Angela did a phenomenal job editing my novel. Her notes were sharp, thoughtful, and consistently elevated the manuscript in ways that felt both intuitive and expertly guided. She has an exceptional grasp of voice, pacing, and clarity, and her suggestions around narrative consistency were exactly what the book needed. Her line edits were precise, her developmental comments insightful, and the whole experience showed me why she’s so highly regarded. I’m incredibly grateful for the care she bro...

Mark is an excellent writer and scholar. He has a true passion for what he does. He is personable and articulate, a true professional. I come from a background in Philosophy and he navigates that with excellence. He is creative as well; you can see that with his personal writing. He has the credentials to support what he is doing and you won't be disappointed. I enjoyed working with him. He feels like a friend who shows concern for the well-being of your project. He is deeply invested in gi...

Working with Kelly has been an extremely valuable experience. After months of writing and rewriting my manuscript, I had become too close to it to recognize repetition, structural weaknesses and patterns that were affecting the flow. Kelly was thoughtful, honest and constructive. She identified where the manuscript could be tightened and strengthened without trying to change my story or replace my voice. Acting on her notes has made a considerable difference, and I believe the manuscript i...

Candace was an absolute pleasure to work with! She was quick, communicative, and so easy to collaborate with—she made the entire process seamless from start to finish. Her art is absolutely stunning. She brought my world to life in a way that genuinely exceeded my expectations, and I couldn’t be happier with the final map. I would hire her again in a heartbeat!

Working with Molly as my developmental editor was the BEST thing I could have possibly done for my book. Her feedback was a game-changer. She has a rare talent for seeing both the big picture AND providing surgical insights that, together, were the secret sauce to elevate my messy manuscript into the book it deserved to be. She was also lovely to work with: warm but honest. Even her harshest notes always felt infused with her genuine belief in the story. I am so grateful for Molly's partnersh...

I want to begin this review with four Words: Tricia saved my manuscript. When I first wrote this manuscript - after personal attempts at editing, I initially sent it to QT. I got nothing but rejections. It made me sit back and ask myself, "Is there something wrong with this? What am I not seeing that they are seeing?" And as a writer, dealing with multiple literary agents, it's hard to understand what they are explicitly looking for unless you are already in the know. So, I after researchi...

Shannon was wonderful to work with and did an excellent job with the developmental edits and copy edits for my debut novel. The style sheet was spot on, the developmental feedback was thorough and extremely helpful in identifying plot holes and inconsistencies, and her copy editing seemed to catch every one of my numerous grammatical mistakes. I've already booked my second book with her for later this year!

Kristen's attention to detail and thorough understanding of how to improve a manuscript were nothing short of remarkable. I requested several editorial services, all of which were completed promptly and to an exceptionally high standard. Her feedback was insightful, constructive, and consistently explained not only what could be improved, but why those changes strengthened the manuscript. Throughout the process, she was professional, communicative, and genuinely invested in helping my work re...

From the day of inquiry, Elena was thorough and set expectations that she'd meet. She actually exceeded my expectations! I learned a lot about writing a book from the edits that she made, and I would definitely collaborate with her on a new project!

Wow! Working with Nikki was such a wonderful experience and gave me exactly what I needed on a project: a pair of fresh, talented eyes to polish a story and make it stand out! Her editorial insights were fantastic and left me feeling refreshed and excited to revise! If you're looking at taking your manuscript to the next level, consider hiring Nikki as she's a gifted editor and so kind, positive, and warm to work with!

Kateryna and I have just begun our project but she is a great fit and I am thrilled to have her be my illustrator!!!

Working with Mallory Bingham has been a genuinely uplifting experience. From the very beginning, she brought a level of care, detail, and positivity that far exceeded my expectations. What impressed me most wasn’t just her editing skill, which is top-notch, but her dedication after the job was officially done. Mallory continued to offer help, encouragement, and insightful pointers to improve my work. She brought out the best in my writing without ever overshadowing my voice. Her thoughtful f...

I could not recommend Ellie enough!! She is an incredibly talented web designer, capable of bringing even your craziest visions to life, but more than that, she is just an absolute joy to work with!! She is professional, but has so much enthusiasm and passion for her craft. She is responsive, even whilst accommodating crazy time zone differences. Her work is incredibly high quality, and she even goes the extra mile to be sure that you have everything you could possibly need, including trainin...

Michael really lived up to the expectations that I had when I selected him based on his profile and accomplishments. He was very personable and professional, every step along the way. He was quick to respond to my manuscript and queries and gave great information in return. In addition, he was comforting to respond to my questions and perspectives and at no point said that my ideas were crazy or too far out there. I felt like he respected my concerns and provided feedback to really take m...

Simply put, if you want to work with an excellent editor, hire Jenna Blum. She is a consummate professional who provided the guidance I need to make sure my book will meet the highest standards. Her humanistic approach praises areas of strength, identifies issues, and offers superb suggestions to resolve those issues. During our Zoom meeting Jenna suggested I was coming up with the idea to improve my book. Nope. Her prompting and suggestions led me to those ideas. I feel exceptionally ho...
