I cannot stress enough how much I recommend working with Jamie N. He is a top-notch artist, incredibly talented! His work is some of the finest high fantasy art I've ever seen. He is also incredibly responsive and polite, a pleasure to work with. The work was amazing, and finished ahead of schedule. Moreover, Jamie will go the extra mile. I gave him precise instructions on how I wanted the art to look, and he followed those instructions to the letter. However, when I saw my own idea ...

I had a great experience working with Joe Levit as the editor of Forensic Basics. The quality of the manuscript was greatly enhanced by his editorial insight, attention to detail, and commitment to clarity. He was able to identify areas in which my original voice and intent needed to be refined without deviating from the original vision. His feedback was both constructive and encouraging, helping me improve not only the technical accuracy of the forensic content, but also its accessibility f...

Misha did a wonderful job with my manuscript. I know that details are the name of the game for a copy editor, but when working with something that's a high fantasy, Mysha did a wonderful job corralling my writing and catching the slips that I made. Going through her comments, it was reassuring to see everything that Mysha suggested tweaking and she often explained why she might keep something the same or change it, giving me a good learning experience as a writer for what I need to keep in mi...

Chris Fortunato fixed all my mistakes. His suggestions are of great value, I highly recommend him.

JC Perry was great to work with, she worked out issues as they came up. I'm new to the process so it was a learning experience. I'm waiting to see the final product on IngramSpark. The Amazon KDP looks great. I will used JC Perry's services again on my second book if she is still doing this type of work.

Working with Andie was one of the best investments I’ve made in this publishing journey. My manuscript is nearly 70,000 words, and they approached it with care, precision, and a sharp editorial eye from start to finish. Andie didn’t just correct grammar or spelling...they caught inconsistencies, improved sentence flow, and made thoughtful suggestions that tightened the work without ever diluting my voice. They have a rare talent for knowing when to preserve tone and when to push for clarity, ...

Kate provided exceptional support in refining the second revision of my manuscript—a story I truly believe in but knew needed stronger description, narrative flow, and organization. She carefully reviewed my draft, offered insightful restructuring suggestions, and added beautifully descriptive scenes that enriched the storyline. Her communication was outstanding: prompt responses, engaging video conferences with live on-screen collaboration, and a clear, organized revision schedule. Kate was ...

Wow! Working with Nikki was such a wonderful experience and gave me exactly what I needed on a project: a pair of fresh, talented eyes to polish a story and make it stand out! Her editorial insights were fantastic and left me feeling refreshed and excited to revise! If you're looking at taking your manuscript to the next level, consider hiring Nikki as she's a gifted editor and so kind, positive, and warm to work with!

Nuno continues to amaze me. This is our fifth time working together, and his professionalism, creativity, ingenuity, and attention to detail are unmatched. He has created a recognizable and amazing brand identity for me, and I can't wait to work with him again on the next project. He's truly gifted and a joy to work with!

This is my second book with Nicola, and I am so glad I came back to work with her. Not only did she bring my characters and story to life in whimsical beautiful way, but she was also responsive and delightful to work with the whole way. I had so many doubts and worries when I started the illustration process the first time, Nicola took all those away with her care, professionalism, creativity, and talent. This time, I had no worries because I knew working with Nicola again would be better tha...

Jonathan Starke is an awesome find: very professional, experienced and encouraging the entire time. I feel like I'm in a giant learning curve and Jonathan was patient with me all the way through, even sharing in my humor over everything. His review and edits to my query letter were spot on, he condensed my draft while keeping my voice intact. This is a very talented, personable fellow who will not let you down, he will be my go-to contact as I continue my writing endeavors. This has been a st...

I consider Maite of Copper Fox a champion in my career as a writer. That is how powerful she is. She combines hard-won expertise in brand story, strategy, and design with deep knowledge of an author's branding, readership, and book sales. Every step was explained to me. Every piece of the strategy was outlined for me. Though I am thrilled with the incredible look and feel of my website, I also feel confident knowing that this site checks all the strategy boxes, designed to tell the right stor...

Taylor was so helpful! She pointed out major issues with the main character that I somehow managed to miss, and gave me lots of helpful feedback. I am currently in the process of revising the manuscript thoroughly, and thanks to Taylor, it is already so much better.

I really enjoyed working with James. He was incredibly responsive and guided me through each step, which made the whole process feel easy and stress-free. I’m so pleased with how everything turned out, especially as this was my first book! He really helped bring my vision to life and I would definitely work with him again.

Shannon was wonderful to work with and did an excellent job with the developmental edits and copy edits for my debut novel. The style sheet was spot on, the developmental feedback was thorough and extremely helpful in identifying plot holes and inconsistencies, and her copy editing seemed to catch every one of my numerous grammatical mistakes. I've already booked my second book with her for later this year!
