Stephanie was incredible to work with from start to finish! She was timely, communicative, and made the entire process feel approachable, which was especially important to me as a first-time author navigating professional editing. From the very beginning, she put me at ease and created an environment where I felt comfortable asking questions and being honest about my concerns. Her feedback was extremely informative and insightful. She didn’t just point out issues, she explained them in a way...

Rebecca was fantastic! She helped me hash out all my questions about the book’s structure and how it may fit into the unfamiliar publishing industry. She was quick, reliably responsive and I have no concerns. I’ll be back for a developmental edit!

Working with Conrad was an outstanding experience from start to finish. He did far more than simply edit my manuscript—he helped me uncover more of the stories I was trying to tell. His feedback was thoughtful, insightful, and consistently pushed me to dig deeper into my characters, themes, and emotional moments without ever changing my voice as a writer. What I appreciated most was his encouragement throughout the process. Every round of edits left me feeling more motivated and more confide...

This is the third time I’ve worked with Kim and she’s brilliant – great and fast communication, excellent expert advice and the eyes of an eagle. It shows that she loves what she does. Can’t recommend her enough. Thanks again, Kim!

Nina is an incredible editor. She goes above and beyond to make sure she knows exactly who you are as a writer and what goals you set out to achieve— to the extent that I can believe she is as invested in my story as I am. Feedback is clearly designed to help you achieve, and each critique well justified. Nina has a clear extensive knowledge of the literary industry, and will be honest about where your writing stands in the market. Her work is delivered in a timely manner. As a new writer, I ...

Marta has been a great pleasure to work with! She understood exactly what I wanted to convey from the cover, she was responsive, delivered in the promised time frame and was very kind and helpful overall. I am definetely going to work with her again; the cover of my upcoming novel looks amazing, I am very happy.

Amanda was great to work with! She was very communicative (even when I wasn't) and was able to work with my restraints and budget. At the end she gave a great assessment and response to my work which just makes me feel like this whole thing is worth it. But she was great overall and I would definitely recommend her to my writing friends.

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!!

Maxwell has a rare gift for seeing the 'big picture' without losing sight of the small, vital details. His developmental work helped me peel back the layers of my story and find its true heart. He is professional, insightful, and deeply committed to the integrity of the work. If you are looking to take your book to the next level, Maxwell is the editor you want in your corner.

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...

My first experience working with an editor. Emily was great. Everything suggested made sense. Very knowledgeable, detailed, and I was amazed that she was well ahead of schedule. Nothing but good things to say.

Dora could not have been better. Aside from being timely and thoughtful, her work captured not only the essence of the story but how I envisioned it. Absolutely first rate.

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...

Rachel is outstanding at her craft! I remember reading another review about her before choosing her. "There are book editors, and then there's Rachel!" That stuck in my mind, and my experience with her proved that to be just as true! She is top-notch: her skills, her friendly professionalism, her timeliness, and attention to detail. She put in the effort my book project deserved, and I am so grateful for our partnership in getting my book ready for the proposal stage.

Reece-Alexander Norris-Paterson or The Commander of the Northern Armies, as I call him, is a man of many names and phenomenal talent. He designed the cover of my debut novel and the result was better than anything I could have ever imagined. I don’t know what kind of magic he used, but bless him, for he reached into my mind, took out my dream cover and brought it to life, while also somehow making it a million times better. The commander completed the project on time and was willing to revise...
