This was my first time working with a book cover artist and I chose Lynn because she had designed book covers to best selling books I actually read, in fact it was the cover of those books which had me picking them out in the first place. Lynn did not disappoint this first time novelist at all! I now have a book cover which is spectacular and everything I imaged when I first started this procedure-- maybe even more. I absolutely love the cover! And I'm hoping to work with her again on my next...

Hunter was so professional and thorough, and it made the experience painless. This was my first book and my first time ever being involved in this process. He was up front and detailed about the process and, based on my writing sample, took the initiative to structure a set of services that actually met the needs of my work. Hunter was able to get to my work sooner and complete it ahead of schedule. I felt informed and comfortable throughout the entire process, and I truly believe that The In...

James is a fantastic editor. He did a developmental edit of my first novel, helping me develop and build confidence in my writing skills. He was incredibly responsive, professional, and meticulous in his attention to the logic and resonance of every sentence, while also keeping me focused on the overarching structure and tone of the story. I feel so lucky to have had a chance to work with him and would do it again in a heartbeat.

Working with Lynn was a dream come true. My budget was minimal, yet Lynn was extremely gracious in working within it. It was one of the biggest blessings I’ve experienced on this project. Her kindness and thoughtfulness throughout our collaboration time speak volumes of the wonderful person she is. Not only was she very responsive, she also provided several options for me at various stages. The book cover she created truly exceeded my expectations and is gorgeous. Thank you, Lynn!

Hunter vastly exceeded what I actually expected he would do. His input was comprehensive, detailed and made the book significantly stronger than it would have been otherwise. He was very quick to communicate and happy to answer any questions, no matter how dumb they might have sounded.

Charlie is proof that even in our rapidly changing world that nothing beats a human artist. Our collaboration was seamless. Charlie was very communicative and professional throughout the entire process. He read my manuscript, which at first I found surprising, but that attention to detail enabled him to translate my words and characters that I've only pictured in my head into a beautiful manifestation as my book's cover. I am in awe of the cover he produced and look forward to being able to ...

This is my first time seeking professional editing and writing. Working with Dylan has been fantastic. His edits are comprehensive and have significantly increased my confidence in my writing and manuscript. He has unparalleled responsiveness, attention to detail, and care. I fully intend to work with him on my additional future manuscripts.

Veronica did an outstanding job bringing the vision for Social Media Melted My Brain (and I Still Pressed Post) to life. From the very beginning, she understood the tone and message behind the book and translated that vision into a bold, eye-catching design that perfectly captures its humor and commentary. Her creativity, attention to detail, and ability to take abstract ideas and turn them into visually engaging artwork made the entire process feel seamless and collaborative. What impressed...

I am so grateful that I was able to find Philip Bashe to review my manuscript. After reviewing his previous body of work - he was the only person I wanted to provide a copy/line edit for my book. He provided a thorough and exhaustive edit not only on time - but actually two weeks ahead of time to accommodate my own schedule - allowing me to finish my work during a natural break in my own life. More importantly than simply completing the work early, however, he poured an incredible level of...

Working with Clint was hands down one of the best decisions I’ve made for my book. From the first conversation, Clint understood exactly what I was trying to create, not just visually, but emotionally. He didn’t just design a cover; he translated the story's soul into something that feels powerful and cinematic. The level of detail, the composition, the typography, all of it was executed at a true publisher level. What impressed me most was his ability to listen and then elevate the vision ...

I handed Daniel a manuscript and a whole lot of nervous energy. He handed back a beautifully formatted book — and, more importantly, a sense of calm I didn't expect. From day one, he provided FAQs and clear guidance that made the process transparent and approachable. His responsiveness and genuine support throughout the project turned what could have been a stressful first self-publishing experience into something I actually enjoyed. Highly recommend.

I worked with V on a query package consultation. At the time, I had thirty rejections and one full request. The very first reply after I integrated V's feedback was a full request from a dream agent—someone I never thought I'd even have a chance with. The pricing was extremely reasonable (if anything, I expected to pay more) for everything I got out of it. If I don't get agented on this manuscript, I intend to hire V before I send out a single query on my next project. Cannot recommend them h...

Vicki did an amazing job with my book cover and I would definitely recommend her services. She is an experienced professional, used to dealing with self-publishing authors. She was patient enough to answer all of my questions. From the beginning of the project, I knew I was in good hands. I asked for several tweaks and changes after receiving the first mock-ups. She was reactive and easy to communicate with. I'm delighted with the final result. 

Chandler did an exceptional job bringing this book to life. From the very beginning, she was thoughtful, detail-oriented, and deeply respectful of the tone and structure I was aiming for. This was not a conventional manuscript, and she handled it with great sensitivity — especially in maintaining the balance between structure and spaciousness that the book required. She was also very patient and flexible throughout the process. There were a few delays on my end as we worked through publishi...

I couldn't have asked for a better creative partner than Wayne Oram. Realizing this was my first children's book, Wayne was exceptionally patient with me throughout this journey. What's more, he shared valuable insights along the way that brought out the best in my writing. When it comes to illustrators, few can do what Wayne does. His ability to bring characters to life is truly impressive. His whimsical drawings create a special kind of magic you can almost feel as your eyes explore each...
