Working with Andie was one of the best investments I’ve made in this publishing journey. My manuscript is nearly 70,000 words, and they approached it with care, precision, and a sharp editorial eye from start to finish. Andie didn’t just correct grammar or spelling...they caught inconsistencies, improved sentence flow, and made thoughtful suggestions that tightened the work without ever diluting my voice. They have a rare talent for knowing when to preserve tone and when to push for clarity, ...

Tee is so thorough and kind in her feedback to writers. I felt like she valued my project as much as I did and gave excellent feedback for improving and making it stronger. It was a real joy to collaborate with her and I will definitely be hiring her again!

Abi is terrific! She understood what I was asking for from the start, and really delivered in a professional, responsive, and warm way. Her editorial assessment was clear, thoughtful and thorough, and our Zoom follow-up conversation gave me further direction and motivation. Before working with Abi, I felt like I was groping around in the dark, and now I feel confident about my next steps. I’m truly grateful for her insight and guidance.

Susan is the consummate professional; she communicates well, seeks to understand the author's intent and is an excellent editor. She has the rare ability to simplify and translate technical concepts, making them more accessible to readers. Highly recommended.

I decided to work with Lindsey for a full developmental edit of my historical fiction book and I could not be happier with her feedback and direction. She is a true professional and very experienced in the industry, while also a coach and mentor. She took a very thoughtful approach to giving feedback while also pointing out the major revision elements and providing examples that I know will help me take my book to the next level. While I've previously authored two guidebooks and went through ...

Jenna was a wonderful editor. Her suggestions were concrete and positive and they gave me so much to work with to make my book better. I met with her for a half hour about the first half of my book, and plan to meet again for another half hour about my second half. The notes were perceptive and useful. I am so glad I did this with her!

I had a great experience working with Joel on the illustrations for my middle grade chapter book. He was professional, easy to communicate with, and really thoughtful about bringing the characters and scenes to life. Joel did a fantastic job capturing the personality and tone of the story, and his illustrations added so much charm and fun to the book. He was also very open to feedback and quick to make adjustments whenever needed. I really appreciated how collaborative the whole process fel...

Megan was an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish. She demonstrated exceptional attention to detail, strong design judgment, and clear communication throughout the entire process. Deliverables were completed on time, exceeded expectations, and were thoughtfully executed across both cover and interior files. Her responsiveness and professionalism made the collaboration smooth and stress-free. I would highly recommend Megan to any author looking for high-quality, reliable design ...

As a first timer writing a full manuscript, I didn't actually know just how much help I needed with editing. I decided to collaborate with Carol after her no nonsense, professional, courteous and humorous nature. She has an absolute wealth of experience in writing and editing and guided me through every one of my chapters. She was patient throughout the process, explaining and giving brilliant examples of why she had or hadn't changed, tweaked or highlighted the manuscript. I now have somethi...

My new website looks great and performs all of the requirements I needed. Thanks Ioana!

Working with Sakshi was an incredible experience from start to finish. She is exceptionally talented, professional, and patient. Throughout the project, I made numerous requests and scope adjustments, and she handled every change with grace, flexibility, and a positive attitude. Her creativity brought my vision to life in ways I couldn’t have imagined, and she was consistently responsive, thoughtful, and detail-oriented. I truly felt supported through the entire process. I highly recommend ...

Lyndsey is amazing! I highly recommend her editorial assessment service and her line and copy edits. She is very happy to talk and answer questions if needed, and she will absolutely take your manuscript to the next level! She is also encouraging and complimentary when she gives her advice. I had a great time working with her on my fantasy manuscript.

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.

I have this story that I am sentimentally glued to and cannot let go of. It was reviewed, analyzed, changed formats, pacing, words, and then back again. And... was still not landing. So, in the "let's try this again" attempt, I reached out to Frances. Her approach was different. She went to the scaffolding, where she proposed the changes. It made sense. I sat with the story until I changed it based on Frances's suggestions. And now it flows. So I recognize in Frances a deeper kind of vision a...

I have sent Sam three children's stories to date. He makes each scene more lively and suggest ideas that I had never thought of. Sam makes editing a stress free process!
