​I cannot recommend Robin Fuller highly enough. Working with her to edit my debut historical fiction novel was an incredible experience from start to finish. From the beginning, Robin was professional, insightful, and supportive, which completely eased my nerves about the editing process. ​Robin’s work goes far beyond simple proofreading; she is a master of her craft who truly cares about the narrative. Her copy edit was thorough and sharp. She even caught nuanced historical inconsistencies t...

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 ...

James is a fantastic editor. He did a developmental edit of my first novel, helping me develop and build confidence in my writing skills. He was incredibly responsive, professional, and meticulous in his attention to the logic and resonance of every sentence, while also keeping me focused on the overarching structure and tone of the story. I feel so lucky to have had a chance to work with him and would do it again in a heartbeat.

Barbara was fantastic to work with on the copy edit for my book. Her turnaround time was excellent, and she consistently asked thoughtful questions that pushed the manuscript to be clearer and stronger. Communication throughout the project was easy and responsive, and I always knew where things stood. Highly recommend her for anyone looking for a sharp, attentive copy editor.

It was a pleasure to work with him. He gave some really sound advice, and I would recommend any author trying to get an agent, should go to him and get some help with the query letter. I've already had one bite so the proof is in the pudding! Thanks again, Matt!

I have been a professional freelance writer for more than 30 years, so I have high expectations. I understand how to win business and deliver results. Cindy provided A++ service. She was professional and responsive, met the deadlines (delivering early in one instance) and I valued her input and corrections. I also appreciated that she sent a preliminary edit on my 2K word quote submission (without me asking for it) so I could get a sense of how she'd approach the job. No one else was willing ...

Dora was absolutely wonderful throughout the entire process and even offered support afterward for formatting edits. Her work is incredible and I'm so happy with the final product. Collaborating with her was a breeze and she truly brought my vision to life. Communication was great and constant throughout. She kept me up to date throughout the entire process. It was amazing to be able to bounce ideas and different visuals back and forth. I highly recommend Dora!!

Shanika is an amazing editor!! She's bright and kind. Her editorial letter was incredibly helpful and paired with her comments on the manuscript itself helped me take my novel to the next level. I highly recommend her!

Working with Molly as my developmental editor was the BEST thing I could have possibly done for my book. Her feedback was a game-changer. She has a rare talent for seeing both the big picture AND providing surgical insights that, together, were the secret sauce to elevate my messy manuscript into the book it deserved to be. She was also lovely to work with: warm but honest. Even her harshest notes always felt infused with her genuine belief in the story. I am so grateful for Molly's partnersh...

Jack was an absolute joy to work with and I can't wait to commission him again for additional work! He completely "got" my project--and asked very in-depth questions at the start to make sure he knew my vision. Every sketch was a joy to review and I can honestly say: he nailed each one the first time! His work is bold, inventive, colorful, and has a life all to it's own. One of his works received 23,467 views (to date) on my Instagram page! I couldn't be happier. Thanks, Jack!

Working with Charlie on the design of my book has been such a great experience. He really understood the feeling and identity I wanted the book to have and helped turn it into something polished, beautiful, and cohesive. He has a very strong eye for detail, and throughout the process he was thoughtful, patient, receptive to feedback, and genuinely committed to getting everything right. I especially appreciated how carefully he considered the overall look and feel of the book, making sure the...

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.

Joel is an excellent artist and consummate professional. His quote clearly outlined exactly what he would provide for the agreed upon price and he fully delivered. Even after the fact, Joel continues to provide support and is going to help with with the cover uploads to KDP and IngramSpark. I will be working with Joel again in the future. If you are looking for a cover artist, I highly recommend him!

Such a positive experience working with Jonathan - highly recommend. Very easy to chat with and he had such thoughtful insights and suggestions. Would definitely work with again - thanks so much!

Robin is a wildly talented copyeditor. The level of detail and care in her work was outstanding and I could tell she really put a lot of time and effort into the edits. She did an amazing job at keeping my voice in the writing, even giving character-specific suggestions for edits, while still making sure it flowed well. Going through the edits felt like I was seeing my book go from being a manuscript to a novel. I would highly recommend her and will definitely be using her services again.
