Working with Celia has been an absolute pleasure. She went above and beyond, and the insights she shared with me have been invaluable. I wholeheartedly recommend working with her. She’s an absolute star, and I will definitely be back with additional projects. Thanks so much, Celia--this has been a total blast and I’m super grateful for all your stellar work!

I worked with Holly on my memoir, a book about a tough childhood and building a business from the ground up, and she was fantastic. Detail-oriented to a level I didn't know existed. She caught everything at the line level, but she also saw the bigger picture: the conceptual storytelling, the arc, where the narrative needed to breathe and where it needed to move. I ended up rewriting large sections of the manuscript based on her recommendations. Every one of those rewrites made the final produ...

Grace is amazing. I feel like anything else I follow up with will lessen this fact. She is quick. She is dependable. She's encouraging but also critical (in a fair way) and is easy to get a hold of. I will definitely be knocking on her door when my next project is ready.

Brent was extraordinarily helpful getting my novel polished. I really felt like his experience was perfect for my dual-timeline horror story, and he provided insightful structural feedback on character development and helped eliminate inconsistencies. Overall, it was an excellent experience and I would work with him again.

Veronica did an outstanding job bringing the vision for Social Media Melted My Brain (and I Still Pressed Post) to life. From the very beginning, she understood the tone and message behind the book and translated that vision into a bold, eye-catching design that perfectly captures its humor and commentary. Her creativity, attention to detail, and ability to take abstract ideas and turn them into visually engaging artwork made the entire process feel seamless and collaborative. What impressed...

Erin delivered beyond what I expected out of our engagement on so many levels. Firstly, she instantly recognized what I was trying to achieve with a very complex story structure. Then, she offered me a call to really understand my goals with my project, and later guided me on the kind of engagement needed to achieve my goals. When she delivered the outcome of our engagement, it was clear that she'd really immersed herself into the work, arming herself by (re)reading the works of masters whose...

Working with Eva has been outstanding. Her feedback is precise, insightful, and always grounded in a deeply invested and intelligent understanding of the manuscript. She brings clarity to structure, tone, and theme, and her guidance has consistently elevated my work. Professional, reliable, and genuinely inspiring—an excellent editor of very high caliber, and craft. I highly recommend.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Outstanding Editor – Professional, Timely, and Insightful I had the pleasure of working with George H on my book Courage, Tears, and The Glory, and I couldn’t be more satisfied. He delivered everything right on schedule with the utmost professionalism. His editing was thoughtful, detailed, and respectful of the story's voice and message. George also offered helpful structural suggestions, refined the narrative flow, and guided me through some crucial decisions about chapter forma...

Siân copyedited my manuscript using CMOS and provided additional line/developmental notes as necessary. She was incredibly helpful, kind, and professional throughout the process. Her excitement about my initial draft made me excited to work with her! Siân's suggestions and comments pointed out things in my manuscript to strengthen the story, characters, and the impact of key chapters. She asked about my specific concerns before starting, and in her feedback, she provided comments directly re...

When we found ourselves in a pickle and needed a job turned around fast and well, Grainne saved the day! Her meticulous work—even while working with a tight timeline—was truly impressive. Great communication, a keen eye, and the utmost professionalism are why we look forward to working with Grainne again and again on future projects.

Val is incredible. Her feedback was thoughtful and clearly written, and it helped me pull the threads of my story together without leaving anything unfinished or confusing for the reader. She communicates quickly, and I will absolutely be working with her again in the future. I truly cannot express how helpful her feedback was, especially because she delivers it in a way that never makes you feel dumb for not realizing something sooner.

Dena was a pleasure to work with—she was open to my feedback and suggestions, and she took the time to understand my needs. She provided insightful comments and demonstrated a strong understanding of the craft. It's clear she knows what she’s doing when it comes to proofreading, and I really appreciated her efforts throughout the process.

I had a great experience working with Joe Levit as the editor of Forensic Basics. The quality of the manuscript was greatly enhanced by his editorial insight, attention to detail, and commitment to clarity. He was able to identify areas in which my original voice and intent needed to be refined without deviating from the original vision. His feedback was both constructive and encouraging, helping me improve not only the technical accuracy of the forensic content, but also its accessibility f...

Working with Elisabeth was an absolute joy. Her communication was excellent and proactive from start to finish—I always felt supported and never left guessing about next steps. As a first-time author, I especially valued her thoughtful suggestions and helpful guidance, which made the entire process smooth and confidence-building. The bespoke design elements Elisabeth created were gorgeous—unique, personal, and perfectly reflective of both my taste and the overall aesthetic I envisioned for t...

Entrusting my book to someone else felt like a deeply personal step, but Sam immediately put me at ease. He explained the process clearly and made everything feel manageable from the start. He was incredibly generous with his knowledge, offering guidance across different areas of the publishing and editing world, and consistently went above and beyond what I expected. His feedback was thorough and insightful. He even picked up on the smallest details I hadn't considered! The collaboration f...
