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 am quite early on in the process of writing my first book. Lots of ideas. A couple of chapters and an outline. Cat gave great advice both and structured feedback that immediately helped me develop the ‘fuzzy’ parts and strengthen the parts already created. She kept in touch throughout. I really enjoyed the experience and will be back in touch with her in the future - I just need to get writing!

Jaime was extremely helpful, very professional and got the work done in the required time. I loved working with her, and it was really great experience to having my first editor ever look at something I wrote. She was very prompt, very nice and I seemed like we clicked from the start which was nice, it was like talking with a friend! She also has helped fine tune my manuscript and point out things I did not notice before which has helped my book become even better!

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...

Working with Kate was a fantastic experience. She provided clear, actionable, and immensely helpful developmental feedback. Her insights were indispensable in taking my project to the next level. I highly recommend her and would absolutely work with her again.

Working with Sarah-Beth was one of the best decisions I made in this publishing process. I came to her with a memoir that was deeply personal — years of life compressed into pages — and she handled it with care and professionalism from start to finish. What stood out most was her responsiveness. Every question I had, every file exchange, every revision — she turned things around quickly and kept the collaboration moving without me having to chase her down. That matters when you're self-publi...

I am a writer so it takes a lot for me to say I struggle to find the words to describe how over the moon I am with Baris's work on my book. During the journey of writing, sharing with editors and beta readers, no one has given me a more detailed and accurate response to my work. It was like he had known me for years. I felt like he just got it. My book is a bit dark, satirical, takes a humorous look at the serious topic of death, murder, the afterlife. It is not easy to explain or descri...

Lynne Walker is an exceptionally talented editor whose precision and insight elevated every page of my manuscript while preserving my voice. She completed an inline edit for me, and her comments were sharp, constructive, and always grounded in a deep understanding of tone and rhythm. Working with her was seamless. She’s professional, punctual, and consistently responsive. Every exchange reflected her care and commitment to excellence. Lynne brought not only skill but genuine respect f...

Laurel's developmental edit was one of the most insightful and valuable pieces of feedback I've ever received on my writing. She didn't simply identify strengths and weaknesses. She understood the heart of the story I was trying to tell, and with greater clarity than I had myself. Her editorial report was thoughtful, perceptive, and remarkably precise. She pinpointed exactly where the manuscript could be strengthened while preserving everything that made it unique. Every recommendation felt ...

Connor was very professional and helpful. Highly recommend him.

I had an amazing experience working with Jonathan. He went far beyond what I expected, not only delivering a thorough, high‑quality proofread, but also offering insightful notes throughout my entire manuscript. His feedback was thoughtful, clear, and genuinely helpful. He was incredibly responsive, kept me updated during the process, and even finished ahead of schedule. I couldn’t be happier with the result, and I can’t wait to work with him again. Highly recommended.

When I finished my book, I thought the hard part was over--until I started the self-publishing journey. Having Shawna as my editor definitely helped ease the anxiety and self-doubt that constantly attacked me as I figured out how to navigate through this overwhelming process. She took the time to understand me as an author, listened, responded timely, and always let me know what to expect next. She not only provided suggestions and constructive feedback on the content of my book but also prep...

Michael is the copilot you want for your book. He’s the Goose to your Maverick. What a wonderful companion to have in this incredibly vast space of editing. I believe him to be sincere and he took his time on the subject matter and heart of my story. There is a soul behind the words we write and Michael catches the essence with a grace and knowledge only few possess. Honestly time is the greatest gift you can give someone. Even if we pay for it, he didn’t hurry through my story. I really enjo...

Misha did a wonderful job with my manuscript. I know that details are the name of the game for a copy editor, but when working with something that's a high fantasy, Mysha did a wonderful job corralling my writing and catching the slips that I made. Going through her comments, it was reassuring to see everything that Mysha suggested tweaking and she often explained why she might keep something the same or change it, giving me a good learning experience as a writer for what I need to keep in mi...

I have LOVED working with Cat. As a complete newbie to the book publishing world, she has patiently guided me through the marketing process and came up with a fantastic marketing plan at a very good price. Her experience in the industry clearly shows in her work. I would highly recommend Cat to anyone looking for a book marketing pro.
