Helen has done an absolutely outstanding job on my manuscript. Engaged Helen for copyedit and proofread. She really nailed down the the fantasy vocabulary I created and realised mistakes and inconsistencies in my own work. Really has elevated this to the next level. Will be using again and highly recommend.

Working with Cynthia has been an exceptional experience. She combined a sharp editorial eye with genuine care for my project. Her revisions made my manuscript feel more robust, polished, and true to my vision. She not only strengthened the structure and flow of the work but also provided clear, thoughtful guidance on formatting and consistency, which will make the final book much stronger. Cynthia is professional, detail-oriented, and supportive throughout the process. She balanced encourage...

Working with Nina has been such a positive and productive experirence. Her knowledge and professionalism was of great benefit for me. It's my first time going through a process such as this, and it's been quite productive and beneficial. I appreciate her partnership in this process and will not hesitate to engage with her again, should the need arise.

Lucia took care of my book! From the very beginning, she has been a standout. She loved what I wrote and didn't hesitate to extend her expertise right way. After getting my edits back, it was exactly what I was looking for. For a first time author, she helped with advice and small suggestions to better the story. Would absolutely hire her again.

S. C. did an excellent job as my Copy Editor. She read and understood my text and provided invaluable "fixes" to my manuscript! The work she gave me was always ahead of schedule, and she even finished the entire project early. She asked me great questions about specific parts of my manuscript and provided remarkable guidance on how to fix additional items. I HIGHLY recommend her for YOUR project!

Laurie Bernstein is an outstanding editor and professional in the publishing industry. Her credentials are beyond excellent, and she brings her authentic expertise to the work. She is meticulous, patient, and gracious. I handed her a manuscript that was riddled with errors and duplications. She sent me back a manuscript that provided clear directions for possible improvements, encouraged me to think deeply about my message and story, and to keep working toward excellence. Thanks to Laurie. I ...

I hired Paul to copyedit a 76,000-word literary memoir. He returned about 7,000 tracked changes and a separate document of fifteen substantive queries, and the second document is what earned this review. The process alone is worth knowing about. He locks the file for version control so the author never has to accept or reject anything — he handles that on his end, which saved me days of tedium. He pulls the judgment calls out of the redlining into their own list, quoting each passage above t...

Sasha was a dream to work with. She was extremely responsive to my requests and questions. Very timely and would love to work with her if and when I write another children's book.

Flawless work. Exceptional understanding. Grasped the message of my work and said it better than I could. Nothing but praise. This one is a keeper.

Working with Kim has been an incredible experience. As a first-time author, I truly appreciated her patience and guidance every step of the way. She is not only highly skilled but also very easy to work with, friendly, approachable, and genuinely supportive. Despite her impressive credentials and accomplishments, she creates such a comfortable and relaxed working environment. I never felt intimidated, instead, I felt encouraged and understood. Her edits were excellent, clear, thoughtful, an...

I cannot express enough that working with Lisa was the best decision I could have made for my father’s book. She brought precision, compassion, and true editorial mastery to every page. Lisa didn’t just edit the manuscript — she elevated it. She understood the heart of the story, protected my dad’s voice, and shaped the book into something I am deeply proud to publish. Her instincts were excellent, and she was spot-on with every detail. Her professionalism, communication, and genuine care ar...

Kristen was phenomenal to work with. She helped guide me through the process and never complained when I would ask additional questions. I look forward to working with her again.

As an ESL writer, I am so grateful to have had Val's support. She was incredibly sharp and right on point. Not only did she elevate my manuscript's prose, she also helped me spot my common mistakes. I've learned so much from her edits, and I highly recommend her to any writer—debut or seasoned!

Christina was a pleasure to work with: professional, responsive, and very easy to collaborate with. She brought a careful eye to the manuscript, helping refine the text, improve clarity, and ensure everything was clean and consistent while preserving my voice. Her feedback was clear and helpful throughout. Overall, a very positive experience.

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.
