Marta was absolutely amazing. Incredible editor, went above and beyond what I could have hoped for.

Worth every penny! From the start Barbara was head and shoulders above the other offers. For my editorial analysis Barbara gave me an overall assessment of what was working and what could be improved. Then she did the same for each chapter. Other bids were cheaper, but their promised output was much less - at 61 pages, Barbara's price per page of analysis was way less expensive. I highly recommend Barbara.

I am a psychologist, and I was very particular in using my intuition when reviewing editors' profiles to see who I thought would be a good fit. Catherine's profile led me to believe she personally invests in what she is doing, caring and motivated to give something to the world through her work. Catherine exceeded my hopes. My original content was strong, but too dense to keep readers engaged. She helped me streamline the book, maintaining it's essence and my voice while making it less taxing...

Entrusting my book to someone else felt like a deeply personal step, but Sam immediately put me at ease. He explained the process clearly and made everything feel manageable from the start. He was incredibly generous with his knowledge, offering guidance across different areas of the publishing and editing world, and consistently went above and beyond what I expected. His feedback was thorough and insightful. He even picked up on the smallest details I hadn't considered! The collaboration f...

Sakshi was a fantastic collaborator in bringing my project and vision to life. We went through several rounds of edits, and she consistently took constructive feedback with professionalism and care, delivering results that matched exactly what I had envisioned. I would gladly work with her again and highly recommend her to other authors.

Sue was an absolute dream to work, I'm grateful to have had her insight and professionalism to guide me on the editing of my book.

I had a wonderful experience working with Edyta on my children's picture book. She was professional, responsive, and a joy to collaborate with throughout the entire project. Edyta carefully considered my feedback, made revisions promptly, and brought the story to life with beautiful, warm, and engaging illustrations. She also created a polished and professional book design that exceeded my expectations. The cover is especially eye-catching and perfectly captures the spirit of the story. I...

Alejandro is a dark fantasy ace. My book cover had two different versions before I decided to invest in his services, and I only regret not having done this earlier. I left the concept and art direction up to Alejandro, providing minimal input, and the outcome was incredible. The previous covers were performing at around 40% of click-through average, and the new cover is already at 120%. Prompt responses, quick turnaround, and, most importantly, a passion + talent combo that exceeded my expe...

I came to her with a manuscript that was ambitious, contrarian, and structured in a very specific way. As an author, you often fear that an editor will try to flatten your voice or force your unique structure into a standard box. Kimberley did the exact opposite: she entered my world completely. From day one, she treated the project not just as a job, but as a partnership. She took the time to deeply understand the "heartbeat" of the book—why certain sections needed to be contemplative and o...

This was my third time working with Eleanor, and it was the third book in a series. She remembered details from books one and two, and did an amazing job of making sure that the third book aligned with each. Her suggestions are always spot-on, and I appreciate her attention to detail. I would definitely work with her again!

Hunter vastly exceeded what I actually expected he would do. His input was comprehensive, detailed and made the book significantly stronger than it would have been otherwise. He was very quick to communicate and happy to answer any questions, no matter how dumb they might have sounded.

Laura's feedback definitely exceeded my expectations; it was a good critical mix that I can really see and understand what I need to do to make my story better. I would work with her again :)

Where can I begin? Conni has helped me truly transform my writing and my book. When we began collaborating, I had about 3 chapters written and the structure figured out, but once I started working with Conni, my book was elevated. She helped me (and pushed me because I was a bit unsure) to create more structure and predictability to the book and chapters. I went from "I don't want to spoon-feed my readers" to thinking "well I do have to explain it because they can't read my mind." The structu...

Lauren was excellent to work with throughout this project. She was highly responsive, thorough, and consistently delivered work of a very high standard. As well as providing a detailed proofread, she often went beyond what was asked by spotting issues, making thoughtful suggestions, and helping improve the overall quality of the manuscript. Communication was clear and professional throughout, deadlines were met, and I always felt the project was in safe hands. I would happily work with Lau...

Working with Rennie was one of the best decisions I made during the publishing process. As a first-time author, I quickly learned that editing is about much more than grammar, punctuation, and style. It requires someone who can strengthen a manuscript while protecting the author's voice. Rennie did exactly that. Her editorial feedback was thoughtful, thorough, and insightful. She challenged me where the manuscript needed strengthening, encouraged me where it was working, and always approach...
