I had the pleasure of working with Ed on my children’s STEM book, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Ed designed and led the illustration effort from start to finish, while always making sure my vision was front and center. The final illustrations are vibrant, engaging, and exactly what I envisioned for young readers. I’d highly recommend Ed to anyone looking for an illustrator who can lead a project with professionalism and deliver exceptional work. In fact, I’m already working...

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Review for Evelina Garliauskiene — The Genius Behind OBSESSED Working with Eva was nothing short of extraordinary. She didn’t just design my book — she brought it to life. OBSESSED was never meant to be another leadership book. It’s a manifesto, a movement, a declaration of war against mediocrity — and Eva captured that energy perfectly. Every page, every font, every spacing choice felt intentional, bold, and alive. She pushed creative boundaries with me — from the right-edge pa...

Jordan was excellent to work with, and often went over the top to deliver the highest quality work. His style is amazing, but more than that, he worked hard to understand my story and match the art with the book's genre and themes. We tweaked details and went through multiple examples almost every step along the way, and I had a lot of fun seeing the progress. Jordan has a real eye for detail and balance, providing a professional quality to the cover that is so impressive. Not only did Jordan...

I find it ironic that I'm at a loss for words about the person who brings out the best in mine. The truth is, I’ve been putting this off for weeks because I wanted my review of Vicky to do for her what she does for me; and that's shine. Her editing skills are only a fraction of the value she has added to my project. Through Vicky's guidance and honest feedback, every round of revisions has consistently produced stronger work. She effortlessly understood the tone and vision for my story and of...

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...

Working with Bo has been an exceptional experience from start to finish. He brought professionalism, care, patience, and deep editorial skill to my book, The Art of Cash Flow: Her Journey in Treasury, Resilience, and Financial Transformation. As a first-time author, I needed not only editorial support but also guidance, reassurance, and a steady hand through the final stages of preparing the manuscript for publication. Bo provided all of this with great dedication. He helped shape the manusc...

I loved working with Victoria. Collaborating with her was a blast. She absolutely "got" my vision for the project, and everyone who has seen the cover has been blown away. I would absolutely hire her again.

I have worked with Sophia on three novel projects now, and I have been blown away by her insightful, compassionate feedback each time. Working with other editors, I have sometimes found their comments overwhelming in scope and number, but Sophia's feedback is well-organized and digestible. She also is encouraging, mentioning both what's working well and what could be improved. Best of all, I think, she identifies what the project IS, not what it might be if someone else had written it, and fo...

Lisa Kaitz is, without question, the finest editor I have worked with—and I say that having collaborated with more than ten editors across multiple books. She is exceptionally focused, remarkably attentive to even the smallest details, and consistently thoughtful in her editorial judgment. Like all truly great editors, Lisa is loyal first and foremost to the reader. She challenged me when necessary, strengthened the narrative at every level, and worked tirelessly to help me produce the strong...

I had the pleasure of working with Luca on both my book cover and interior design for my first book, and the experience exceeded expectations. As a first-time author, I needed someone with patient and knowledge to guide me through the design process, and Luca was exactly that. His communication was excellent throughout the engagement as he took the time to understand my visions, shared thoughtful feedback, and provided clear guidance every step of the way. Luca's technical expertise with fo...

Michelle did a fantastic job with my book in not only editing but teaching me a lot about citations and when and when not needed. She was very easy to communicate with and did a thorough job. I will definitely employ her again when I have the need for a sharp, and focused editor.

Steph has been incredible to work with. She has so much knowledge about the romance world, everything from plotting, pacing, and scene creation, she can do it all. Not only is her technical ability great, but her infectious personality is a delight to work with, she is extremely responsive and is able to untangle the mess of my brain into a publishable book. I would highly recommend her!

Working with Ed was absolutely fabulous, from the moodboard he sent me immediately with ideas for my cover to the three potential covers themselves and right along in the process until we picked a final cover and colors and he completed it. He is a consummate professional, totally responsive, and incredibly talented. I finally have the sort of cover I've been wanting for one of the books in my mystery series ever since I started writing them. The finished cover is so gorgeous that I can't sto...

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 selected Sebastian after interviewing several designers and conducting thorough research. From the very beginning, his credentials, portfolio, and thoughtful communication stood out and gave me the confidence that I was making the right choice. Throughout the process, that confidence only deepened. Sebastian designed the full visual identity of my book, including six original illustrations, five symbolic illustrations plus an additional detailed illustration, each of which was beautifully a...
