Tom has been wonderful to work with. I will definitely hire him in the future and would recommend him again and again. He is a great communicator, kind, highly skilled.

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...

Her effort stands out for its compassion and care in handling difficult material. She approached the subject with a genuine sense of empathy, taking the time to understand the emotional weight of the story and the people behind it. Her ability to grapple with the way the book connects with the audience was extremely valuable, nothing feels forced or exploitative, and the harder moments are treated with honesty and respect. Her ability to relate to complex, military jargonesse, and emotion...

Jenna was a wonderful editor. Her suggestions were concrete and positive and they gave me so much to work with to make my book better. I met with her for a half hour about the first half of my book, and plan to meet again for another half hour about my second half. The notes were perceptive and useful. I am so glad I did this with her!

I have really enjoyed working with Laura. The feedback I received was extremely detailed, insightful and constructive, while also being kind and encouraging. Her critique gave me a far clearer understanding of picture book structure and the editing process, as well as valuable direction on how to strengthen my current manuscript. Laura was incredibly responsive throughout the process, with fast replies, regular updates and thoughtful communication which made me feel very reassured as someone...

Camille was such a delight to work with. From our very first interaction, I felt supported and understood. Camille’s feedback was detailed, thoughtful, and showed a genuine interest in both the material itself and my aspirations for the project. They struck a wonderful balance between encouragement and constructive critique, and I came away with clearer direction, stronger confidence in the project, and a much better sense of how to move forward. I would absolutely recommend Camille to any wr...

I enjoyed meeting Adam and working with him on my PB. He provided resources in his initial assessment, provided justification where he has questions and he didn't make assumptions on the characters. We had a virtual meeting and I was able to provide the answers and context regarding my characters and where my story could go. Adam left me with realistic hope that my story could be further explored to become an essential, relatable tale that would be enjoyed by many audiences.

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, ...

Working with Rennie was one of the best decisions I made during the publishing process. As a first-time author, I quickly learned that editing is about much more than grammar, punctuation, and style. It requires someone who can strengthen a manuscript while protecting the author's voice. Rennie did exactly that. Her editorial feedback was thoughtful, thorough, and insightful. She challenged me where the manuscript needed strengthening, encouraged me where it was working, and always approach...

As a writer, our stories are precious to us. Reaching out to someone to bring that to life can be difficult for the artist. We have expectations, visions already in place. Rachel not only met my vision, but she exceeded it. These are not just words. She is extremely talented and a joy to work with. I would not only recommend her to everyone and anyone, but also come back again and again.

Josiah was nothing short of incredible. He thought deeply about everything and really challenged me to do so as well! If you can take criticism and are committed to really digging into your work, go with Josiah! He was polite, professional, and very knowledgeable. Would definitely come back again and he was worth every dime.

Holly provided a developmental edit on my 68,000-word memoir. She delivered a thorough editorial letter plus over 100 inline comments, but what impressed me most was how deeply she engaged with the material. She didn't just fix things, she helped me understand what the book was actually about. Her structural feedback was specific and actionable: where to open, what to move, which characters needed more presence. She identified tense inconsistencies I'd been blind to and gave me grammar lesso...

Connor did an outstanding job. He brought clarity to my vision and ensured the flow stayed smooth and engaging. I’d gladly work with him again on future projects.

Hannah was great!! She knows story and loves talking story. She went above and beyond to make sure my script was solid.

Working with Rebecca was an absolute game-changer for me and I am so grateful for the time she spent tightening up my manuscript. I'd been stuck for a while and needed a professional set of eyes to make sure I was headed in the right direction. She was clear, positive, and incredibly insightful. She helped me identify plot holes, strengthen character arcs, and tighten emotional threads that made the story so much stronger. She told me exactly what was (and wasn't) working while still being in...
