Working with Molly as my developmental editor was the BEST thing I could have possibly done for my book. Her feedback was a game-changer. She has a rare talent for seeing both the big picture AND providing surgical insights that, together, were the secret sauce to elevate my messy manuscript into the book it deserved to be. She was also lovely to work with: warm but honest. Even her harshest notes always felt infused with her genuine belief in the story. I am so grateful for Molly's partnersh...

Michelle did a fantastic job with my book in not only editing but teaching me a lot about citations and when and when not needed. She was very easy to communicate with and did a thorough job. I will definitely employ her again when I have the need for a sharp, and focused editor.

Wow! Working with Nikki was such a wonderful experience and gave me exactly what I needed on a project: a pair of fresh, talented eyes to polish a story and make it stand out! Her editorial insights were fantastic and left me feeling refreshed and excited to revise! If you're looking at taking your manuscript to the next level, consider hiring Nikki as she's a gifted editor and so kind, positive, and warm to work with!

Truly exceptional experience. Miriam gave me insightful, thorough, actionable advice and renewed enthusiasm for a project I'd considered abandoning. This was very good value for the money and honestly one of the better professional investments I've made.

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...

If you are an author looking for a Spanish translator, look no further than Olga. I hired her to translate The Humility You Want and the World Needs, and the experience was exceptional from beginning to end. As an author, you want a translator who understands that the words on the page are only part of the work. Olga captured the voice, tone, and heart of the message and delivered it beautifully in Spanish. Her communication was timely and professional throughout the entire process, which ma...

It was a pleasure working with Raúl. His design way exceeded my expectations, and his commitment to the project was truly admirable. I appreciate that he adapted very well to my suggestions and took into consideration my book's contents to deliver the best cover. His timeliness and the value of his work are worth noting. I will definitely work with him in the future. Thank you for everything!

I am not a writer and have no experience with writing at this level. So I wasn't sure what to expect. I picked Justin because of his reviews and the thought he put into his response to my inquiry. I was 100% right. I wrote a lengthy explanation of what I was wanting to see and when I received my manuscript back, he incorporated all of those things and more. He really helped me put my memoir into perspective and I will absolutely be returning for a re-read. I would highly recommend Justin to a...

Emma is a delight to work with. She was able to give great feedback on my draft, while also working with my own ideas of what I want moving forward with my series as a whole. Fantasy is tough to write with all the layers, but she was excited to discuss all those layers with me--not only as an editor, but also as a reader and what the reader would expect with certain tropes and expectations. I am more confident now than I ever was before. I cannot wait for her to read the finish product and h...

Working with Tina Morganella on my book was my very first experience on Reedsy, and I genuinely feel like I won the lottery. If I could give her 10 stars in every category, I absolutely would. Tina has a rare and remarkable talent: she can take content with messy or uneven areas and transform it into an absolute masterpiece. Reading the before‑and‑after of her edits is eye‑opening. In many cases, just a few of her adjustments elevate the writing from something ordinary to something that comm...

Working with Olga was a great experience from start to finish. She showed a high level of professionalism throughout the project. She understood the concept of the book very quickly and stayed aligned with it at every stage. This made the collaboration smooth and focused. Her attention to detail stood out. She challenged elements when needed, refined ideas with precision, and ensured the final output stayed consistent with the original vision. She was also very reliable and easy to work with...

Eva was wonderful to collaborate with. The finished cover is absolutely brilliant and when I’ve put out the mock ups on a social media ad I’ve had overwhelming positive response with people saying ‘awesome cover’ ‘beautiful cover’

Jessica did an absolutely phenomenal job with the soft copyediting phase of my manuscript, Going Beyond. As an independent author, I wanted to ensure my sentence flow and grammar were highly polished while keeping my authentic human voice and personal stories completely intact. Jessica achieved this balance perfectly. She has a meticulous eye for detail, structural consistency, and tone. She was incredibly professional, highly organized, and always encouraging throughout our collaboration. He...

Reading through Rachel's changes, suggestions and comments was like receiving a masterclass in line editing. If/when I write another book, I will ask her to be on the team. Her edits brought clarity while retaining my voice. Her precision was such that when I accepted an edit in track changes mode, it came with perfect formatting. Her guidance on attributions and sources spared me from mistakes I otherwise would have made. Rachel's touch has elevated the book to a more polished--and easily re...

I couldn’t have asked for a better copyeditor. Saranne brought clarity, precision, and heart to every page. Her attention to detail was incredible — not just fixing errors, but strengthening the rhythm, emotion, and flow of the story. She understood exactly what I was trying to say, often before I even said it, and helped me bring out the best version of my work. Professional, thoughtful, and an absolute joy to collaborate with. If you’re looking for someone who elevates your writing while r...
