Jaime was great! She is easy to work with and responds quickly. She made sure to follow up with me ahead of the date the work was supposed to start to see if I had any questions and confirm the timeline. Her edits are thoughtful and professional. She truly wants to see her client's books succeed and even took the time to review my book blurb and second epilogue, which I didn't finish until later on. I would definitely recommend her as an editor.

Not only did Chris make some recommendations and tweaks that helped me paint a better picture of my story, he answered some additional questions related to the writing process. Including the next steps to take if I want to turn my story into something more. Good energy, great feedback, and really great work all around!

Melissa was very prompt and professional throughout the process. She provided a clear outline of the type of work she'd be doing and made it clear she was available for questions throughout. Her work was detailed and thorough; she even made a few remarks on story issues that went above and beyond the scope of the project. Would highly recommend!

Chris is the best! I've worked with him several times now and had a great experience every time. Always prompt and professional with great insights.

Izabela is amazing! She quickly understood my vision and delivered a beautiful, professional design that elevated the entire book. The cover is beautiful, the interior layout is clean and polished, and communication throughout the project was smooth and timely. I’m thrilled with the results and I would go to her for anything I need on future projects. Highly recommend working with her!

Working with Cynthia has been one of the most rewarding parts of my writing journey. She brought clarity, precision, and genuine insight to every stage of the edit. Her developmental feedback strengthened the structure and emotional core of my story, and her line edits elevated the prose in ways I could feel immediately. She has an incredible gift for seeing both the big-picture narrative and the fine-grained details that make a scene sing. What impressed me most was her ability to understan...

Wendy's assessment of my novel was insightful and professional, providing critical and constructive feedback that allowed me to better examine not only the work itself but opportunities to build further storied from the material. Her notes were incredibly thorough, covering all aspects of the manuscript from character development to even the smallest inconsistencies in continuity, which she meticulously detailed right down to page numbers. Honest and encouraging, I highly recommend Wendy Lee ...

I absolutely loved working with Andrew on my project. His feedback, review, and suggestions were all dead on the things that I had not even noticed. He was concise. He had explained everything thoroughly giving me the bigger picture of why his suggestions and or feedback would improve a section or chapter in my novel. I highly recommend Andrew and his professionalism and hope to be able to use him again in my next project.

My experience with Scott exceeded every expectation. After implementing his edits, I submitted my manuscript to literary agents, and several requested the full manuscript. I highly recommend his editing services and would gladly work with him again.

Ashley was fantastic to work with for my developmental edit! He was extremely helpful and professional, was prompt with returning messages and with completing his work. He provided great advice, clarification and outside-the-box ideas to help make my manuscript MUCH tighter and cleaner in the end. I would absolutely work with him again in the future!

Working with Maria Scala is the best decision I've made as an author. Over the past six months, Maria has guided me through developmental editing, line editing, and proofreading across three separate projects. By the end of this journey, I think she knew my memoir better than me! Maria challenged me when I needed it, encouraged me when self-doubt crept in, and helped shape a deeply personal story with expertise, professionalism, skill, and compassion. Her edits always elevated the manuscr...

Working with Michael has been an incredible experience from start to finish. His editorial insight is sharp, thoughtful, and deeply attuned to both the heart of the story and the clarity of the writing. He has a rare ability to elevate ideas without ever overshadowing the author’s voice, and his feedback consistently brings out the strongest, most polished version of the work. What I appreciate most is his balance of professionalism and genuine enthusiasm. He celebrates the wins, guides the ...

Savannah was professional, very communicative, efficient and understanding. It was clear she read my manuscript thoroughly and carefully. Her report was brimming with great suggestions and examples of modifications it would be well to make. She was kind, first telling me what worked and thoughtfully even giving me a plan on how to procede. Great value! Great experience! Will use her again.

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!!

Working with Becky Wallace has been one of the greatest privileges of my journey as an author. Becky has masterfully edited the last three books in my series, and her work has elevated every aspect of my writing. She possesses a rare combination of sharp editorial precision, deep storytelling insight, and genuine respect for an author’s voice. Becky expertise isn't limited to correcting grammar or restructuring sentences, she will strengthen the heart of your story. Her edits consistently sh...
