I am incredibly grateful to Dave for his deep involvement in the creative process; it is truly the best experience an emerging author could hope for. All his feedback was given in an exceptionally respectful and constructive manner. He highlighted the manuscript’s strengths, which was vital for maintaining motivation during the early stages. Dave wasn't intimidated by the complexity of a multi-layered, hybrid-genre story. He didn't try to simplify the narrative or force it to appeal to a mas...

Amanda's work was incredible and invaluable to the completion of my manuscript. She was professional, efficient and an excellent communicator. Without a doubt the best editor I have ever collaborated with!

Daniel was collaborative, professional and communicated wonderfully during the entire process. His illustration work went well above my expectations as I wasn't sure what to expect being this was my first time. I highly recommend his work and was beautiful to see how your characters come to life. I would work with Daniel again, no questions asked. I will definitely be back.

I cannot express how much I enjoyed working with Nate throughout the entire process of bringing my first book into fruition. From the get go, it was 100% clear that Nate read my book thoroughly, and really understood the intention of my book. Nate then put what was essentially in my brain onto the pages without me having to be overly explanatory about what I was trying to depict through the illustrations, which was greatly appreciated. Through his beautiful illustrations and book design, he t...

Sharing your work for critique and editing is a challenging step in the writing journey. You hope your editor likes your work, but you also need them to be comfortable and honest, so their guidance can truly help you improve. I did not just gain an editor with Steph, I gained a friend for life and a Literary Sherpa who held my hand through the whole process. She talked me off the ledge more times than she would probably like to admit, gave me a swift kick in the butt when I got down on my...

Deborah did an amazing job proofreading my middle grade fantasy novel! She caught things that went unnoticed during previous revisions, explained why she was correcting what she did with references, and delivered on time. Her constructive feedback has not only made my book better, but I feel like a better writer for it!

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 ...

It was a joy to work with Evelina. She is a gifted designer, highly professional, and very responsive to my ideas. This is the ideal design partnership, where we speak the same language and can communicate a shared vision. However, it's then that the designer, Evelina, takes it to the next level, delighting and surprising. My book is a business book about the intersection of AI and Neurodiversity. As such, it's not a light read, but Evelina's design has ensured it is contemporary, elegant, an...

Working with Charles has been a meaningful part of my writing journey. He is much more than an editor—he genuinely cares about the people he works with and invests in them as writers. Throughout the process, Charles offered thoughtful recommendations, encouragement, and resources that challenged me to grow. Rather than simply correcting a manuscript, he helped me think more intentionally about storytelling, craft, and how to strengthen my writing. His feedback has given me tools I’ll continu...

I’ve worked with Jenny more than once, and I would absolutely hire her again. While I brought her on primarily as a proofreader, her contribution went well beyond catching grammatical or technical issues. She has a sharp eye for context, phrasing, and flow, and she offered thoughtful, well-reasoned suggestions that improved clarity without ever trying to reshape my voice or intent. What I especially appreciated is that her feedback was never prescriptive. She flagged areas that gave her paus...

I used David for a developmental edit, and the feedback he produced was fantastic. He identified numerous issues I was already aware of, but also highlighted others I hadn’t been able to spot myself. I knew my draft wasn’t where I wanted it to be, but I couldn’t pinpoint why. David summarised the problems brilliantly and provided a clear structure I can use to polish my manuscript to a professional level. His feedback was extensive, fair, and constructive, never nitpicking. I would strongly r...

Nyco was super easy to work with, very fast and responsive. He really brought my vision to life, and I'm so excited to use the artwork. Would definitely recommend and work with him again.

Megan created a cover that presents the suspense of my novel in a unique way, while also capturing a secret of the story. Megan is such a great communicator and I was never left wondering where we were in the project. I was proud to include her name as the designer of my cover in my published novel.

This was my first novel, and I wanted an editor who could handle copy editing, line editing, and proofreading with efficiency, professionalism, and a sharp eye—someone who wouldn’t hesitate to mark up my manuscript. I found exactly that in Jenny. She was always available, clear in her communication, and incredibly generous with her knowledge. Throughout the process, she explained not only her editing choices but also broader writing principles, so I came away a better writer with every rou...

It was an absolute pleasure to work with Charlie on the cover for my fantasy book. Not only is he a skilled professional, he's also a warm, friendly person to work with. As part of his process, he first read the full manuscript, allowing him to gain a thorough understanding of the characters, story, and world. As such, he was able to execute a masterful design that portrayed everything I had dreamed of and more. The result, ironically, put me at a loss of words. Furthermore, in the final phas...
