This is my first childrens book, and David was amazing to work with from start to finish, his experience really was so valuable to me and made the whole project so smooth and effortless. He really understood my vision and delivered the most beautiful and alive illustrations for my book. He has a great ability to create characters and give so much expression and personality to them. I plan on doing a series of these and will be for sure using him again. I highly recommend him!

Sophie was an absolute joy to work with. She was very adept at seeing where my story could be clearer and what was working and what wasn't. I really enjoyed refining my writing by using Sophie's suggestions. She was able to see some traps I had fallen into through using basic language and where the storyline and plot could make more sense. I would definitely use Sophie again, she is kind, professional and thorough.

Sarah is the platonic ideal of an editor. As a writer, it can be difficult to navigate feedback while trying to stay true to your ~artistic vision~. The beauty of Sarah's editing work is that it is so in-depth you can just feel she is giving her all to trying to understand what the book is trying to do and being completely honest (in the kindest way) about what it needs to get there. You can also feel a big, beating heart at the center of her feedback: her love for books and good storytelling...

Working with Robert was an intensive and ultimately rewarding experience. His proofreading pass was meticulous and detail-oriented, and he did not hesitate to challenge areas that could be clearer, tighter, or more precise. Going through his edits was more demanding than I initially expected, but the results speak for themselves. Even though the manuscript was already in strong shape, Robert found meaningful opportunities to refine it further. The book is now significantly stronger, cleaner,...

First, I want to say what a delight it was to meet Ragav. He was extremely professional and gave the impression he loved his work. He produced an honest, insightful critic which was followed by an in depth discussion of the manuscript. I would highly recommend him as an editor without reservation.

Working with John has been an outstanding experience. He brings a rare combination of expertise, professionalism, and genuine enthusiasm to the process. His insights strengthened my manuscript, and his communication made every step smooth and enjoyable. I would gladly work with him again and highly recommend his services.

As a writer, our stories are precious to us. Reaching out to someone to bring that to life can be difficult for the artist. We have expectations, visions already in place. Rachel not only met my vision, but she exceeded it. These are not just words. She is extremely talented and a joy to work with. I would not only recommend her to everyone and anyone, but also come back again and again.

Working with Svitlana was an outstanding experience from start to finish. She is exceptionally talented, professional, and a pleasure to collaborate with. From our first conversation, she took the time to understand not just what I wanted the cover to look like, but the story and emotion behind the book. She patiently worked through multiple concepts and revisions, always listening carefully to my feedback while contributing creative ideas that elevated the final design. Her communication wa...

Svitlana is a 10/10, no wait, a 15/10. The cover she designed for my book exceeds anything I imagined. Right from the start she “got” my book and zeroed in on the right idea. The whole experience from beginning to end was collaborative. Working with her was effortless. Her communication was timely, efficient, and kind. Svitlana is a genuinely gifted book cover designer. I would write another book just for the joy of working with her again.

Jaime was extremely helpful, very professional and got the work done in the required time. I loved working with her, and it was really great experience to having my first editor ever look at something I wrote. She was very prompt, very nice and I seemed like we clicked from the start which was nice, it was like talking with a friend! She also has helped fine tune my manuscript and point out things I did not notice before which has helped my book become even better!

Steph has been incredible to work with. She has so much knowledge about the romance world, everything from plotting, pacing, and scene creation, she can do it all. Not only is her technical ability great, but her infectious personality is a delight to work with, she is extremely responsive and is able to untangle the mess of my brain into a publishable book. I would highly recommend her!

I’m so glad I chose Jennifer to edit my book. She is incredibly detail-oriented and responsible. She has a way of catching those hidden mistakes between the lines that I had completely missed. You can really tell she loves what she does because she puts so much heart and energy into the work. She was always responsive and kept in touch throughout the whole project. I love how she’s both encouraging and a great critic—she strikes a perfect balance between highlighting strengths and addressing...

Sofie is a truly exceptional artist. She has created my book cover (KDP and IS) and formatted the manuscript of my debut novel to a very high standard. Luckily for me she's an expert at guiding novices through the whole process, and she handled all my daft questions with professionalism, whilst also being friendly and approachable. Nothing was too much trouble and I can't thank her enough. Regarding her talent - wow! She's a bundle of creative energy who has so many ideas, all of which ar...

I am so grateful that I was able to find Philip Bashe to review my manuscript. After reviewing his previous body of work - he was the only person I wanted to provide a copy/line edit for my book. He provided a thorough and exhaustive edit not only on time - but actually two weeks ahead of time to accommodate my own schedule - allowing me to finish my work during a natural break in my own life. More importantly than simply completing the work early, however, he poured an incredible level of...

Working with Florin was an incredible experience. He was patient throughout the entire process, took the time to explore so many drafts, and delivered each one remarkably quickly. The final result exceeded anything I had imagined. You can tell he genuinely loves what he does. It shows in every detail of his work.
