I had a very positive experience working with Cathy. Her feedback was thoughtful, careful, and genuinely improved the clarity and structure of my manuscript. She was especially strong at identifying repetition and helping me tighten the work without losing my voice or the emotional tone of the book. Communication was clear and respectful throughout the process, and her notes showed real engagement with the material rather than surface-level edits. I always felt that the manuscript was being h...

Working with Abbey was a joy. She gave me thoughtful and spot on comments on a global level, as well as pointing out places in in the manuscript where little tweaks could go a long way. Her sense of story is very strong, and my novel will be 1000 times better thanks to her invaluable feedback. Thank you, Abbey, you glorious editor!

I hired Jonathan to proofread my manuscript, and the results were more than I could have hoped for. The manuscript had already been reviewed many times, but he still caught things I had missed. He also made a few thoughtful suggestions within the manuscript that were right on target and genuinely improved the work. I would absolutely want to work with him again.

If you are an author looking for a Spanish translator, look no further than Olga. I hired her to translate The Humility You Want and the World Needs, and the experience was exceptional from beginning to end. As an author, you want a translator who understands that the words on the page are only part of the work. Olga captured the voice, tone, and heart of the message and delivered it beautifully in Spanish. Her communication was timely and professional throughout the entire process, which ma...

Working with Lucy was truly wonderful. One of my biggest goals was to make the prose feel smooth, natural, and emotionally strong, especially since English isn’t my first language. She elevated the manuscript beyond what I had hoped for. Her explanations were always clear and spot-on, and her industry experience shines through in every note she gives. Lucy has an incredible eye for detail and continuity, catching subtle inconsistencies in the storyline that I would never have seen after so m...

Raul was extremely easy to work with. Very quick to respond to any question or concern that I had. His concepts for my cover were well thought out and absolutely beautiful. It was difficult to pick one from the five he presented. I can't recommend him highly enough.

Tom has helped me immensely with writing my fantasy novel. Were it not for him, I'd have taken much more time to get where I am today in the process, and with a lot more difficulty. He's a great guy and very professional, couldn't recommend him enough.

I cannot recommend Mikayla highly enough. Her editorial assessment was exceptionally thorough, insightful, and thoughtful. Her feedback was both encouraging and incredibly actionable. She provided a clear, strategic roadmap for strengthening my manuscript while honoring my voice and the story I want to tell. She identified opportunities I hadn't seen, explained the "why" behind her recommendations, and gave me the confidence to tackle revisions with clarity. If you're looking for an editor wh...

I can’t praise Jo too highly. She has helped me to turn my scribbling into something I can now submit to literary agents.

Jain provided me with guidance that I consider incredible. The notes and comments made throughout the text were clear and concise, enabling me to interpret and implement the suggested changes. She helped me rearrange my manuscript to read in a smooth, orderly manner. It is now a pleasure to read. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for an editor. If I write another book, I will look for Jain.

This is the fifth project I've worked with Victoria on and she's just wonderful. I really enjoy working with her. She's professional, helpful, timely, and fun to work with. Her feedback is valuable and well thought out. I highly recommend her!

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 hired Bonnie for both copy editing and interior book design for my nonfiction book, Stop Stealing From Yourself, and I'm glad I found someone who does both well. Bonnie was timely, responsive, and easy to work with throughout the entire process. She answered my questions clearly and never made me feel like I was asking too much. What stood out most was her willingness to accommodate small changes even toward the end of our contract — that kind of flexibility matters when you're finalizing ...

Marta has been a great pleasure to work with! She understood exactly what I wanted to convey from the cover, she was responsive, delivered in the promised time frame and was very kind and helpful overall. I am definetely going to work with her again; the cover of my upcoming novel looks amazing, I am very happy.

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!
