Nicola was SO wonderful to work with! She very quickly responded to me, set a finish date, and finished *before* said date, which was wonderful. But most importantly, she sent me the most thoughtful notes that dove into plot, structure, character development, age range, marketability, and more. Everything I needed to know to help me make it the best it can possibly be! She even shared which house she thought it could be the best fit for, which I so appreciated. And she was just so lovely with...

If you are reading this review because, like me a few months ago, you are dipping your toes into getting professional help with your book, then all I can say is DO IT! I read through all of Mark’s reviews, and I knew he was the type of editor I wanted and needed. From the moment I made contact, I felt at ease. He is enthusiastic and genuine, but he doesn’t sugar-coat either. The thing I found with Mark is that he really understands the journey. I do not know the writing world, and I was hone...

Abbie was a great help in editing my manuscript for publication- I highly recommend!

It was a pleasure to work with Laura. From the start she was enthusiastic and supportive. It is a difficult thing to put your work up for criticism, but from our correspondence I got a good feeling that Laura understood what I was trying to do with my story and would be constructive. The feedback I received was encouraging, with strengths and positive elements clearly articulated and evidenced. The changes she suggested were targeted and helpful; she had clearly understood what I was looking ...

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.

It's the second time I've worked with Rozi - she did an amazing copy-edit and polished the manuscript to standards. I'm really happy with the result and look forward collaboration with her a third time.

Brooke is a highly professional and seasoned editor whose insight and sensitivity to a writer’s voice make the collaborative process both effective and deeply rewarding. She is remarkably flexible and adaptive, meeting the work exactly where it is while helping guide it toward greater clarity and strength. I am especially grateful for her help in shaping several titles for my fairy tales — titles that captured the essence of each story with a precision I had been searching for but could not ...

As a debut author, this was my first experience working with a professional editor, and I couldn’t have asked for a better introduction to the process. Micaela provided thoughtful, detailed feedback that strengthened my manuscript in meaningful ways. Her notes on POV, pacing, repetition, emotional clarity, and trusting the reader challenged me to think more deeply about every scene. I found myself agreeing with far more of her suggestions than I expected, and even when I ultimately chose a d...

Eric was patient and very professional when working with me, an inexperienced author. My transcript needed more work than he had guessed but he took it all in stride, meticulously checking my references and providing much needed guidance. I am forever grateful to have found him.

This is my second time working with Harrold-Vincent Villanueva and couldn't be happier with the work he did, both times. I constantly get praise over the covers he's done for me, which I don't think I need to tell you is invaluable for an author. As much as the old saying gets tossed around, people can and do judge a book by its cover. Not only is he a talented, hardworking artist, but you can really tell he cares about the covers he puts out and the stories they're trying to tell. I'll b...

Need a proofreader? Ed helped me with my 2nd book. He was professional, effective, and timely. He answered my questions and did a fantastic job with the proofreading, catching all those nasty little things that like to slip through. He called out which things were standard and which were sort of optional. Then, he finished the whole thing 10 days early. Could not ask for better!

Lorna was extremely patient and helpful as she guided me through the process. She is a meticulous proofreader, did an amazing job.

Lisa is amazing and it was the easiest decision to have her do the cover for my second book after she did the first. Highly recommend!

Zoe was fantastic to work with! She was responsive, understanding, and so fast with changes! Not only did she finish on time, she completed the work a month early once she learned of some time constraints on my end. I cannot say enough good things...and I hope to use her again soon. :)

I absolutely loved working with Joanna, it is my first book and she was incredibly helpful guiding me through the process. Once I'm finished with the revisions I will be seeking her advice again as a Copyeditor. Highly recommend
