Samantha was amazing. Her feedback was clear, detailed, and constructive, and she was very responsive to questions. Her review greatly improved my query letter. Thank you again very much, Samantha!

I can't recommend Rebecca Roy highly enough for a developmental edit. What I've received has been exceptional and far more than what I even expected in such a short amount of time. There was nothing rushed about the edit I received - both on my script and an overarching in-depth document filled with nothing but suggestions and, more importantly, the reason behind the suggestions. Rebecca has also been available before, during and after, to discuss any of the suggested edits. Many I took on bo...

I cannot say enough good things about Yuliia and her team. The illustrations for my book were beyond anything I could have imagined. Yuliia is so kind, professional, and prompt with every response. The work was completed ahead of schedule on her end, and I truly will never go with anyone else again. I 100% recommend her!

James delivered a professional and meticulous copyedit with clear communication throughout. His attention to detail, consistency, and respect for the author’s voice were excellent, and the manuscript is stronger as a result. I would happily recommend him and work with him again.

Working with Victory on a partial manuscript review was an outstanding experience from start to finish. I approached Victory at a very early stage of the first draft of my novel, because I needed feedback on what was working and what wasn't so that I didn't back myself into a corner before I kept going. Victory was more than happy to meet me where I was. From our first conversation, she communicated clearly, set realistic expectations, and made sure she understood both my goals for the story ...

Shannon was such a joy to work with! She poured so much heart and creativity into my book, and her illustrations brought the story to life in ways I couldn’t have imagined. She was professional, communicative, and thoughtful throughout the entire process, which made everything feel smooth and fun. I especially appreciated how invested she was in the story itself—it truly felt like a collaboration. I’m so grateful for her talent and care, and I would absolutely work with her again!

As a first-time indie author, working with Tee was an absolute game-changer. Her feedback was instrumental in not only getting my manuscript on the right track but also in equipping me with guidance I can carry forward into future projects. She didn’t just provide editing notes, but she offered insights, tools, and explanations that deepened my understanding of the craft and the publishing process. Tee's keen eye for detail, supportive approach, and thorough understanding of industry standar...

Working with Cathy was an absolute pleasure. She brought sharp editorial instincts to every manuscript, catching inconsistencies we had overlooked while preserving the author's voice throughout. Her turnaround time impressed me, efficient without ever feeling rushed or superficial. What stood out most was her communication style: clear, constructive, and always solution-oriented. When she flagged an issue, she came with suggestions rather than just problems. I would recommend her without hesi...

I have really enjoyed working with Laura. The feedback I received was extremely detailed, insightful and constructive, while also being kind and encouraging. Her critique gave me a far clearer understanding of picture book structure and the editing process, as well as valuable direction on how to strengthen my current manuscript. Laura was incredibly responsive throughout the process, with fast replies, regular updates and thoughtful communication which made me feel very reassured as someone...

James has been incredible to work with. He is exceptionally talented, thoughtful, and easy to collaborate with. He made the experience of bringing my book to life both enjoyable and seamless, guiding me through every step of the process. His creative ideas exceeded my expectations, and he truly understood my vision and brought it to life with care and precision. I highly recommend James to any author looking for an illustrator who is both gifted and deeply supportive throughout the creative j...

Working with Lynn was a dream come true. My budget was minimal, yet Lynn was extremely gracious in working within it. It was one of the biggest blessings I’ve experienced on this project. Her kindness and thoughtfulness throughout our collaboration time speak volumes of the wonderful person she is. Not only was she very responsive, she also provided several options for me at various stages. The book cover she created truly exceeded my expectations and is gorgeous. Thank you, Lynn!

5 Stars - Outstanding Line Editor Rob MacGregor is exceptional. Working with him on my hard science fiction novel transformed the manuscript in ways I hadn't anticipated. His line editing goes above and beyond - he caught critical continuity issues, timeline inconsistencies, and character development gaps that would have seriously weakened the book. When he identified structural concerns, his suggestions were clear roadmaps to solutions, not just critiques. What distinguishes Rob is how he...

Beau is amazing! My story is only in the beginning phase and Beau has been able to provide me with so much feedback and insight. I’ve been able to talk through my plot and the story development and end up with more material to work with. My brain fog has been lifted thanks to Beau’s in-depth review and my excitement has been renewed just from hearing Beau’s interest and enthusiasm around the story. Can’t wait to collaborate with them again and I couldn’t recommend Beau enough.

This is my second time working with Harrold-Vincent Villanueva and couldn't be happier with the work he did, both times. I constantly get praise over the covers he's done for me, which I don't think I need to tell you is invaluable for an author. As much as the old saying gets tossed around, people can and do judge a book by its cover. Not only is he a talented, hardworking artist, but you can really tell he cares about the covers he puts out and the stories they're trying to tell. I'll b...

Katherine was the first editor I had ever worked with, and I’m happy with my decision. Katherine understood the vision I had for my story and provided suggestions to improve it while still keeping its essence. The comments throughout the manuscript were detailed (and sometimes fun to read!). The feedback made me eager to work on my story rather than feel overwhelmed. I would gladly work with Katherine again for future books:)
