I spent a lot of time choosing a designer and I was STILL incredibly impressed. Baris is highly professional and talented and I will be asking him to design more of my covers in the future!

This was my third time working with Eleanor, and it was the third book in a series. She remembered details from books one and two, and did an amazing job of making sure that the third book aligned with each. Her suggestions are always spot-on, and I appreciate her attention to detail. I would definitely work with her again!

Working with Eva has been outstanding. Her feedback is precise, insightful, and always grounded in a deeply invested and intelligent understanding of the manuscript. She brings clarity to structure, tone, and theme, and her guidance has consistently elevated my work. Professional, reliable, and genuinely inspiring—an excellent editor of very high caliber, and craft. I highly recommend.

Danielle was wonderful to work with! Her edit letter and in-document comments were extremely thorough and helpful, and her feedback was delivered in such a kind, professional and gentle manner. Danielle's unbiased/neutral perspective was exactly what I needed to refine my manuscript. Thanks Danielle!

What a wonderful experience. Jenna was really helpful in getting my query letter and elements of my Synopsis ready for prime time. I will work with her on any project in the future.

Absolutely amazing and truly doesn’t miss a thing. Her review was incredibly thorough yet concise, with clear examples and practical suggestions that made the feedback invaluable. Additionally, she was willing to work around my budget, for which I could not be more grateful.

Sarah is the platonic ideal of an editor. As a writer, it can be difficult to navigate feedback while trying to stay true to your ~artistic vision~. The beauty of Sarah's editing work is that it is so in-depth you can just feel she is giving her all to trying to understand what the book is trying to do and being completely honest (in the kindest way) about what it needs to get there. You can also feel a big, beating heart at the center of her feedback: her love for books and good storytelling...

Kelly was a dream come true. Professional, thorough, and thoughtful. She made my voice stronger and clearer, and I also learned a lot working with her. Hiring a stranger feels like a bit of a gamble, but Kelly was a win and exceeded every expectation. I’m impressed by her effort and care and would work with her again in a heartbeat.

My experience with Dan was exceptional and outstanding in every way. He helped me transform my rough manuscript into a much more polished, coherent and commercial product. His insights and comments were very helpful and productive. He knows how a story should be told and his organizational and formatting skills are readily apparent. He is able to develop a great working relationship that is very collaborative and his communication skills are highly developed. I couldn't be more satisfied with...

Paul was an absolute pleasure to work with and exceeded my expectations in every way. As a first-time author and first-time Reedsy user, I really appreciated how responsive, thorough, and helpful he was throughout the entire process. He provided thoughtful feedback that truly elevated my book in ways I could not have accomplished on my own, while also making the entire editing process feel manageable and collaborative. He was worth every penny—and then some! His rates were incredibly reasona...

Lee was a pleasure to work with and did an incredible job on my book. This wasn’t a straightforward project… it’s a book-style journal with a lot of moving parts, interactive elements, and a very specific vision I wanted to bring to life. Somehow, he managed to pull it all together seamlessly. The formatting, layout, and illustrations are spot on, and he made the whole thing flow in a way that looks effortless. On top of that, the cover design nailed the vision I had in my head. I came into...

Annemarie was amazing for both the cover design and the formatting, working hard and always being available with all my questions and requests. I can't recommend her more highly, and will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future.

Working with Allan was one of the best decisions I made for my book. I came to him with a vision, a lot of ideas, and a manuscript that meant a great deal to me. He listened to what I was trying to accomplish and then took it in a creative direction beyond my expectations. He didn't just design the interior of Design Schooled - he elevated it. Allan is exceptionally talented, responsive, and always delivered on time. Throughout the process, I felt completely confident that my project was in...

Jennifer C. is a complete professional. I worked with her for developmental editing on my manuscript, and I don't know how the experience could have been better. She guided me through the entire process, communicated promptly, and made everything feel straightforward from start to finish. Even after delivering her edits, she reached out to let me know about a brief period when she'd be unavailable, just in case I had any questions. Jennifer provides exactly what every person who takes their ...

Working with Shannon was an absolute joy and worth every penny! She clearly spent so much time going through my draft, thinking about what could be improved and trying to understand what I was going for. At the point I started working with her, I was really struggling with my book. I felt passionate about it conceptually but it wasn't working and I was so lost. I gave her a too-short, very unfinished draft and she sent me back the most thoughtful editorial letter and edits. She was able to ...
