Vicky provided me with a comprehensive marketing plan for my books. She was patient with me and answered my initial questions and adapted the plan to suit my needs. Highly recommended.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Above and Beyond – A Perfect Fit for My Poetry Collection Angela was an absolute joy to work with on my poetry collection Kentucky Soulminer. From the beginning, it felt like a perfect fit—especially when I discovered we both had Kentucky roots! She brought a deep understanding of the tone, rhythm, and emotional nuance my work needed, and her feedback was both insightful and encouraging. Angela didn’t just meet expectations—she exceeded them. In addition to the thorough editing, ...

This guy is the bee's knees. Understood my descriptions perfectly, like he was seeing right into my brain. Fun, and badass style. Has a real knack for drawing monsters. Professional and communicative and a cool dude. No notes.

Kourtney was an absolute delight to work with. I literally looked through hundreds of portfolios before I came across hers and knew instantly by her art style that she was perfect for my project. I knew the art would be exceptional, but I wasn't expecting someone who actually took what I was trying to do to heart and made every image more stunning than the last. She was beyond easy to communicate with, diligent in her efforts with keeping me up to date with where things were in the process, a...

Octavio was amazing to work with. He did a wonderful job with my cover. He was timely in getting back to me with updates on the project. This was my first time working with an illustrator on a book cover and Octavio was patient and easy to work with. He had wonderful vision in helping bring my ideas to life. I would work with him again.

Claire was a delight to work with. She was knowledgeable, prompt, and thorough. It was easy to gain confidence in her work very quickly because of her timely communication and the samples she sent early on. This was an investment for me, as a first time author and one-woman business, and it was well worth the money. My book is a much better product because of Claire's help. She also explained things to me and answered all of my questions. She saved me time by reorganizing my chapters after I ...

Alan has now completed a few projects for me, and he is the best. He is responsive, professional, and always does an incredible job.

Amazing guide. I am enjoying his support and guidances. Working under the guidance of David on my possible book is both a privilege and a transformative experience. His background as a seasoned novelist, particularly in military and maritime thrillers, brings a level of narrative discipline and structural clarity that is rare to find. What I appreciate most is his ability to respect my voice and subject matter, while still pushing me, constructively, toward better phrasing, sharper dialogue, ...

I absolutely loved working with Andrew on my project. His feedback, review, and suggestions were all dead on the things that I had not even noticed. He was concise. He had explained everything thoroughly giving me the bigger picture of why his suggestions and or feedback would improve a section or chapter in my novel. I highly recommend Andrew and his professionalism and hope to be able to use him again in my next project.

Dena was a pleasure to work with—she was open to my feedback and suggestions, and she took the time to understand my needs. She provided insightful comments and demonstrated a strong understanding of the craft. It's clear she knows what she’s doing when it comes to proofreading, and I really appreciated her efforts throughout the process.

It was an absolute pleasure to work with Alex on my book cover. The concept he developed really captured the vision I had for my novel. Alex was responsive to my feedback, and was patient as I found my way around the different publishing platforms (and hence the required formats for the cover). I am delighted with the final product. Thanks Alex!

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...

Working with Adam was a joy! He understood my story's mission and provided suggestions that significantly enhanced my manuscript. His creativity inspired me, and I was able to have lots of fun reworking jokes while adding depth to my characters and plot. Can't wait to work with him again!

Working with Hunter on a project I was stewarding was an absolute joy! I thought my proofreading and editing skills were decent, but Hunter elevated the manuscript to a level of excellence that blew me away. And he did it all while keeping the style and voice of the author. Hunter explained every aspect of his process and clearly outlined his approach. He also answered multiple questions I had on grammar rules, which proved an extremely welcome learning experience for me. He was highly profe...

Simona’s artwork exceeded my expectations by a significant margin. I genuinely did not anticipate the cover turning out as polished, thoughtful, and visually striking as it did. From the very beginning, she demonstrated an impressive ability to interpret the essence of the book with minimal guidance. I only provided a brief description, yet she was able to immediately grasp the tone, themes, and overall feeling I was aiming for. What stood out most was how little direction she actually neede...
