Working with Olga was an excellent experience. She went above and beyond, showing remarkable patience to ensure the cover was absolutely perfect - and the result exceeded my expectations. Throughout the process, she was friendly, communicative, and receptive to every request for revision. I wholeheartedly recommend working with her.

I've seen some of Octavio's work before and they look amazing but he seriously blew me away with what he did for my project. You can tell he's a trust master of his craft and highly talented. He was also super easy to work with. I'd recommend him to anyone whose looking for an amazing illustrator.

Vincent was brilliant. He was meticulous and thorough. He eye for detail was extraordinary. He was also responsive, helpful, and willing to go above and beyond. He completed everything early. My book was much better for having Vincent involved. I cannot imagine his not being involved on my next book. Really a great experience. Thanks!

If you are reading this review because, like me a few months ago, you are dipping your toes into getting professional help with your book, then all I can say is DO IT! I read through all of Mark’s reviews, and I knew he was the type of editor I wanted and needed. From the moment I made contact, I felt at ease. He is enthusiastic and genuine, but he doesn’t sugar-coat either. The thing I found with Mark is that he really understands the journey. I do not know the writing world, and I was hone...

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 would like to say that Janet went above and beyond. She not only got the the project done on time but was ahead of time. She was 100 percent professional and communicated thoroughly every step of the way. Also I want to add that she didn't make me feel like a project but a person and kept the communication light and fresh. I will be working with her in the future hopefully.

Working with Joe has been an outstanding experience. His deep understanding of the full writing and editing process, combined with his responsiveness and thoughtful problem‑solving, made the entire journey smooth and enjoyable. He’s easy to collaborate with and consistently added value at every step. I highly recommend connecting with him to discuss your book project. Thank you, Joe, for all your hard work — it truly made a difference. Martin

Tom has been wonderful to work with. I will definitely hire him in the future and would recommend him again and again. He is a great communicator, kind, highly skilled.

Marta was a pleasure to work with throughout the process. She was always responsive and quickly responded to and implemented my feedback as we worked through each step of the process, while also applying her expertise and offering guidance on the design direction. If you're considering working with Marta, don't hesitate to submit a request!

Working with Mark Karis on Desire and Wonder was an extraordinary experience, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. This was not a simple project. Desire and Wonder is a very large work—nearly 1,500 pages—which ultimately had to be presented as a three-volume series. From the beginning, Mark approached both the practical complexity of the project and the character of the work itself with remarkable intelligence, patience, care, and professionalism. What impressed me most was that Mark n...

Nira is an excellent editor with experience in the industry that comes through when she edits. I highly recommend!!

I expected a professional assessment of my memoir, Border Haze: A Cold War Illusion, and thoughtful recommendations for improving it. Mikayla gave me much more than that. Her work included detailed comments throughout the manuscript and a comprehensive editorial letter addressing the book as a whole. What impressed me most was how completely the two worked together. The letter identified themes, character arcs, structural patterns, and connections running throughout the manuscript. Her indiv...

I just spoke with Camille, and the experience was incredibly helpful. She provided thoughtful, insightful feedback and raised important points about my story that I hadn’t previously considered. Her perspective gave me a clearer understanding of areas that can be strengthened, and I’m genuinely excited to revisit my manuscript and make the necessary revisions. I’m also looking forward to working with Camille on refining my query once the edits are complete.

This is my second time working with Eleanor and it won't be my last! Her attention to detail is fantastic, and she went the extra mile in confirming facts I'd referenced. This was the second book in a series and had some elements of magic, and I loved that she was on the lookout for consistency in the magic system and suggested clarifying certain details for the reader. I also really appreciate that when she suggests reworking a sentence, she frames it as a suggestion—not a must—recognizin...

I couldn’t have asked for a better copyeditor. Saranne brought clarity, precision, and heart to every page. Her attention to detail was incredible — not just fixing errors, but strengthening the rhythm, emotion, and flow of the story. She understood exactly what I was trying to say, often before I even said it, and helped me bring out the best version of my work. Professional, thoughtful, and an absolute joy to collaborate with. If you’re looking for someone who elevates your writing while r...
