Vicki was extremely professional and from day one she understood our concept and engaged with our book. Her ideas were great and she has created the perfect cover for our book - The Dash of Life. She is easy to work with, great at communicating and has been instrumental in making this an exciting and enjoyable project.

Working with Rannia was an exceptional experience from start to finish. She brought both creative sensitivity and technical precision to the design of Unchosen, translating a concept-driven manuscript into a cohesive visual identity across cover and interior. Her communication was clear, prompt, and professional throughout the process. She handled revisions thoughtfully, incorporated feedback carefully, and navigated the technical complexities of KDP formatting with confidence and expertise....

I had a wonderful experience working with Edyta on my children's picture book. She was professional, responsive, and a joy to collaborate with throughout the entire project. Edyta carefully considered my feedback, made revisions promptly, and brought the story to life with beautiful, warm, and engaging illustrations. She also created a polished and professional book design that exceeded my expectations. The cover is especially eye-catching and perfectly captures the spirit of the story. I...

A pleasure to work with, very professional and all her edits were on point. Thank you!

Dora could not have been better. Aside from being timely and thoughtful, her work captured not only the essence of the story but how I envisioned it. Absolutely first rate.

David was as advertised. Professional, amazing speed, highest level of quality of work and tremendous coaching. I wound highly recommend him in any editing capacity. I'm already looking to have him do more in our current project because I know any additional input he has will make my manuscript immeasurably better!

I worked with Steph for developmental and line editing (who hasn't left out a few hundred commas here or there...) and I LOVED thier vibe and approach to the whole process from the very start when I sent them a sample of my work. I walked into the process of editing very green (this is my first novel) and Steph was very supportive, constructive and helpful throughout. Steph is very real and authentic in their approach to giving feedback and notes. Also, they're incredibly good at teasing ou...

I can't say enough great things about Wesley. As someone with a packed schedule, I was nervous about how hands-on the design process would need to be, but Wesley made it completely effortless. Working with Wesley was one of the best decisions I made for my book. From the very start, he demonstrated exceptional attention to detail and required minimal direction, a rare quality that made the entire process seamless for a busy professional like me. He picked up on small cues and ran with them, k...

As a first-time author, I was honestly very nervous going into this process and didn’t quite know what to expect. I was even nervous to show my manuscript to anyone, let alone a professional editor. From the very beginning, Sophie made me feel comfortable and supported. She approached my work with such care that I quickly knew she was the right person to help preserve my voice while enhancing the manuscript. What initially felt like a daunting process became something I genuinely enjoyed than...

Working with Mary Ann was a wonderful experience! She was quick to respond to feedback and did an incredible job of capturing the vibes of my story. I couldn't be happier with how the cover turned out!

Rebecca is a skilled editor. Before the process began, she met with me on Zoom to ask if there were any specific areas I wanted her to focus on. She carefully reviewed my manuscript and offered clear, incisive suggestions throughout. She also provided a detailed 2½-page editorial memo that gave a helpful “big picture” view—offering encouragement, highlighting what was working well, and noting areas to consider revising, such as maintaining more consistent chapter length. Rebecca checked in ...

Scott copyedited my 131,000-word science fiction novel, the first book in a planned series, and I could not have asked for a better experience. The mechanical work was flawless: spelling, punctuation, capitalization, and a comprehensive style sheet for my invented terminology that I’ll now use across the entire series. But what set Scott apart was everything beyond the commas. He tracked plot logic across 43 chapters, catching moments where a villain’s choices needed stronger motivation, wher...

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...

Ashley was fantastic to work with for my developmental edit! He was extremely helpful and professional, was prompt with returning messages and with completing his work. He provided great advice, clarification and outside-the-box ideas to help make my manuscript MUCH tighter and cleaner in the end. I would absolutely work with him again in the future!

Christina edited my debut memoir, a trauma memoir and self-help hybrid at 76,000 words, and I could not have asked for a better fit. She is trauma-informed in the real sense, not the marketing sense. She has lived her own, she has published four memoirs of her own, and she was a mental health nurse before any of that. She understood what my book was trying to do from the first exchange, and she said something in her very first message that made me hire her: that her voice is different from m...
