I cannot possibly say enough amazing things about working with Jessica. Not only is she wildly talented (her work is absolutely stunning!), but she is also an incredible sounding board, hand-holder, cheerleader and creative sherpa. She brought my story to life in a way I could never have even begun to imagine and she made my first experience one I will never forget. I will forever be grateful for the comfort and security that came from working with such a competent, confident and caring profe...

Bryn was a joy to work with, professional, smart, insightful and very experienced. She helped push my project to the next level. And I look forward to working with her again. Five Stars!

Krista is hands-down the editor every author dreams of finding. She has an astonishing eye for micro-details, catching everything from factual accuracy and geographic nuances to intricate blocking mechanics and echoes that easily slip past the eye. Most importantly, she never tried to change who my characters were or touch the heart of my plot; she simply enhanced my voice and made the narrative shine. Her constant encouragement and clear, collaborative communication turned what could have be...

I had a great experience working with Ian on my book. He designed a really great cover and handled all of the formatting, and his work exceeded my expectations. Throughout the entire process, he was professional, very responsive, and incredibly helpful. It was clear how much effort and care he put into every detail. What I appreciated most was how comfortable he made me feel—he really listened, was open to feedback, and made the process feel smooth and collaborative. I truly enjoyed working ...

Jack was an absolute joy to work with and I can't wait to commission him again for additional work! He completely "got" my project--and asked very in-depth questions at the start to make sure he knew my vision. Every sketch was a joy to review and I can honestly say: he nailed each one the first time! His work is bold, inventive, colorful, and has a life all to it's own. One of his works received 23,467 views (to date) on my Instagram page! I couldn't be happier. Thanks, Jack!

This is my first manuscript, a very personal one. So I was a bit nervous about receiving feedback, but Anna was super supportive, kind, and professional throughout her review; I had nothing to worry about. I felt seen. My characters were read thoroughly; I can see the manuscript was edited with the same care and investment that I put into writing it. I'm very grateful for her work and would definitely recommend working with her.

I had the pleasure of working with Luca on both my book cover and interior design for my first book, and the experience exceeded expectations. As a first-time author, I needed someone with patient and knowledge to guide me through the design process, and Luca was exactly that. His communication was excellent throughout the engagement as he took the time to understand my visions, shared thoughtful feedback, and provided clear guidance every step of the way. Luca's technical expertise with fo...

Scott copyedited my 131,000-word science fiction novel, the first book in a planned series, and I could not have asked for a better experience. The mechanical work was flawless: spelling, punctuation, capitalization, and a comprehensive style sheet for my invented terminology that I’ll now use across the entire series. But what set Scott apart was everything beyond the commas. He tracked plot logic across 43 chapters, catching moments where a villain’s choices needed stronger motivation, wher...

I hired Ciera to do a final proofread on my novel, after two other editors had their eyes on it. Well, she found the mistakes they missed, and she ensured my work was a professional product. She was responsive, delivered ahead of time, and gladly looked at two additional scenes I had rewritten. She's a pro and every author needs someone like Ciera to check their work.

Working with Kelly has been an extremely valuable experience. After months of writing and rewriting my manuscript, I had become too close to it to recognize repetition, structural weaknesses and patterns that were affecting the flow. Kelly was thoughtful, honest and constructive. She identified where the manuscript could be tightened and strengthened without trying to change my story or replace my voice. Acting on her notes has made a considerable difference, and I believe the manuscript i...

This is my second time working with Miriam, and as usual, her insight and edits are worth every penny. She's professional, thorough, and has an incredible eye for detail. If you're still on the fence after reading that, then let me just say this: My manuscript has received multiple full requests. If that's why you're here, then hire Miriam. (You're welcome.)

Absolutely amazing and truly doesn’t miss a thing. Her review was incredibly thorough yet concise, with clear examples and practical suggestions that made the feedback invaluable. Additionally, she was willing to work around my budget, for which I could not be more grateful.

I loved working with Victoria. Collaborating with her was a blast. She absolutely "got" my vision for the project, and everyone who has seen the cover has been blown away. I would absolutely hire her again.

I am quite early on in the process of writing my first book. Lots of ideas. A couple of chapters and an outline. Cat gave great advice both and structured feedback that immediately helped me develop the ‘fuzzy’ parts and strengthen the parts already created. She kept in touch throughout. I really enjoyed the experience and will be back in touch with her in the future - I just need to get writing!

Working with Holly and Agustin has been a genuine pleasure. When I asked to connect with both of them, I was met by two people who are deeply invested in the project, care about the details, and are always willing to help. Their dedication really shows. I'll absolutely be working with them again — and I'd recommend them to anyone without hesitation. Cheers!
