I hired Savannah to do a developmental edit on my manuscript. The thought of finding someone to edit my work was intimidating, but Savannah came highly recommended, and it took only one conversation to know she would be the right person to collaborate with. As I write this review, I wish nothing more than to amplify the praise that others have shared. She took exceptional care of my manuscript, and provided invaluable feedback. She was easy to communicate with and provided flexibility in se...

I’ve had so much fun collaborating with Kristen. Not only has she championed my novel as if it were her own, she’s also gone above and beyond to ensure it’s in the best possible shape for publication. Her feedback has been super helpful, and I’m already looking forward to working with her again in the future :) I’d definitely recommend her to any author looking for someone who approaches their book with passion, care and professionalism.

Ian is a meticulous editor, worth every penny you’d spend on editorial. Even though I hired Ian only to do copy edits, he put in the extra effort to proofread and also give some inputs on developmental level. Every comment he makes goes a long way in making my manuscript better. His impeccable work shows how much he cares for the manuscript and your story. His work not only improves my manuscript but also teaches me to be a better writer. My only regret is not involving Ian sooner in my work....

Working with Olga was an excellent experience. She went above and beyond, showing remarkable patience to ensure the cover was absolutely perfect - and the result exceeded my expectations. Throughout the process, she was friendly, communicative, and receptive to every request for revision. I wholeheartedly recommend working with her.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Exceptional Editor — Above and Beyond Every Step of the Way Working with Patricia has been one of the highlights of my publishing journey. She went truly above and beyond in every aspect of the editing process. Not only was she incredibly thorough and thoughtful, but she was deeply involved from beginning to end. She read my manuscript more times than I ever expected an editor would — and each pass brought new insights, clarity, and improvements that elevated the entire book. Pat...

Chiara was great and listened to what I wanted. She was responsive and finished work on time. I enjoyed working with her!

Rebecca was a pleasure to work with. She completed the work on time (actually, ahead of schedule!) and in a professional manner. She did a thorough check of all the (many) historical, geographic, and linguistic references that I made and suggested numerous corrections. Her recommended edits aided me in smoothing out my work, making it less repetitive, and making it more cohesive overall. Once she provided me with the file that she proofread, she remained very responsive and happily answer...

Lynne is a fantastic writing coach. She is a natural teacher and honed in quickly on key issues with my draft novel and how to address them. Lynne's insight and advice is helping tremendously as I revise my draft--elevating my understanding of storytelling and my confidence. These are lessons I never learned in a creative writing course at university, but I wish I had. She provides such clarity that her suggestions seem natural and obvious afterwards--but the fact is, I never would have ar...

Claire was a delight to work with. She was knowledgeable, prompt, and thorough. It was easy to gain confidence in her work very quickly because of her timely communication and the samples she sent early on. This was an investment for me, as a first time author and one-woman business, and it was well worth the money. My book is a much better product because of Claire's help. She also explained things to me and answered all of my questions. She saved me time by reorganizing my chapters after I ...

Karolina is professional and polite. I can't say enough good things about working with her. From the beginning, she was clear about what she could offer based on my needs. I appreciated her outline which helped me visualize the workflow and the outcomes. Our communication was steady, open, and friendly. I truly felt heard and seen as an artist and I enjoyed the small ways we overlapped in our personal lives and values. Her book covers were all amazing which made it difficult to choose (the si...

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.

Working with Dora has been an absolute pleasure! In addition to her brilliant work as an artist, Dora has consistently demonstrated professionalism and responsiveness. She took my feedback into careful consideration and created a beautiful piece that truly honored my vision. I am so grateful for collaborating with her on my book cover!

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...

Charlie was wonderful to work with very responsiveness , did everything I needed made great suggestions right to the end. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him for his skill and professionalism.

Amber is phenomenal at what she does! Her communication was timely and thorough from beginning to end. I went with her because of how much value/personalized feedback she offered to me on my chapter sample before we even began working together. She clearly got the heart and soul of my book. We got to have two calls together, and I can't imagine my book getting to the level of quality its now at without her development editing report and extensive feedback. I will work with her again in a hear...
