Richard is brilliant! I came to him with a project that I felt wasn't working, but I couldn't really articulate what I thought was problematic. Richard's editorial input was amazing -- he had great analytical insights and clarified for me what the underlying issues were. And he provided such helpful thoughts about how to go forward. I came to him feeling so disheartened about this book, not knowing what to do, and now I'm completely energized and have a very clear vision of where I need to go...

Working with Andy was an exceptional experience from start to finish. From our first Zoom call, he took the time to truly understand the scope of my project while patiently answering all of my questions. His communication throughout the entire process was outstanding. It was always prompt, clear, and professional. I never felt unsure about where things stood, which made the entire experience smooth and stress-free. Andy is not only highly skilled at what he does, but he also brings a level ...

Gary has been an incredible editor. I've had the pleasure to work with him several times now, and his punctual, professional and pointed edits have assisted greatly in my work. He's given great notes on what to trim down and what to add further detail and description to. I'm fairly new at this, but can safely say that I've seen my work grow in depth and sophistication since working with Gary and would wholeheartedly recommend his services for any project.

Megan was a delight to work with, making the entire design process simple and painless. My book looks fantastic, and I'm very pleased with the results! Megan provided excellent communication, and her turnaround time on everything, including changes, was speedy. Highly recommend her!!

I cannot express how much I enjoyed working with Nate throughout the entire process of bringing my first book into fruition. From the get go, it was 100% clear that Nate read my book thoroughly, and really understood the intention of my book. Nate then put what was essentially in my brain onto the pages without me having to be overly explanatory about what I was trying to depict through the illustrations, which was greatly appreciated. Through his beautiful illustrations and book design, he t...

Working with Lorna was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. She brought a warm, encouraging energy to the entire process. Her proofreading was meticulous and thorough — she caught everything — but what truly set her apart was how she communicated. She was prompt, kind, and a genuine delight to work with. I never felt like just another project; I felt supported. If you're looking for a proofreader who combines sharp eyes with a wonderful collaborative spirit, Lorna is your person. I woul...

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...

Elena is a PR genius! She completely transformed our outreach and put together a stunning PR kit that captured our brand perfectly. Working with her was seamless, effective, and honestly, amazing. She is the absolute best at what she does. Her outreach strategy was precise, thoughtful, and yielded fantastic results. Her professionalism, creativity, and genuine passion for her work are unparalleled. If you have the chance to hire Elena, take it—she is simply the best!

i thought i had written a workable book. Michelle's editing highlighted where I was wrong. Thoroughly professional, a great piece of editing. Had helpful suggestions to complete the work.

Lee delivered several beautiful cover concepts on the first try, which made choosing between them the hardest part. I am absolutely delighted with the final design—it’s stunning. The cover perfectly captures the tone of my book while also reflecting my personality as an author. Lee was professional, creative, and a pleasure to work with. I would gladly hire him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a talented cover designer.

I had the pleasure of working with Rosie on my children’s picture book, and I couldn’t have asked for a better editor. She not only respected the heart of my story, but helped it shine with a smoother rhythm and clearer structure. Her edits were thoughtful and precise, and her comments always kind and encouraging. Rosie’s insight brought a new level of depth and charm to the text, and I’m truly grateful for her involvement. Highly recommended to any author who wants their story to grow in the...

Chiara was great and listened to what I wanted. She was responsive and finished work on time. I enjoyed working with her!

Agatha’s dev edit on Unbidden is the kind of work that makes you feel both seen as a writer and capable as a craftsperson. She read my manuscript like a reader and then diagnosed it like an editor, with total command of narrative mechanics (pacing, viewpoint discipline, structure), plus a sharp instinct for what my story is really about: the terrifying intimacy of being “used” by something bigger than you. Her notes are deeply specific, actionable, and cross-referenced in a way that makes rev...

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 ...

I am extremely pleased with Sandra's developmental edit of my thriller, "Chasing the Bangkok Dragon." First, she provided an overall assessment, key elements that I need to fix/improve, and an analysis of each of the main characters. All of it was very insightful and actionable. Sandra also supplied chapter by chapter comments which included a few that rated "really good chapter...solid and well done." For most of them, however, she gave a very cogent analysis of the strengths and weaknesses ...
