Working with Holly was an exceptional experience. This was my first book and my first time working with a professional editor, and I could not have asked for a better guide through the process. Holly treated my memoir with great care and respect while also being honest when she believed something could be stronger. Her comments were thoughtful and never felt like she was trying to rewrite my voice. Instead, she helped me better understand my own writing and why certain revisions would make th...

Everything about working with Maria was first rate. She was professional, knowledgeable, easy to talk to, and crystal clear as she walked me through her process and the optimization of my book's metadata. She fully understood what I was looking for and delivered ahead of schedule. I would work with her again in a heartbeat!

Collette was an absolute gift to help bring my book to life. She took my vision and made it a reality. Collette brought ease to a process that can sometimes feel overwhelming and I can't recommend her enough. Her attentiveness, responsiveness and kindness went above and beyond. I am filled with gratitude.

I want to express my sincere gratitude to Charles for his excellent work in helping to revise my manuscript. His qualities are many: He was very friendly and personal, which made the communication enjoyable. Of course, his editorial expertise was key to the task at hand. I learned much about writing from him. His suggestions were always relevant, helpful, and challenging too! The memos and document exchanges were very timely, which allowed me to stay on schedule. Charles expressed a keen inte...

Very professional, excellent edits and supporting notes. Would definitely recommend Jessica and hope to work with her again.

Nicola was so great to work with, both friendly and professional; she really helped me with my project and gave me feedback and encouragement. As it was my first time writing a manuscript, I felt a bit lost and overwhelmed with all the steps involved, but she broke them down and made it so much more manageable to get to the next stage. She was also so quick at getting back to any messages and completing the overall collaboration. Would highly recommend her for anyone starting on their book-wr...

Exceptional design partner, world-class execution Sebastian Cudicio was an outstanding design partner throughout the full production journey of my book, Beyond Blame: A Human and Organizational Performance Approach to Incident Investigation, Learning, and Leadership. From the start, he demonstrated professionalism, clarity, and strong creative judgment, while remaining highly responsive to feedback and committed to achieving a premium final result. What stood out most: 1) Strong design thin...

Working with Alison was an extremely positive experience. From the very beginning, she was professional, attentive, and thorough, but what I especially appreciated was her warmth and positive energy. She responded to my questions quickly and clearly. She noticed even the smallest details and helped ensure that the manuscript was clean and consistent. She was patient, thorough, and always willing to take another look whenever something needed to be checked. I would work with Alison again wit...

Working with Lynn was very pleasurable due to her responsiveness and professionalism. She has a fine sense in balancing her own aesthetic taste with the preferences of the client. Everything was communicated well and I would use her services again on a future project.

Jessica gave detailed insight that will greatly enhance my book. Her insights were thoughtful and actionable, with great tips and great places to reach for inspiration. She was great to work with and I'm excited to see the improvements her advice will bring to my book once I include them in my rewrite.

Andreea was exceptional from the very beginning. From my first request, she asked specific questions about the work I wanted done, including source files, page count, and KDP requirements, and she was clear about her timelines and workload throughout. She sketched lettering options before building anything, then delivered custom title lettering that perfectly matched the artwork (the playful eye in the O is a nice touch). She also spotted a composition issue on my third cover that I would hav...

This was my first time working with someone to create a cover, and I am so happy I did. Ken was a fantastic collaborator. He immediately grasped the heart of the story and transformed it into a cover that beautifully reflected the hierarchy, secrets, and hidden layers within the narrative. His communication was consistently clear, timely, and professional, and he always made sure my questions were fully addressed. I look forward to working with him again on future projects. His creativity an...

I worked with different kinds of editors over the years. Music editors, cinematic editors, narrative editors — they all asked for a very precise labor: take a creation and elevate it in a way the author alone cannot. Sharpen the creator's voice and tighten the structure so the message is delivered clearly. Alexandra is gifted with both rigour, analytical view and deep human observation. She is generous and rigorous — a gift for any author who wants to enhance their creation.

Really enjoyed working with Tina. Great communication and she did an excellent job of doing the copy edit for my first book. She didn't just make the edits, she provided reasons and guidance so I understood the "why". Will work with her again for sure!

I worked with Maxwell to prepare a non-fiction book proposal. I am very happy with the collaboration and look forward to working with Maxwell again as this project develops. 1. Maxwell's feedback on my proposal was thorough, thoughtful, and clear. I appreciated that Maxwell has extensive experience reading and preparing book proposals and was able to explain why certain elements didn't work and suggest concrete examples of what would work better. 2. In addition to the specifics of my book p...
