately. He worked well with all the employees and was available at any time for tele-conferencing, even when that meant staying up/waking up at inconvenient hours to conference with field staff in Africa.”

Ed Lyons

“I’ve had the privilege of working with Ron over the years, and I appreciate his passion for the causes he writes about. Ron is also a very creative writer – he is always ready with a new angle or approach. His writing is energetic and compelling, and he always meets his deadlines. I recommend him.”

James Read

“I was a very young, very green writer when I first had the privilege of working with Ron, and I was always amazed at the speed with which he could finish off a project with such professional skill. Twenty years on I run my own business and now try to emulate Ron’s efficiency. Getting the job done quickly and beautifully is a trick experienced writers know and that their clients want and need. And with his varied talents, I’d recommend Ron to many people for a variety of projects”

John McWhinney

“Ron is one of the best, most dedicated writers I have ever had the pleasure to work with. He is a master of his craft, and has continued to hone his skills throughout his colorful career. His range of writing skills ranges from direct response copy in a variety of media, through publication articles and even best-selling books. I recommend Ron highly for any writing/editing/reporting position, whether domestically or as an international reporter.”

Larry Jerden

“In the agency world there is a short list of go-to guys that are in a class above the rest. Ron Brackin is at the top of that list. Ron’s talents are as varied as his vast experience is deep. My experience with Ron has always been one of admiration and awe. He can set a land speed record like no other when it comes to quick turn deadlines and the first draft is usually the final draft. Thoughtful, insightful and a true wizard with words Ron not only gives the client what they want, but exactly what they need. Not everyone has the honor of being a New York Times best selling author on their resume, thing is, that’s just one of the many accomplishments Ron has achieved in his career. Work with him and you’ll see, he’ll go to the top of your short list too.”

Frank Laudo

“Ron has the often missing ability to write copy that captures the imagination of the reader and still drives them toward action. As a consultant working on behalf of clients, I really appreciated not only his commitment to the client but also his commitment to the craft of writing effective direct response copy.”
