Stephanie genuinely knows her stuff. Her work is immaculate and I could not recommend her enough. She worked to bring to life the vision I had and created the most gorgeous book cover I could ask for. I look forward to working with her on future projects!

I cannot express enough how incredibly productive my collaboration with Douglas has been. He didn't dive into word choice or line-level edits (which I specifically didn't ask for), but instead pushed me in a way that feels true to my own voice. He saw clearly and precisely into what I was trying to say with my poetry and was able to convey exactly where that message was meaningfully expressed and where it wasn't. He asked thoughtful questions that helped me understand my own intent, process, ...

Working with Sabrina was an absolutely incredible experience. She took on my highly complex project and delivered work that far exceeded my expectations. Her meticulous attention to detail and consistent, clear communication made the entire process enjoyable, and seeing my words and illustrations come to life on the page was a dream come true. I truly couldn't have completed this project without her, and I highly recommend her to any author looking for a talented and dedicated professional.

Pamela did an outstanding job translating my novel and this was on time and at a very competitive price. I used a lot of idiomatic phrases involving comedy and she did an excellent job finding the right German expression. She also translated the metadata on top. I thoroughly recommend working with Pamela and I will most certainly work with her again if I need another novel translated into German.

I loved working with Diletta! She delivered exactly what I asked for, and went above and beyond to provide options and opportunities for collaboration. I would definitely recommend her.

Mamie was amazing. She is very experienced and knows what she is doing. she was also very flexible with what she agreed to work with me on. I wasn't sure about certain aspects of a marketing plan and she let me pick and choose what I felt was highest yield for me. I would definitely work with Mamie again.

Veronica Scott was a pleasure to work with on NeuroCARE™ and Transformative Coaching: Serving Every Generation. She took a complex manuscript with frameworks, figures, and multiple rounds of detailed corrections, and turned it into a polished, professional book. The cover is striking. It captures the NeuroCARE™ message and looks right on a shelf. The interior is clean and consistent throughout. She worked through my final corrections checklist carefully and delivered print-ready files for KD...

This was my first time writing a manuscript and my first time using Reedsy. After hours of research and looking at several editors to choose from, I selected Patty as my editor. I firmly believe that she was the best choice, offering copy editing and line editing as part of the package. Being that Patty is an award winning author and editor, I knew I would be in good hands with her all along the way, and this was the case. She is extremely knowledgeable, patient, organized, creative, and rece...

Working with Maite was what I hoped for, and more! Her background in marketing, combined with her tech savvy insight pro tips made for an overall positive experience. She is thorough in her mission to extract information to build you the website you’re looking for. At first I felt overwhelmed by this, but Maite helped me persevere through it. I’m proud of this collaboration, and so happy with the results. She created an inviting, engaging, cohesive, and joyful website for a first time auth...

I worked with Steph for developmental and line editing (who hasn't left out a few hundred commas here or there...) and I LOVED thier vibe and approach to the whole process from the very start when I sent them a sample of my work. I walked into the process of editing very green (this is my first novel) and Steph was very supportive, constructive and helpful throughout. Steph is very real and authentic in their approach to giving feedback and notes. Also, they're incredibly good at teasing ou...

I feel so grateful that I had the opportunity to work with Libris on my latest book project. He not only met all of my expectations, but he had swift and clear communication all along the way. That helped us reach our deadline a few days early, creating a meaningful book launch, resulting in my book becoming an Amazon category #1 Bestseller multiple times within weeks of the release. It really was a pleasure working with Libris, and I communicated that to him throughout the book design proces...

I'll always be grateful to Christina, a wonderful editor who truly cares. Once Upon a Boxer is my first book: the true story of our family, our Boxers and our beloved Mala, with each chapter closing on one value they taught us, from compassion to hope. Handing something that personal to a stranger was scary, but Christina made me feel safe from the start. She answered every question I had, however small, and never rushed me. She explained every change and never took my voice away. Her littl...

This is the first time that I have ventured into the world of indie publishing for an originally trad-published book that is very special to my heart. From Finn's enthusiastic reaction to the original cover brief and his initial creative response to his flexibility and openness to suggestions and the speed of his replies, he has made things feel easy and fun. I'm delighted with the final result and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Finn to anyone looking for a very positive and collaborative ...

Working with Joe has been an outstanding experience. His deep understanding of the full writing and editing process, combined with his responsiveness and thoughtful problem‑solving, made the entire journey smooth and enjoyable. He’s easy to collaborate with and consistently added value at every step. I highly recommend connecting with him to discuss your book project. Thank you, Joe, for all your hard work — it truly made a difference. Martin

As always, Natalia is a pleasure to work with! This is my second project with her and she did not disappoint. From the creative process to her understanding to what I was looking for was stellar. If you're looking for a designer who cares about your work and will know what you're looking for, you've found her! She is definitely my cover designer for the foreseeable future!
