Working with Ed was absolutely fabulous, from the moodboard he sent me immediately with ideas for my cover to the three potential covers themselves and right along in the process until we picked a final cover and colors and he completed it. He is a consummate professional, totally responsive, and incredibly talented. I finally have the sort of cover I've been wanting for one of the books in my mystery series ever since I started writing them. The finished cover is so gorgeous that I can't sto...

Lauren has been a pleasure to work with so far. Her feedback on my dev edit was thorough, thoughtful, and actionable. I appreciate how she identified areas of improvement on a granular level, as well as thematically, for me to work on as a writer. It is a pleasure to have Lauren edit my manuscript, providing guidance for me through her extensive knowledge. She's incredibly easy to communicate with, open, and supportive. I look forward to continuing to work with her on this project and future ...

Elaini was wonderful to work with and very professional. She was sure to answer all of my questions in a timely fashion and her attention to detail made my project the best version it could be. I am very grateful. She finished early as well.

I cannot recommend Rachel highly enough. Once again, her structural edit was outstanding. I’ve worked with Rachel multiple times now, and that continuity makes such a difference—she knows my voice, my style, and the heart of my stories, and she edits in a way that enhances my voice rather than reshaping it. Her feedback is meticulous, thoughtful, and deeply insightful. Every suggestion strengthens the narrative, sharpens the emotional arc, and helps the story truly sing. Rachel has an incred...

Scott copyedited my 131,000-word science fiction novel, the first book in a planned series, and I could not have asked for a better experience. The mechanical work was flawless: spelling, punctuation, capitalization, and a comprehensive style sheet for my invented terminology that I’ll now use across the entire series. But what set Scott apart was everything beyond the commas. He tracked plot logic across 43 chapters, catching moments where a villain’s choices needed stronger motivation, wher...

Joy was amazing to work on. She gave me clear advice that's going to make my novel a lot better. She also completed the project early, and checked in with me multiple times during the process.

Dora was absolutely wonderful throughout the entire process and even offered support afterward for formatting edits. Her work is incredible and I'm so happy with the final product. Collaborating with her was a breeze and she truly brought my vision to life. Communication was great and constant throughout. She kept me up to date throughout the entire process. It was amazing to be able to bounce ideas and different visuals back and forth. I highly recommend Dora!!

I just spoke with Camille, and the experience was incredibly helpful. She provided thoughtful, insightful feedback and raised important points about my story that I hadn’t previously considered. Her perspective gave me a clearer understanding of areas that can be strengthened, and I’m genuinely excited to revisit my manuscript and make the necessary revisions. I’m also looking forward to working with Camille on refining my query once the edits are complete.

Barbara was amazing to work with! She made the process easy, her edits were extremely helpful and detailed, and she even completed the project ahead of schedule. Looking forward to the next project together!

S. C. did an excellent job as my Copy Editor. She read and understood my text and provided invaluable "fixes" to my manuscript! The work she gave me was always ahead of schedule, and she even finished the entire project early. She asked me great questions about specific parts of my manuscript and provided remarkable guidance on how to fix additional items. I HIGHLY recommend her for YOUR project!

Working with Kelly has been an extremely valuable experience. After months of writing and rewriting my manuscript, I had become too close to it to recognize repetition, structural weaknesses and patterns that were affecting the flow. Kelly was thoughtful, honest and constructive. She identified where the manuscript could be tightened and strengthened without trying to change my story or replace my voice. Acting on her notes has made a considerable difference, and I believe the manuscript i...

Mikola was wonderful to work with on my debut novel. As a French-Canadian writer working in my second language, I was a little nervous handing over my manuscript — but she took real care with it, cleaning up my English without ever losing my voice or my Quebecois flavor. She caught the little things a non-native speaker misses, and the book came back so much stronger, still completely mine. I'd recommend her to any writer, especially if English isn't your first language — she really gets it. ...

Gary is incredibly easy to work with, and his suggestions always leave me with "why didn't I think of that?" This is our second collaboration, and I can't imagine any of my future books without him. He works quickly and consistently delivers more than promised. I'm looking forward to working with him again soon.

Charlotte was an absolute joy to work with! From start to finish, she was incredibly timely, thoughtful, and thorough. We truly feel SO lucky to have found her. Her feedback was detailed, insightful, and incredibly valuable. You can tell how much care she puts into her work, and her expertise helped strengthen our manuscript in ways we hadn’t even considered. Throughout the entire process, we felt like our work was in such capable and caring hands. We honestly couldn’t have asked for a bett...

Working with Daniel was one of the best decisions I made during the production of my book. He went far beyond what I initially expected from a formatter and became an important creative partner in bringing the final book to life. The interior of the book turned out beautifully, and much of that is the result of Daniel’s exceptional eye for design. He selected a theme and visual direction that perfectly complemented the story and gave the book the polished, professional appearance I was hopin...
