Taylor is a gem! She gave thoughtful and very well-detailed feedback. You can tell she is good at what she does. And she always replied to messages in a timely manner. I would definitely hire her again if I write another book!

Flawless work. Exceptional understanding. Grasped the message of my work and said it better than I could. Nothing but praise. This one is a keeper.

I worked with Sabrina Milazzo on the interior design and typesetting for my debut novel, and I am thrilled with the result! Sabrina is both very knowledgeable and personable, easy to collaborate with and extremely patient. I had pretty much no clue about any of what goes into the interior design process, and I found all of Sabrina's explanations clear and concise. Giving me clarity on different aspects of the decisions involved, and how they impact the overall design as we moved forward step ...

Working with Nathan was a breath of fresh air. After a difficult experience with an editor who repeatedly missed deadlines and made vague promises, Nathan was everything I needed: reliable, communicative, and completely professional. He delivered polished files exactly when he said he would, with no surprises or delays. His calm, thoughtful approach made the process smooth and reassuring. I’m truly grateful for his work — and would recommend him without hesitation to anyone looking for someon...

Do it. Hire Ben. Ben is a marketing expert who excels in communication and creativity. He is supportive throughout the entire process. I had three sessions with him, all of which were extremely helpful. He provided plenty of follow-up conversations to ensure everything went smoothly with my marketing efforts. I highly recommend him, especially if this is your first crack at publishing a book.

Working with Adrienne was an absolutely transformative experience for my manuscript. She was amazing and far more than just helpful; she possesses a unique talent for seeing the bigger picture of a story. When I came to her, my plot was a collection of disconnected ideas and scenes. Adrienne skillfully helped me weave those threads together into a cohesive and compelling narrative. Her insights into structuring the story were invaluable. She identified where the pacing lagged, suggested turn...

I have this story that I am sentimentally glued to and cannot let go of. It was reviewed, analyzed, changed formats, pacing, words, and then back again. And... was still not landing. So, in the "let's try this again" attempt, I reached out to Frances. Her approach was different. She went to the scaffolding, where she proposed the changes. It made sense. I sat with the story until I changed it based on Frances's suggestions. And now it flows. So I recognize in Frances a deeper kind of vision a...

I really enjoyed working with James. He was incredibly responsive and guided me through each step, which made the whole process feel easy and stress-free. I’m so pleased with how everything turned out, especially as this was my first book! He really helped bring my vision to life and I would definitely work with him again.

Martha's editorial report exceeded my expectations in both depth and precision. I received nearly a thousand line-level comments, each one thoughtful and specific. Rather than dictating changes, she asks the right questions: where gaps exist, where the timeline needs anchoring, where repetition dulls the prose. She caught contradictions I had missed across chapters and flagged patterns I was too close to see. What impressed me most was her respect for the manuscript's voice. She pushed for cl...

Gary is an exceptional editor. He provided my copy edit at lightning speed, getting my novel back to me with professional, well-documented edits. Would highly recommend for any authors seeking a fast, well done, and affordable copy edit. Gary is the best.

Lia was an incredible editor and co-creator to work with to bring my first spiritual awakening book into form. Since I was very new to structuring a book, Lia guided me immensely through the developmental edit to make my manuscript more robust, impactful, succinct and flowing. She offered super helpful feedback on where to clarify parts, bring my storytelling more to life, add examples and link each chapter so it all weaves together seamlessly. Through implementing her feedback, I found mysel...

Working with Matthew was a terrific experience. He was communicative, professional, and deeply attentive to detail. I always felt he was invested in the success of my project, and he brought valuable knowledge from his background that helped him maintain sharp focus on the particulars of mine. Matthew caught tiny errors that had eluded me multiple times, offered suggestions for clarity with my audience in mind, and ensured everything aligned with my publisher’s expectations. He delivered ahea...

This is my fourth project working with Lucia, and I can attest to the absolute professionalism of both her editing and proofreading. Thorough, timely, detailed, consistent, constructive and encouraging ... she's everything you want in an editor/proofreader. Highly recommend!

Rachel is a pleasure to work with and I highly recommend her. She's professional, diligent, detailed, smart, and flexible. Her efforts greatly improved the quality of our non-fiction book product. Thank you, Rachel! I'm already looking forward to a future project with you!

I had a very positive experience working with Cathy. Her feedback was thoughtful, careful, and genuinely improved the clarity and structure of my manuscript. She was especially strong at identifying repetition and helping me tighten the work without losing my voice or the emotional tone of the book. Communication was clear and respectful throughout the process, and her notes showed real engagement with the material rather than surface-level edits. I always felt that the manuscript was being h...
