I am delighted to share my experience working Eleanor as editor, whose professionalism, insight, and dedication made an extraordinary difference in bringing my manuscript to publication readiness. From the outset, their communication was clear, timely, and highly organized. Deadlines were consistently met, and I always felt confident that my work was in capable and committed hands. Their responsiveness and willingness to engage in thoughtful discussion ensured that every stage of the process ...

Nvard is an outstanding artist. Her portfolio immediately appealed to me for the clarity of the visual language and her mastership in using typography as central part of the design. Interaction with her has been a pleasure and has been extremely productive. Her advice was to the point, the delivery of the material timely, and her willingness to go through iterations was extremely helpful. The results exceeded my expectations and I learned a lot during the process.

If you are reading this review because, like me a few months ago, you are dipping your toes into getting professional help with your book, then all I can say is DO IT! I read through all of Mark’s reviews, and I knew he was the type of editor I wanted and needed. From the moment I made contact, I felt at ease. He is enthusiastic and genuine, but he doesn’t sugar-coat either. The thing I found with Mark is that he really understands the journey. I do not know the writing world, and I was hone...

Ellie designed and built the author site for my debut book, The Choice Is Yours, and then carried the work well past the design into launch marketing and handover. That range is rare, and it is the reason I would hire her again. What stood out first was how quickly she found the voice of the project. The site reads like me, not like a template with my name on it. When I told her every visual on the site had to be original, she did not argue the point or look for a workaround. She replaced wh...

Working with Gary was an absolute game changer in my project. His attention to small mistakes were incredibly helpful for my project to feel smooth and nicer to read. He was incredibly supportive of my project and I am super happy to have worked with Gary and would definitely recommend and would love to work with on future projects.

I cannot express enough that working with Lisa was the best decision I could have made for my father’s book. She brought precision, compassion, and true editorial mastery to every page. Lisa didn’t just edit the manuscript — she elevated it. She understood the heart of the story, protected my dad’s voice, and shaped the book into something I am deeply proud to publish. Her instincts were excellent, and she was spot-on with every detail. Her professionalism, communication, and genuine care ar...

Nina is FABULOUS. She is excels at communicating and gives thoughtful feedback. With her comprehensive edit of my novel, she never tried changing my voice or the structure of the story. She only made it stronger! I can't recommend working with Nina enough!

This is my second collaboration with Clint, and it was just as easy and seamless as the first time. He again surpassed my expectations and created something that far exceeded what I had imagined for the project. I look forward to working with him again in the spring, and hopefully for many additional projects to come.

Working with Tina has been one of the most meaningful and transformative parts of my publishing journey. She is that rare kind of editor who brings equal parts mastery, intuition, and genuine care to every page. Her feedback was never just technical — it was clarifying, grounding, and deeply attuned to the heart of the work. I felt seen, supported, and sharpened in all the right ways. Tina doesn’t simply polish a manuscript; she elevates it. She listens for the soul of the book, protects its...

This is my second time working with Harrold-Vincent Villanueva and couldn't be happier with the work he did, both times. I constantly get praise over the covers he's done for me, which I don't think I need to tell you is invaluable for an author. As much as the old saying gets tossed around, people can and do judge a book by its cover. Not only is he a talented, hardworking artist, but you can really tell he cares about the covers he puts out and the stories they're trying to tell. I'll b...

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...

Working with Frances across multiple projects has been an incredible learning experience. Each time, I’ve walked away grateful for her time, expertise, and guidance. Both the editorial assessments and developmental edits she provided gave me invaluable insight into the publishing landscape and the revision process. I feel as though I keep a tiny Frances on my shoulder now whenever I sit down to revise, pulling her considerations into my work. When in doubt, ask yourself: What would Frances do?

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.

Working with Nina has been such a positive and productive experirence. Her knowledge and professionalism was of great benefit for me. It's my first time going through a process such as this, and it's been quite productive and beneficial. I appreciate her partnership in this process and will not hesitate to engage with her again, should the need arise.

Val proofread my novel The Sovereign and caught way more than I expected. Not just typos and style sheet inconsistencies, but continuity and timeline issues I had stopped noticing. Her notes always gave me options instead of telling me what to do, so the book still sounds like me. Great experience, would hire her again.
