Robert truly went above and beyond for my project. He fixed up my grammar and punctuation, but also gave tons of general feedback in terms of storyline, plot, my characters, etc, which he did not need to do, but I really, really appreciated it. He gave me insight to new perspectives not just from an editor, but from a reader, as well. If you choose him for your project, you will not regret it.

The professional experience of editing my first narrative non-fiction manuscript was very enjoyable and successful. After an initial video chat to get to know each other, the work began with clear deadlines and progress payments established. Although at first I was naturally concerned about how the process would unfold, I was quickly reassured by Shaun's competence and willingness to both discuss and listen to all my input. It was truly a collaborative process and the outcome has been a tight...

I loved working with Diletta! She delivered exactly what I asked for, and went above and beyond to provide options and opportunities for collaboration. I would definitely recommend her.

Charlie was wonderful to work with very responsiveness , did everything I needed made great suggestions right to the end. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him for his skill and professionalism.

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...

Before the project began Ore scheduled a Zoom consultation to understand my goals, discuss the services available, and align on pricing. She took the time to specialize her approach based on what I needed rather than offering a one size fits all service. That level of care before the work even started set the tone for everything that followed. Ore ensured that I chose the right service based on what I was looking for. We agreed that a manuscript assessment was the best choice as I had initial...

Pamela did an outstanding job translating my novel and this was on time and at a very competitive price. I used a lot of idiomatic phrases involving comedy and she did an excellent job finding the right German expression. She also translated the metadata on top. I thoroughly recommend working with Pamela and I will most certainly work with her again if I need another novel translated into German.

Megan was an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish. She demonstrated exceptional attention to detail, strong design judgment, and clear communication throughout the entire process. Deliverables were completed on time, exceeded expectations, and were thoughtfully executed across both cover and interior files. Her responsiveness and professionalism made the collaboration smooth and stress-free. I would highly recommend Megan to any author looking for high-quality, reliable design ...

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!

I thoroughly enjoyed working with Chelsea Beam! She took the time to edit my book and provided timely feedback throughout the process. Her edits strengthened my content while preserving my voice. I will definitely work with Chelsea again on future projects.

Where can I begin? Conni has helped me truly transform my writing and my book. When we began collaborating, I had about 3 chapters written and the structure figured out, but once I started working with Conni, my book was elevated. She helped me (and pushed me because I was a bit unsure) to create more structure and predictability to the book and chapters. I went from "I don't want to spoon-feed my readers" to thinking "well I do have to explain it because they can't read my mind." The structu...

Working with Sean Strain was one of the most valuable decisions I made in bringing The Inner Advantage to life. His editorial instinct is precise without being prescriptive, his feedback comes with the kind of clarity that moves a manuscript forward rather than sideways, and his ability to adapt to the rhythm of a project that kept evolving showed a professionalism that is genuinely rare. Sean never imposed his voice on mine. He sharpened it. If you are a writer looking for an editor who resp...

Holly provided a developmental edit on my 68,000-word memoir. She delivered a thorough editorial letter plus over 100 inline comments, but what impressed me most was how deeply she engaged with the material. She didn't just fix things, she helped me understand what the book was actually about. Her structural feedback was specific and actionable: where to open, what to move, which characters needed more presence. She identified tense inconsistencies I'd been blind to and gave me grammar lesso...

Working with Sakshi was an incredible experience from start to finish. She is exceptionally talented, professional, and patient. Throughout the project, I made numerous requests and scope adjustments, and she handled every change with grace, flexibility, and a positive attitude. Her creativity brought my vision to life in ways I couldn’t have imagined, and she was consistently responsive, thoughtful, and detail-oriented. I truly felt supported through the entire process. I highly recommend ...

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...
