I had an excellent experience working with Cyra on my book project. She translated the manuscript from English into German with great accuracy, maintaining the tone and intent perfectly throughout. Her turnaround time was impressively fast, and her communication was clear and professional at every stage. The pricing was fair for the high quality of work delivered. I’m very happy with the final result and would highly recommend her services to anyone looking for reliable and skilled translation.

Working with Daniel was a pleasure. His design was beautiful and captured exactly what I was hoping for. Whenever I asked for an edit to be made, he was responsive and happy to do it. When I had questions and needed clarification because this was my first book, he was there with both reassurance and confidence. He went above and beyond at the end of the project when I was very anxious about getting the book to print and made himself super available for last minute adjustments. I worked with b...

Amanda was simply a pleasure to work with. I had a very tight—arguably unreasonable—timeline, and she didn’t hesitate to take on the challenge. She delivered thoughtful, insightful feedback that significantly improved the clarity, tone, and flow of my children’s storybook. What stood out most was her attention to detail and her genuine care for the project. She not only corrected grammar and phrasing, but also offered suggestions that strengthened the storytelling and made the narrative more ...

Vicky was insightful, active, and professional, delivering a very thorough plan that I could use to promote my book. She also answered any questions that I had, both throughout the process and after I received my marketing plan. I would absolutely recommend her!

Jessica did an absolutely phenomenal job with the soft copyediting phase of my manuscript, Going Beyond. As an independent author, I wanted to ensure my sentence flow and grammar were highly polished while keeping my authentic human voice and personal stories completely intact. Jessica achieved this balance perfectly. She has a meticulous eye for detail, structural consistency, and tone. She was incredibly professional, highly organized, and always encouraging throughout our collaboration. He...

Working with Dan has been an absolute wonder. He has been very responsive, patient, and created a brilliant design for my website. I couldn't have asked for better service.

I enjoyed my collaboration with Kourtney so much! She was responsive, kind, and willing to work with me and my ever-changing design ideas. Her art speaks for itself and I'm so grateful that my novel gets to live alongside it. If you get the chance to work with Kourtney, you won't regret it!

Emily was awesome to work with. My manuscript came with very strict, non-negotiable guidelines—proofreading only, no editing—and she followed them perfectly. She delivered exactly what was asked for, ahead of schedule, with great attention to detail. She also flagged a few areas where clarity could be improved and asked for approval before making any changes. I plan to work with her again on my next manuscript without question.

All I can say is wow! Mark went above and beyond and I am incredibly happy with my cover. He was a consummate professional from the outset. His response to my request for bids was another level compared to his competitors who also responded. He understood my book and what I was trying to convey. The cover design did an amazing job communicating that. I used to be a graphic designer and so I was pretty nitpicky about minor changes. Mark handled my requests with grace and speed. We had a seamle...

My uncle once said, "You never waste money when you hire an expert." Not only is Sarah an expert designer but she's also a true collaborator—flexible, egoless, and enthusiastic. She put her all into designing a cover that I'm really pleased with, she kept us on schedule, and she equipped me with the files I'll need to print and market my book.

I worked with Jenny on my second dark romance book and was extremely impressed by her professionalism and attention to detail. She polished the manuscript and made it ready for publication, focusing on copy and line edits across two rounds, both of which were extremely helpful. I also appreciated her clear, transparent communication, flexibility, and quick turnaround, which made the whole process smooth and stress-free. I would gladly work with Jenny again and would definitely recommend her ...

I absolutely loved working with Andrew on my project. His feedback, review, and suggestions were all dead on the things that I had not even noticed. He was concise. He had explained everything thoroughly giving me the bigger picture of why his suggestions and or feedback would improve a section or chapter in my novel. I highly recommend Andrew and his professionalism and hope to be able to use him again in my next project.

Claire is a writer's dream editor and proofreader. Her thorough attention to detail and responsiveness are reassuring for new authors like myself who value an expert's guidance and support. She also clearly read every word for meaning and clarity in addition to providing thoughtful comments and questions. I would work with her again without hesitation!

Sarah was wonderful to work with throughout the publishing process of my memoir. She was patient, knowledgeable, responsive, and supportive every step of the way. As a first-time independent author using IngramSpark, I greatly appreciated her guidance, attention to detail, and calm professionalism during what could have been a very overwhelming process. She helped bring my book to life and made me feel confident moving forward with publication. I truly value her dedication and highly recomme...

Exceptional talent, impeccable professionalism, and a truly wonderful person to work with. Louise took my book from manuscript to masterpiece with remarkable attention to detail and artistic excellence. She consistently went above and beyond, delivering outstanding work on time while making the entire process smooth and enjoyable. Her creativity, dedication, and kindness made a lasting impression on me. Without hesitation, I can say that Louise exceeded every expectation. She is a rare gem ...
