Dr. Willoughby is both competent and courteous. We had good communication in the process and his editing notes were clear and insightful.

This was my second time working with Diego. I'd found a previous book cover designer here on Reedsy, and when she stopped working, I had to find a new one. Diego is incredible to work with, and his passion for creating distinct and original covers that still accurately display the book's genre is awesome to see. I'll continue to choose Diego for every subsequent project I have!

I can’t really put into words how grateful I am to have worked with Yuliia & her team. From the very beginning, she was prompt, professional, and incredibly attentive to my vision- but what truly amazed me was how she took that vision and elevated it far beyond what I could have imagined. The artwork is absolutely stunning, full of life, emotion, and detail. I felt completely included and updated throughout every step of the process, which made the entire experience feel collaborative and str...

Rich was the most kind and understanding person ever! Having him as my illustrator for my very first children's book was such a blessing. He is so patient, generous, and supportive and is STILL helping me through the self publishing process even though the collaboration date is technically done. I am a college student working multiple jobs while trying to make ends meet and he met me where I needed to make my dreams come true. God truly blessed me with a talented illustrator that I will cer...

At first I thought George was too good to be true, but he went above and beyond my expectations. I've worked on my debut novel for years. Draft after draft trying to get it to be the story I saw in my head. My beta readers all loved it, but said, "They wanted something more from the characters." I couldn't figure out what they were trying to tell me. Enter George, who put into words everything they meant and allowed me to have my "OHHHHHHH THAT'S IT!" moment. Then he did more. He treated my w...

Sarah is the platonic ideal of an editor. As a writer, it can be difficult to navigate feedback while trying to stay true to your ~artistic vision~. The beauty of Sarah's editing work is that it is so in-depth you can just feel she is giving her all to trying to understand what the book is trying to do and being completely honest (in the kindest way) about what it needs to get there. You can also feel a big, beating heart at the center of her feedback: her love for books and good storytelling...

Working with Louise on The Healing Home has been an absolutely wonderful experience from beginning to end. She brought such creativity, professionalism, and thoughtful attention to every detail of the project. From the very first sample pages, I could immediately feel that she truly understood the calm, elevated, and healing aesthetic I envisioned for the book. Louise has an incredible talent for transforming words into a visually beautiful experience. Her layouts, typography, image placemen...

Laura was absolutely amazing. She was a true professional, patient, polite and kind. All her revisions made sense and she would always leave a comment to clarify a change or propose a solution, all while preserving my voice. We had multiple rounds of editing so that I also had an opportunity to implement some suggestions,clarify some moments, that were not clear, and deal with some overused words, as well as accept/reject the changes. I felt safe, calm and in good hands through the whole pr...

Working with Bo has been an exceptional experience from start to finish. He brought professionalism, care, patience, and deep editorial skill to my book, The Art of Cash Flow: Her Journey in Treasury, Resilience, and Financial Transformation. As a first-time author, I needed not only editorial support but also guidance, reassurance, and a steady hand through the final stages of preparing the manuscript for publication. Bo provided all of this with great dedication. He helped shape the manusc...

I had a wonderful experience working with Jenny Malnick on my memoir, Six Feet Above Rock Bottom. Jenny was professional, responsive, and encouraging throughout the entire process. Her feedback was thoughtful and helpful, and she did a great job respecting my voice while helping strengthen the manuscript. She even completed the project ahead of schedule, which I greatly appreciated. I’m very grateful for her work and would absolutely recommend her to any author looking for a skilled and suppo...

I hired Zuza for the cover design, interior design, and illustrations for my book Moon Pause, and she exceeded every expectation. From the start, she took the time to truly understand the project, bringing her own valuable insights to the creative process rather than simply executing instructions. She was a genuine collaborator. My book would not be what it is without her talent and dedication. I wholeheartedly recommend Zuza to any author looking for a designer and illustrator who will bring...

Siân copyedited my manuscript using CMOS and provided additional line/developmental notes as necessary. She was incredibly helpful, kind, and professional throughout the process. Her excitement about my initial draft made me excited to work with her! Siân's suggestions and comments pointed out things in my manuscript to strengthen the story, characters, and the impact of key chapters. She asked about my specific concerns before starting, and in her feedback, she provided comments directly re...

Exceptional talent, impeccable professionalism, and a truly wonderful person to work with. Louise took my book from manuscript to masterpiece with remarkable attention to detail and artistic excellence. She consistently went above and beyond, delivering outstanding work on time while making the entire process smooth and enjoyable. Her creativity, dedication, and kindness made a lasting impression on me. Without hesitation, I can say that Louise exceeded every expectation. She is a rare gem ...

Working with Andy was an exceptional experience from start to finish. From our first Zoom call, he took the time to truly understand the scope of my project while patiently answering all of my questions. His communication throughout the entire process was outstanding. It was always prompt, clear, and professional. I never felt unsure about where things stood, which made the entire experience smooth and stress-free. Andy is not only highly skilled at what he does, but he also brings a level ...

Jane was a valuable resource for the developmental and copy edit of my nonfiction manuscript. Her suggestions clarified and improved the impact of my message. She communicated well and completed all assignments on time. I highly recommend!
