I genuinely could not be happier with the work. From the very beginning, Nicolae completely understood the vision I had for my book and managed to bring it to life even better than I had imagined. Every illustration is incredibly detailed, atmospheric, and full of personality, and you can tell how much care and thought went into every piece. Beyond the quality of the artwork itself, he was an absolute pleasure to work with - kind, patient, professional, communicative, and genuinely invested ...

Much can be said about Rachel and her professionalism, collaborations, and insights. But two simple words best describe her: she cares. Cares about her craft, her writers and authors, and the people around her. That's it. Plain and simple. She simply cares. You can feel it in everything she does and says, from her tweaks and edits, to her conversational mentorship, encouragements, and kindnesses. Yes, she simply and genuinely just cares. Period end.

Working with Sakshi was an incredible experience from start to finish. She is exceptionally talented, professional, and patient. Throughout the project, I made numerous requests and scope adjustments, and she handled every change with grace, flexibility, and a positive attitude. Her creativity brought my vision to life in ways I couldn’t have imagined, and she was consistently responsive, thoughtful, and detail-oriented. I truly felt supported through the entire process. I highly recommend ...

Abi is terrific! She understood what I was asking for from the start, and really delivered in a professional, responsive, and warm way. Her editorial assessment was clear, thoughtful and thorough, and our Zoom follow-up conversation gave me further direction and motivation. Before working with Abi, I felt like I was groping around in the dark, and now I feel confident about my next steps. I’m truly grateful for her insight and guidance.

I loved working with Nicolae. In fact, we already have plans to do three more projects together in the coming year. I'm even considering getting a poster of the cover made to hang above my desk. It's exactly what I was looking for! Can't wait until I have whole series done.

Working with Maria was an outstanding experience from beginning to end. Her editorial feedback was thoughtful, detailed, and highly actionable. She challenged me to strengthen my manuscript while always respecting my voice and the heart behind the project. Her recommendations helped me deepen key sections, improve organization, and create a more meaningful experience for readers. What impressed me most was her ability to balance professionalism with encouragement. She identified areas for i...

Olivier formatted and designed the covers for the print, digital, and audio editions of my book, a long, structurally complex nonfiction work, with real care and precision. Clean interior across every format, framework diagrams rendered exactly right, and print-ready files throughout. The cover work stood out, exactly as I envisioned it, beautifully balanced and giving the book a finished, professional feel. Responsive to every revision and a pleasure to work with. I recommend Olivier without...

Jonas designed the cover and interior for my first book, and I can't recommend him highly enough. As a first-time author, I had no idea what I was doing half the time — and Jonas was endlessly patient with me through the whole process. He explained things clearly, never made me feel behind, and genuinely guided me rather than just executing tasks. Partway through, I realized I needed to make a real structural change to the manuscript — not a small tweak. Jonas didn't blink. He turned it arou...

This is my first novel and Patricia was amazing. Love her work and she is such a pleasure to work with! We completed our initial contract. However, we are collaborating on creating a back cover for this book. The work has been brought to life and I'm so excited. Highly reccommend!

After an excellent coaching session with Kim, I then had her edit my first book. I learned a great deal from Kim, and she did an amazing job with my book. Kim is both friendly and professional, and I would recommend her.

Working with Erin has been an absolute joy. She is a truly great professional — thoughtful, insightful, and incredibly thorough. Her editorial feedback on The Brayhill Chronicles was clear, constructive, and full of care. Erin managed to highlight exactly what needed refining while keeping my confidence in the story intact. She gave me more than one real lightbulb moment — those “of course!” insights that instantly make everything click. What I appreciated most was her ability to point out th...

Steve delivered clear, insightful, and actionable feedback on my manuscript. He identified what I needed: a high level evaluation of the story’s strengths and weaknesses, including pacing, structure, and character development. I also appreciated that he took on the project earlier than scheduled and delivered his notes ahead of time. The experience was smooth and genuinely valuable.

As a first-time author, handing my manuscript over to someone else was a little intimidating. Within the first few pages of Bryn's comments, I knew I had chosen the right editor. She has a wonderful ability to point out areas that can be strengthened while also celebrating what is already working. Her feedback was thoughtful, encouraging, and incredibly insightful. She never made me feel like I needed to rewrite my story or change my voice. Instead, she helped me see where I could dig a litt...

I had the pleasure of working with Anna on my new book, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. She provided invaluable feedback that significantly improved my manuscript. Anna was professional, responsive, and genuinely supportive throughout the process. Her keen attention to detail and constructive criticism made the editing journey enjoyable. Thanks to her expertise, my book is now polished and ready for publication. I highly recommend Anna to anyone seeking a talented editor!

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.
