With Travis you're getting a true pro and - importantly - candor. His feedback is direct, honest, and fair and immensely helpful whether looking at minor copy edits, structural emphasis, or the big picture of storytelling. He's got a great eye for what can take the story to the next level and I'm confident that he significantly elevated not just my work but my understanding of the craft.

Peter was exceptionally timely, artful in execution, and continually communicative. He treats your project with the care and intuition it deserves. Simply put, if you want high-caliber work crafted with excellence, you should hire Peter.

Allen was a delight to work with. He was thoughtful, creative, and entirely responsive to our needs and feedback. The quality of his work speaks for itself. We couldn't be happier.

This was my second book working with Mozelle. She is fantastic. I am never in the dark. I always know what to expect with her because of her great communication. I have learned so much with her. She doesn't just send back files and leave you to figure out anything. Her explanations are extremely thorough, and I really feel good with each interaction. I will hire her every time if I am able.

This is my second time working with Miriam, and as usual, her insight and edits are worth every penny. She's professional, thorough, and has an incredible eye for detail. If you're still on the fence after reading that, then let me just say this: My manuscript has received multiple full requests. If that's why you're here, then hire Miriam. (You're welcome.)

I think the first of many amazing attributes of Nathan is that he is selective about those with whom he will collaborate. Even though he was one of the five persons I pitched to help me, and he said yes, after that he really did his homework on me, to get a sense for me, and make sure I was legitimate (especially important for the type of work I published). He has the accolades and prior experience in my genre (climbing, adventure) and this was evident from his various published works. Fro...

Through Reedsy, I shortlisted several professionals to proofread my manuscript and provide copy-editing recommendations. Robin stood out among a high-quality field of proofreaders and copy editors, not only because of his professional experience and platform reviews, but also because of his interest in the subject of my novel. The questions he asked about the story and the direction I had taken with the main protagonist, the French artist Suzanne Valadon, convinced me that Robin was the righ...

Sharing your work for critique and editing is a challenging step in the writing journey. You hope your editor likes your work, but you also need them to be comfortable and honest, so their guidance can truly help you improve. I did not just gain an editor with Steph, I gained a friend for life and a Literary Sherpa who held my hand through the whole process. She talked me off the ledge more times than she would probably like to admit, gave me a swift kick in the butt when I got down on my...

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 Kelly was one of the best decisions I made for my book. I had already run my manuscript through multiple editing programs and thought it was in pretty good shape, but Kelly still found countless errors, inconsistencies, and opportunities for improvement that I had completely missed. The book read and flowed so much better after her improvements. What impressed me most was how meticulous and thorough she was throughout the entire process. Not only did she carefully edit the manu...

The whole process was a joy. I have no complaints. Robin is helpful, quick to answer any questions, and above all expert at what she does. Comunication was wonderful. She provided updates all along the way. The work was done on time. It really comes across that she cares for what she does and cares for you and your writing. If I write another book I will be happy to work with her again knowing that she will make the book better.

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...

Lynne Walker is an exceptionally talented editor whose precision and insight elevated every page of my manuscript while preserving my voice. She completed an inline edit for me, and her comments were sharp, constructive, and always grounded in a deep understanding of tone and rhythm. Working with her was seamless. She’s professional, punctual, and consistently responsive. Every exchange reflected her care and commitment to excellence. Lynne brought not only skill but genuine respect f...

Lynne is a fantastic writing coach. She is a natural teacher and honed in quickly on key issues with my draft novel and how to address them. Lynne's insight and advice is helping tremendously as I revise my draft--elevating my understanding of storytelling and my confidence. These are lessons I never learned in a creative writing course at university, but I wish I had. She provides such clarity that her suggestions seem natural and obvious afterwards--but the fact is, I never would have ar...

It was a pleasure to work with him. He gave some really sound advice, and I would recommend any author trying to get an agent, should go to him and get some help with the query letter. I've already had one bite so the proof is in the pudding! Thanks again, Matt!
