Florin delivered a full cover for my upcoming psychological thriller with exceptional skill. His unique artistic style and precise understanding of the project brief brought my vision to life flawlessly. The atmosphere of the scene was captured perfectly — his attention to detail and expressive technique elevated the design beyond my expectations. The final result was even better than I had imagined. I highly recommend Florin for your project. Working with him was a fantastic experience!

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...

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.

Megan provided excellent developmental and copy editing for my 26,000-word memoir. Her key strength was identifying structural gaps in the narrative - she noted something felt "missing," which led me to add crucial backstory that significantly improved the story's emotional logic. She delivered on time, accommodated substantial revisions professionally, and preserved my voice while improving clarity. Clear communication throughout. I would not hesitate to work with Megan again.

Lisa Kaitz is, without question, the finest editor I have worked with—and I say that having collaborated with more than ten editors across multiple books. She is exceptionally focused, remarkably attentive to even the smallest details, and consistently thoughtful in her editorial judgment. Like all truly great editors, Lisa is loyal first and foremost to the reader. She challenged me when necessary, strengthened the narrative at every level, and worked tirelessly to help me produce the strong...

Chet was a professional talent on so many levels and I could not have had a better experience. He made me feel safe and secure with our discussions, navigated me through the process, and offered very strategic advice and/or edits without making me feel pressured. We were able to have a warm yet professional relationship too which I think is very important for the end product. Chet is a strong recommend - his talent is incredible and without him, would not have had the confidence to bring thi...

Working with Sarah has been an absolute pleasure. She is an exceptionally skilled and thoughtful editor who combines professionalism with genuine care for the author’s work. Her edits on “Stigma in Dementia Care” were precise, insightful, and respectful of my voice and academic intent. She provided clear guidance on structure, tone, and flow while helping me tighten the text and meet journal requirements without losing depth or meaning. Sarah’s communication was always prompt, warm, and enco...

Working with Marian on my first book was a real privilege. She has skill, vision and knowledge and shares them freely and warmly. She was able to read my book and understand exactly what it needed and what I wanted (sometimes even before I knew!). Marian is professional, meticulous and personable; I wouldn't hesitate to use her again.

Hannah was awesome! I received a 55 page PDF with detailed notes on every single chapter in my book. On top of that I received a notes throughout the entire manuscript. The amount of stuff I learned throughout my interactions from Hannah will last with me forever. Honestly, the work she sent back to me was a master class in development editing.

Working with Susan was one of the most reassuring parts of my publishing journey. From the very first draft to the final polish, she brought not only an expert eye for detail, but also a deep understanding of tone, flow, and emotional resonance. Susan has a rare gift for preserving the author’s voice while gently guiding the manuscript to a stronger, more refined version of itself. Her edits were always thoughtful and purposeful, and her comments often pushed me to think deeper about my mess...

Working with Robin was exactly what my story needed! Her honesty and industry knowledge are what I have been searching for, and I didn't even realize it until I got her feedback. I still can't believe how much her advice improved my story. I absolutely look forward to working with her on more projects.

I loved working with Megan; she was very quick and responsive, and I'm thrilled with the final cover. She was very clear from the start on what was included, with no hidden extras for me to worry about. The selection of initial concepts was based on what I'd requested, but also with some new ideas, all of which were a great fit for my book. As a first-time author, I had lots of questions, including questions about her questions! But she was very patient with her answers, which really helped t...

Phil was great to work with, understood my vision right out of the gate, and brought the artwork to a form where my cover tells a story itself. Very polite, professional and willing to go in any direction I needed, with guidance from his experience in this industry, which was perfect for a first time self-publisher. This is the first in a trilogy and look forward to working with Phil on the other two!

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...
