Mine was a difficult project - review the sequel of an unpublished first novel. One other person described the project as 'the literary equivalent of surgical separation of Siamese twins'. That said, I was blown away by the quality of the output I got from Elayne. Her comments were accurate, insightful, helpgul and nuanced. I have worked with a number of editors, and while all have been good, this was a different level. It was extremely helpful to get the perspective of a multiply-published...

Working with Olga was a great experience from start to finish. She showed a high level of professionalism throughout the project. She understood the concept of the book very quickly and stayed aligned with it at every stage. This made the collaboration smooth and focused. Her attention to detail stood out. She challenged elements when needed, refined ideas with precision, and ensured the final output stayed consistent with the original vision. She was also very reliable and easy to work with...

Working with Bonnie has been an incredibly great experience. I’m truly grateful for her support in bringing one of my dream projects to life. Throughout the entire process, I deeply appreciated her expertise, kindness and genuine enthusiasm for creating something beautiful together. Collaborating with her allowed me to fully relax into her professionalism and trust her work completely. She had a wonderful way of supporting my ideas, thoughtfully challenging me when needed and introducing fr...

Devon went above and beyond on the editing project for my historical fiction book. I really appreciated her superb attention to detail and consistency, as well as her professionalism and responsiveness throughout the process. She even completed the work a full week ahead of schedule. Highly recommended!

I had the pleasure of working with Ed on my children’s STEM book, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Ed designed and led the illustration effort from start to finish, while always making sure my vision was front and center. The final illustrations are vibrant, engaging, and exactly what I envisioned for young readers. I’d highly recommend Ed to anyone looking for an illustrator who can lead a project with professionalism and deliver exceptional work. In fact, I’m already working...

I have worked with Veronica in the past and will continue to do so in the future. She is very kind, patient, and quick to respond to messages. She is also a creative problem solver and tackles any speed bumps that arise in the book publishing process with finesse and positivity.

My co-author and I had never worked with an illustrator before, so we came into the project with a lot of apprehension. It's a challenge when you're not sure what to expect and are in unfamiliar territory. What drew us to Claudia was not only her amazing artistic abilities, but most of all, her bio and other reviews mentioned her patience. The reviews did not lie. We needed a lot of guidance through this process and Claudia delivered that, along with the most stunning illustrations which real...

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...

Working with Elisabeth was an absolute joy. Her communication was excellent and proactive from start to finish—I always felt supported and never left guessing about next steps. As a first-time author, I especially valued her thoughtful suggestions and helpful guidance, which made the entire process smooth and confidence-building. The bespoke design elements Elisabeth created were gorgeous—unique, personal, and perfectly reflective of both my taste and the overall aesthetic I envisioned for t...

The best decision I made during the publication process was hiring Nathan to be my interior layout and cover designer. He took my initial vision, ran with it, and developed multiple products beyond what I had ever imagined. For context, my book is a how-to guide. It includes main body text, call-out boxes, figures, tables, and photos with and without bleed. In short, the format is complicated. Add to that, I wanted it produced in large paperback, electronic publication, and audio. Nathan fi...

As a first-time author, (The Why of Sports) it dawned on me that I would soon need a cover design for my book. Luckily I stumbled upon Reedsy then found Sebastian. I really didn't have an idea about a cover design, but had a hunch he would come up with something wonderful. Indeed, he did, showing me a number of great designs before I settled on one. He then led me through the rest of the process, patiently showing me option after option until it was just perfect. I have come to know a lot of ...

Absolutely wonderful working with Allison! She provided in-depth notes and comments throughout my manuscript. The thoughts she has given will strengthen my novel without a doubt. I love the mix of encouragement and constructive feedback!

Working with Daniel was a pleasure. His design was beautiful and captured exactly what I was hoping for. Whenever I asked for an edit to be made, he was responsive and happy to do it. When I had questions and needed clarification because this was my first book, he was there with both reassurance and confidence. He went above and beyond at the end of the project when I was very anxious about getting the book to print and made himself super available for last minute adjustments. I worked with b...

I am so thankful for George! He is patient, understanding, a great communicator, and above all else a true professional. His enviable artistic skills brought my characters to life in a way I couldn't ever have imagined. I was so pleased that I literally opened up his drafts on my laptop and kept them open all day every day just so I could glance at them when I got a break. I cannot recommend George enough; he is the real deal. You will not be sorry.

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...
