I can't recommend Rebecca Roy highly enough for a developmental edit. What I've received has been exceptional and far more than what I even expected in such a short amount of time. There was nothing rushed about the edit I received - both on my script and an overarching in-depth document filled with nothing but suggestions and, more importantly, the reason behind the suggestions. Rebecca has also been available before, during and after, to discuss any of the suggested edits. Many I took on bo...

Working with Rebecca Allen on my manuscript, The Case of Lord Simon, was an absolute game-changer. This was my first novel and my first time working with an editor, and Rebecca made the entire process feel both professional and approachable—from her clear communication to her thoughtful, meticulous edit. Her copy edit was thorough without being heavy-handed. She strengthened clarity, consistency, and flow while preserving my voice and the historical tone of the book. Her comments were specif...

Andie didn’t just edit my book — she felt it. She approached Flight of a Dog’s Soul with both precision and heart, treating every line with the care of someone who truly understood what the story meant. Her feedback was thoughtful, her edits seamless, and her empathy rare. If you want an editor who makes your work better and honors its soul, hire Andie.

Lee was a pleasure to work with and did an incredible job on my book. This wasn’t a straightforward project… it’s a book-style journal with a lot of moving parts, interactive elements, and a very specific vision I wanted to bring to life. Somehow, he managed to pull it all together seamlessly. The formatting, layout, and illustrations are spot on, and he made the whole thing flow in a way that looks effortless. On top of that, the cover design nailed the vision I had in my head. I came into...

Gabriella was a sharp, efficient editing partner on my government art grant application. She worked with my tight schedule for a quick turnaround and helped me submit everything by the deadline despite broader uncertainties. As a non-native English–speaking academic, I felt fortunate to be working with someone who shares an arts and humanities background and understands the nuance of academic writing. I especially valued how her editing feedback was clear, respectful, and explained her rea...

Not only did Chris make some recommendations and tweaks that helped me paint a better picture of my story, he answered some additional questions related to the writing process. Including the next steps to take if I want to turn my story into something more. Good energy, great feedback, and really great work all around!

Brooke is incredible! She has taken my writing to a level that I didn’t know was possible. Working with her has been nothing short of amazing. I’m very grateful for her expertise. I now have writing that I am confident putting out for the world to see.

Working with Robert was an intensive and ultimately rewarding experience. His proofreading pass was meticulous and detail-oriented, and he did not hesitate to challenge areas that could be clearer, tighter, or more precise. Going through his edits was more demanding than I initially expected, but the results speak for themselves. Even though the manuscript was already in strong shape, Robert found meaningful opportunities to refine it further. The book is now significantly stronger, cleaner,...

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.

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.

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...

Sarah is an exceptional editor with a thorough understanding of how to take a manuscript to the next level. I knew from our first interaction that she was a consummate professional as she set the tone for our working relationship with kindness and efficiency. She delivered her suggestions and advice promptly with an obvious eye for detail and care . She just gets it! I am so pleased to have found an editor that is reliable and insightful. I highly recommend Sarah.

Working with Laura was an excellent experience. She demonstrated a keen eye, great sensitivity, and strong technical mastery. I wholeheartedly recommend her work.

Pamela has always delivered fantastic work on time. She's excellent when it comes to translating romance and erotica, and she's also comfortable translating stories with taboo sexual themes. It's always a pleasure to work with her, and that's why I'm still a repeat customer!

Rebecca was so easy to work with and made the experience very collaborative! She saw my vision and not only made it come to life but made it better than even what I had imagined. I can’t wait to work with her again in the future!
