Kirsiah was incredibly professional during our interactions before I hired her–when I was still quite indecisive–and once she'd completed her edits on my project. I really appreciated her measured approach. Her feedback on my manuscript clarified so much for me about what was working and what was not. I wouldn't hesitate for one second to send my material to Kirsiah again and hope I get to work with her in the future.

Mike was great to work with. He was able to take my kernel of an idea and create many different versions of book covers to choose from. He was always willing to bounce ideas and provided some interesting contrasts that I hadn't thought of, but loved. I am already receiving positive comments about his work. I look forward to working with him again in the future.

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...

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!

Working with Nuno and Rui has been such a gift. Nuno has this rare ability to instantly “get it” — my vision, my tone, even the things I couldn’t always articulate — and turn it into design that feels exactly right. His creative eye is unmatched, but what made the process even better was his patience, professionalism, and care at every step. Rui’s typesetting work was equally thoughtful and precise, bringing the words to life on the page in a way that feels seamless and intentional. Together...

Miriam was FANTASTIC. I appreciated her valubable detailed feedback and constructive criticism, and her availibility to answer questions so I could better understand the feedback. Highly recommended!

I cannot thank David enough for his editing and ghost writing skills. I truly believe he turned my memoir into a cinematic masterpiece in such a short amount of time.

This is my first novel and Patricia was amazing. Love her work and she is such a pleasure to work with! We completed our initial contract. However, we are collaborating on creating a back cover for this book. The work has been brought to life and I'm so excited. Highly reccommend!

Kate provided exceptional support in refining the second revision of my manuscript—a story I truly believe in but knew needed stronger description, narrative flow, and organization. She carefully reviewed my draft, offered insightful restructuring suggestions, and added beautifully descriptive scenes that enriched the storyline. Her communication was outstanding: prompt responses, engaging video conferences with live on-screen collaboration, and a clear, organized revision schedule. Kate was ...

Working with Vicki on the cover design of my book was an excellent experience. From the very beginning, she demonstrated a high level of professionalism and a deep understanding of graphic design. She quickly grasped the ideas and atmosphere I wanted the cover to convey and translated them into a visually striking result. Vicki was also extremely knowledgeable and offered thoughtful suggestions that improved the final design. Throughout the process she was responsive, organized, and very eas...

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.

Congratulations to Reedsy for including in its roster a professional with the excellence of Dr. Charles Davidson, at once a scholar, an experienced editor, and a distinguished author himself. This collaboration very much exceeded my expectations. Without ever condescending, Dr. Davidson read my offering, listened to my needs and hopes, and fashioned a comprehensive response that answered my questions and provided the specific feedback that I had requested. Some editors slow down a project wit...

Edyta is a talented artist and created a whimsical and wonderful illustration for a project I'm working on. Excited to work with her again!

Nina is an incredible editor. She goes above and beyond to make sure she knows exactly who you are as a writer and what goals you set out to achieve— to the extent that I can believe she is as invested in my story as I am. Feedback is clearly designed to help you achieve, and each critique well justified. Nina has a clear extensive knowledge of the literary industry, and will be honest about where your writing stands in the market. Her work is delivered in a timely manner. As a new writer, I ...

Working with Nicola has been an absolutely fantastic experience from start to finish. Her creativity, talent, and attention to detail brought my story to life in a way I could only have dreamed of. Every illustration perfectly captured the characters, emotions, and magical moments within the book, adding so much charm and personality to each page. Nicola was professional, communicative, and genuinely passionate about creating something special. As a first-time author, seeing my words transfor...
