My experience with Laura has been fantastic! She not only helped me improve my manuscript, but she also encouraged me when I felt overwhelmed or unsure. Laura helped me fix a boring backstory dump; she caught a POV problem in my climactic scene; and she offered guidance with my problematic dream sequences. In addition, Laura assisted me with the genre of my book. My manuscript was stuck solidly in a state of limbo between genres, but with Laura’s guidance and revision suggestions, I ...

I would like to say that Janet went above and beyond. She not only got the the project done on time but was ahead of time. She was 100 percent professional and communicated thoroughly every step of the way. Also I want to add that she didn't make me feel like a project but a person and kept the communication light and fresh. I will be working with her in the future hopefully.

Absolutely fabulous literary artist. She's really interested in capturing strong elements and motifs in her work. Very cool style and very professional. Her work is going to really jump out on the bookshelf.

Dakota brings an editor’s precision and a poet’s ear to every line. What sets her apart is her relentless focus on line craft—enjambments, indentations, and rhythm aren’t just technical matters for her; they’re the pulse of the poem. She has a gift for spotting where a break loses torque, where a stanza can carry more weight, or where a single word could unlock the music of the whole piece. Her feedback is uncompromising in the best way: every line must stand alone as art, every stanza must ...

I hired Rebecca Goldsmith to proofread my first book, and I could not have made a better choice. Rebecca's skills were impeccable, but what impressed me most was everything she did beyond what I hired her to do. As a first-time author, there were many things about the publishing process I simply didn't know. Rebecca took a genuine personal interest in both me and my book, spending extra time answering questions, offering guidance, and making sure I understood what I needed to do next. She w...

Really enjoyed working with Tina. Great communication and she did an excellent job of doing the copy edit for my first book. She didn't just make the edits, she provided reasons and guidance so I understood the "why". Will work with her again for sure!

Working with Ken was such a great experience! As a first-time author, I had plenty of questions, ideas, and moments where I wasn't quite sure what I wanted, but he was patient, supportive, and professional throughout the entire process. What I appreciated most was how open he was to feedback. We went through several iterations of the chapter design, and he never once made me feel bad about asking for changes. Instead, he worked with me until the design felt like the perfect fit for the book....

An absolute awesome partner and worked diligently to turn this project around on a tight timeline.

Sharon was an absolute delight to work with. She kept me updated as she worked through my manuscript and was available for amendment feedback as well. Her comments were constructive and thoughtfully worded – something I really appreciated as a first-time author. As well as grammar, punctuation and word usage, she helped tighten up and improve the flow of my prose, and also pointed out where things got a little vague. I feel so much more confident in my writing thanks to her insight and I will...

Working with Lucy was truly wonderful. One of my biggest goals was to make the prose feel smooth, natural, and emotionally strong, especially since English isn’t my first language. She elevated the manuscript beyond what I had hoped for. Her explanations were always clear and spot-on, and her industry experience shines through in every note she gives. Lucy has an incredible eye for detail and continuity, catching subtle inconsistencies in the storyline that I would never have seen after so m...

Tom has helped me immensely with writing my fantasy novel. Were it not for him, I'd have taken much more time to get where I am today in the process, and with a lot more difficulty. He's a great guy and very professional, couldn't recommend him enough.

Gale was a delight to work with. Everything was done on time as per the schedule I agreed to. She is completely professional. She not only gave helpful critiques on my work but also sent extra articles and sample queries, etc. that were useful to me. She answered all my questions and was pleasant and friendly. I would love to work with her again.

Working with Jessica was an incredible experience from start to finish. She brought the world of my story to life with warmth, emotion, and professionalism, and the final artwork exceeded my expectations. Her communication was clear, thoughtful, and collaborative throughout the entire process. She listened carefully to creative direction while also offering strong artistic instincts that elevated the book beyond what I imagined. Every spread feels cohesive and intentional, and she handled sym...

Agatha’s dev edit on Unbidden is the kind of work that makes you feel both seen as a writer and capable as a craftsperson. She read my manuscript like a reader and then diagnosed it like an editor, with total command of narrative mechanics (pacing, viewpoint discipline, structure), plus a sharp instinct for what my story is really about: the terrifying intimacy of being “used” by something bigger than you. Her notes are deeply specific, actionable, and cross-referenced in a way that makes rev...

Deborah did a wonderful job as the copy editor for my middle grade mystery. Her comments were thoughtful and I felt confident with her suggested changes. She fact-checked small details that I didn't realize were inaccurate. I also appreciated the quick turnaround time. It was a great experience working with Deborah!
