I have absolutely no words to explain how incredible Nicolae has been, but I'll try! Working on my cover together has been an absolute dream. The care, dedication, and attention to detail in Nicolae's work were clear from the earliest concept ideas; communication was straightforward, and he never hesitated to try my ideas, no matter how many changes I made! Given some circumstances, Nicolae requested that the project date be changed, and still completed the project with such close attention t...

Working with Tiffani was a fantastic experience. Her line edit was precise and insightful, strengthening the prose while preserving the voice and rhythm of my novel - something that mattered enormously to me. She spotted repetition patterns and sentence-level clunkiness I hadn’t seen, and her suggestions tightened and clarified the writing without flattening its personality. My manuscript is unquestionably stronger as a result. Professional, perceptive, and a genuine pleasure to collaborate ...

Writing a query letter was 10x harder for me that writing a book. I'm sure I didn't feel that way when I was writing my book, but on the other side of it, nailing a terrific query letter seemed to take me forever. I finally got it to a place where I was confident it was good, but not great. Something was missing, Jesse helped me take it over the top. He listened to what I felt was missing, asked questions to get further context, offered suggestions based on his experienced and helped explain ...

The professional experience of editing my first narrative non-fiction manuscript was very enjoyable and successful. After an initial video chat to get to know each other, the work began with clear deadlines and progress payments established. Although at first I was naturally concerned about how the process would unfold, I was quickly reassured by Shaun's competence and willingness to both discuss and listen to all my input. It was truly a collaborative process and the outcome has been a tight...

Working with Rich on my book was one of the best decisions I made as a first-time author. From the very beginning, he took the time to understand my vision and brought it to life with incredible creativity, care, and attention to detail. The story is deeply personal to me, and Rich captured every emotion, character, and message more beautifully than I could have imagined. His illustrations added depth and warmth to the story while helping bring Luna's journey to life in a way that resonates ...

Izabela is amazing! She quickly understood my vision and delivered a beautiful, professional design that elevated the entire book. The cover is beautiful, the interior layout is clean and polished, and communication throughout the project was smooth and timely. I’m thrilled with the results and I would go to her for anything I need on future projects. Highly recommend working with her!

Robin made my book so much better I'm so glad I found Robin. From the beginning, I could tell she really got what I was trying to do with my story. She didn't just edit—she understood the heart of the work and helped me bring it out in ways I couldn't see on my own. Her feedback was honest and insightful without ever making me feel discouraged. She pointed out things that weren't working, but always with clear suggestions for how to fix them. And she caught so many little details I'd missed. ...

Abi is terrific! She understood what I was asking for from the start, and really delivered in a professional, responsive, and warm way. Her editorial assessment was clear, thoughtful and thorough, and our Zoom follow-up conversation gave me further direction and motivation. Before working with Abi, I felt like I was groping around in the dark, and now I feel confident about my next steps. I’m truly grateful for her insight and guidance.

Rebecca was fantastic! She helped me hash out all my questions about the book’s structure and how it may fit into the unfamiliar publishing industry. She was quick, reliably responsive and I have no concerns. I’ll be back for a developmental edit!

Jordan was excellent to work with, and often went over the top to deliver the highest quality work. His style is amazing, but more than that, he worked hard to understand my story and match the art with the book's genre and themes. We tweaked details and went through multiple examples almost every step along the way, and I had a lot of fun seeing the progress. Jordan has a real eye for detail and balance, providing a professional quality to the cover that is so impressive. Not only did Jordan...

Amanda did an amazing job putting my book together and all the text ! She stayed with the project until it was perfect. Amanda cares about her work and gives you her best.😘

Maxwell has a rare gift for seeing the 'big picture' without losing sight of the small, vital details. His developmental work helped me peel back the layers of my story and find its true heart. He is professional, insightful, and deeply committed to the integrity of the work. If you are looking to take your book to the next level, Maxwell is the editor you want in your corner.

William is a skilled and insightful editor. His editorial assessment of my novel-in-progress has helped pave the direction for my revision process. He is friendly and professional. Sensitive in his approach to my work, his feedback was encouraging, as well as pointed about where there were weaknesses. His knowledge about structure, POV, and how to develop characters and strengthen plot were invaluable. He has a wealth of experience as an editor and it shows. I would definitely hire William ag...

Working with Nate on my very first book was an incredible experience from start to finish. This project was deeply personal to me, and as a first-time author, I had so many questions and uncertainties. He went above and beyond—not only as a talented illustrator, but as a true guide throughout the entire process. He took the time to explain options, timelines, and costs in a way that made everything feel manageable and never overwhelming. I always felt supported and informed, never rushed or...

Working with Milica was great! I wanted her to be inspired by some of the writing to see what she could come up with. She provided various options for my cover art and interior design and I absolutely loved them. There was some back and forth to tweak some of the elements and Milica was always responsive and professional. I highly recommend her!
