If you have the opportunity to work with Steve, take it. I found Steve when searching for someone to provide an editorial assessment on a potentially tricky manuscript. He has an easy, open manner that invited trust from the start. From his initial communication about his process through his detailed report and follow-up call, the entire experience was smooth and professional. He was truly a pleasure to work with. His expertise in fiction storytelling was immediately apparent, and his final r...

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...

Working with Julia has been an invaluable experience. Julia provided a clear, insightful, and highly professional evaluation of my novel draft. Her feedback pinpointed the areas that needed development and offered practical guidance that strengthened the manuscript considerably. I was especially impressed by her ability to understand the story’s core and offer focused, actionable recommendations. I highly recommend her editorial services and look forward to working with her again.

James proofread my 63,000-word nonfiction book, and the work was exactly what a final proofread should be. He returned clean tracked changes — over 750 corrections — plus nearly a hundred margin comments where a decision was mine to make, each one clearly explained. He caught things well beyond typos: an appendix citation that didn't match what the chapter actually said, a sentence that quietly contradicted the book's timeline, and consistency slips I'd read past a dozen times. Just as impor...

Anna is a first-rate book interior designer. She has a great aesthetic sense as well as superb technical skills. I was impressed by how she integrated artistic elements of my book cover into the interior of the book. And what a relief to have my book files readily accepted by KDP and Ingram Spark, thanks to Anna's carefulness. Thumbs up for Anna.

Robert has done 13 cover projects for me and all of them have been above and beyond my expectations, but this last one with the book The Last Shadow of Eden Genuinely surprised me. Actually, I was blown away by the quality of all the samples offered. His grasp Of the book's thematic Arch was nothing short of brilliant. I cannot give a strong enough recommendation for Robert. He's the best.

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...

I hired Ciera to do a final proofread on my novel, after two other editors had their eyes on it. Well, she found the mistakes they missed, and she ensured my work was a professional product. She was responsive, delivered ahead of time, and gladly looked at two additional scenes I had rewritten. She's a pro and every author needs someone like Ciera to check their work.

I handed Daniel a manuscript and a whole lot of nervous energy. He handed back a beautifully formatted book — and, more importantly, a sense of calm I didn't expect. From day one, he provided FAQs and clear guidance that made the process transparent and approachable. His responsiveness and genuine support throughout the project turned what could have been a stressful first self-publishing experience into something I actually enjoyed. Highly recommend.

Mike Trent is the professional's professional. No matter how good we are in our own areas of expertise, we can't be everything. That's when we seek out others who are the best at what they do. Experienced, talented, and responsive, Mike is the one to call for design, composition, creativity, balance, color, and more. Add his experience to his innate talent and you get someone who will provide you with concepts that inspire, execution that will stun, and follow-through that will solidify every...

Rebecca is a professional, extremely punctual and attentive to detail. I am completely satisfied with the work she has done.

This is my first time seeking professional editing and writing. Working with Dylan has been fantastic. His edits are comprehensive and have significantly increased my confidence in my writing and manuscript. He has unparalleled responsiveness, attention to detail, and care. I fully intend to work with him on my additional future manuscripts.

This is the second time I have worked with Steve. My appreciation for his work is a 10. Thank you, Steve!

I loved working with Victoria. Collaborating with her was a blast. She absolutely "got" my vision for the project, and everyone who has seen the cover has been blown away. I would absolutely hire her again.

I'm so glad I hired J to do a developmental edit on my debut novel. She's communicative, thorough, and enthusiastic. In addition to advising me on structural hiccups like incomplete transitions and underdeveloped plot points, she corrected some typos and grammatical errors that I'd overlooked. She also took the time to answer the questions I had about her editorial suggestions. I highly recommend working with her!
