Seth was truly amazing to work with. He took the time to understand our project goals and what we wanted to accomplish. From the initial discussions and outlining to the completed book, Seth was collaborative, responsive, and delivered a high-quality children's book on time. I recommend collaborating with Seth on your project!

Robin is a fantastic editor. Full stop. Her professionalism, responsiveness, and incredible willingness to help above and beyond her extensive and detailed copy edit are reason enough to choose her as your editor, but if for some reason it isn't, then here's some more reasons she's at the top of my list of editors on every single project I work on from this point on: Robin brings experience to the table that will make your manuscript shine. She will help every word flow together as beautiful...

Working with Philip was an exceptional experience, particularly for a first-time author. His attentive listening and clear, effective communication made the entire process not only seamless but also truly enjoyable. Philip's genuine enthusiasm for the book and its characters was evident throughout our collaboration, bringing a refreshing energy to the project. His passion and dedication elevated the work, making it a pleasure to collaborate with him. I eagerly look forward to the opportunit...

Working with Ms. Dosier was not just about fixing grammar or typos — it was a turning point in how I think as a writer. She made me see my own work from a reader’s perspective, and that changed everything. One of the things I’ll always be grateful for is how she truly saw my characters. To me, that meant she didn’t just read my book because she was paid to — she connected with it. On some level, whether I know it or not, she could have enjoyed my story, and that means more than I can put in...

I wanted a cover that depicted a specific scene from my science fiction novel, like an old mass market paperback. I knew a generic cover wouldn't cut it. I needed an artist, not just a designer. And with Alex, I got an artist. I sent him descriptions of the "shot", the characters, the setting. So much detail I was worried about information overload. Alex calmly took it all in, sorted it out, thought about it for a while, sent some sketches, we talked, he sent some more. And after a little mor...

I’ve had so much fun collaborating with Kristen. Not only has she championed my novel as if it were her own, she’s also gone above and beyond to ensure it’s in the best possible shape for publication. Her feedback has been super helpful, and I’m already looking forward to working with her again in the future :) I’d definitely recommend her to any author looking for someone who approaches their book with passion, care and professionalism.

Louise was an excellent proofreader and a pleasure to work with. She brought a sharp eye for detail, strong consistency across a complex fantasy–science fiction manuscript, and a clear respect for the author’s voice and world-building. She handled continuity, formatting questions, and stylistic consistency with care, and her communication was timely, thoughtful, and professional throughout the process. When she raised questions, they were always precise and helpful, and she never imposed cha...

Sophie was an absolute joy to work with. She was very adept at seeing where my story could be clearer and what was working and what wasn't. I really enjoyed refining my writing by using Sophie's suggestions. She was able to see some traps I had fallen into through using basic language and where the storyline and plot could make more sense. I would definitely use Sophie again, she is kind, professional and thorough.

It's been an honour working with Paul on my book series. Top class illustrations, super professional work ethic, and always thinking ahead. Highly recommended!

Robin's written advice about marketing my upcoming trilogy is proving very helpful, providing at the lowest level an exhaustive (potentially exhausting!) set of actions and resources that I can use to help my books gain traction. I am finding her advice about my web page and blog to be particularly on point for the current phase of my pre-publication activities. Robin's tips and pointers about advertising will repay close study later, I think, once the books are launched. In all, I think our...

Svitlana is an extraordinary cover artist and designer. She understood the heart of my book from the very beginning and translated it into visuals that felt powerful, intentional, and deeply aligned with my story. Her communication was clear, her process was thoughtful, and her talent is undeniable. I felt supported, seen, and creatively understood every step of the way. I’m genuinely grateful for her work and would trust her with any future project.

Heather is truly a manuscript Goddess. She's been elevating novels for a long time and it shows in her work. Her natural insight for character development and story trajectory is on point. She provides a chapter by chapter analysis that you can use as a guide to your manuscript. It was extremely helpful to know exactly which chapters heighten the novel and what's missing/needed from other chapters. My manuscript will take a huge leap forward because of her talent and grace. Thank you to Reeds...

Working with Constance was a genuinely rewarding experience. Her editorial approach is thoughtful, intelligent, and deeply attentive to the inner life of the story, not just its surface mechanics. She reads like a serious reader first and an editor second, which makes her feedback feel purposeful rather than procedural. What I especially appreciated was her ability to ask the right questions — the kind that help you make conscious, authorial decisions rather than simply apply fixes. Even in ...

Talin is a top-tier editor. Her observations went beyond techniques or trends, addressing the voice development in my drafts—five stars.

An absolute awesome partner and worked diligently to turn this project around on a tight timeline.
