Laura's feedback definitely exceeded my expectations; it was a good critical mix that I can really see and understand what I need to do to make my story better. I would work with her again :)

I can't say enough good things about Helen. She was an absolute dream to work with and provided a thorough, insightful review of my manuscript, along with practical suggestions that genuinely improved the story. Helen understood exactly what I was trying to achieve and her feedback strengthened the manuscript while still preserving my voice. Her comments were thoughtful, encouraging and incredibly professional, and it was clear she had invested real time and care into the project. In fact, ...

Wow. I highly recommend Lee. I've just finished working with him on my first book. He's top notch. Very creative, professional, highly skilled, talented, positive, helpful, and encouraging too. I really enjoyed the process of working with him. He went above and beyond giving me helpful tips since he's published some books himself, and he patiently worked with me as I try to fit publishing my first book; Capacity, Escape Your Invisible Limits, into my busy life. The cover that Lee designed is ...

Alexandra has an incredible gift, her feedback is not only amazingly descriptive, but also deeply insightful. She has a rare ability to articulate exactly what’s working in a manuscript and, more importantly, what isn’t, in a way that’s both clear and constructive. Her notes revealed the underlying structural and narrative issues that I couldn’t quite identify on my own. Thanks to her guidance, I now have a much stronger sense of direction for the next phase of revision. I’m so grateful for h...

I worked with Holly on my memoir, a book about a tough childhood and building a business from the ground up, and she was fantastic. Detail-oriented to a level I didn't know existed. She caught everything at the line level, but she also saw the bigger picture: the conceptual storytelling, the arc, where the narrative needed to breathe and where it needed to move. I ended up rewriting large sections of the manuscript based on her recommendations. Every one of those rewrites made the final produ...

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Review for Evelina Garliauskiene — The Genius Behind OBSESSED Working with Eva was nothing short of extraordinary. She didn’t just design my book — she brought it to life. OBSESSED was never meant to be another leadership book. It’s a manifesto, a movement, a declaration of war against mediocrity — and Eva captured that energy perfectly. Every page, every font, every spacing choice felt intentional, bold, and alive. She pushed creative boundaries with me — from the right-edge pa...

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...

You cannot do better than Sara, so don't bother trying! I initially chose to work with her because she was the only editor who showed actual excitement for my project, and that was a choice well made. Sara is genuinely passionate about your story, your characters, and her work as an editor. She truly wants to see your story become the best it can be and strikes an excellent balance between encouraging the parts of your writing that are strong and giving constructive criticism on the parts tha...

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...

Working with Eva has been outstanding. Her feedback is precise, insightful, and always grounded in a deeply invested and intelligent understanding of the manuscript. She brings clarity to structure, tone, and theme, and her guidance has consistently elevated my work. Professional, reliable, and genuinely inspiring—an excellent editor of very high caliber, and craft. I highly recommend.

Zoe was fantastic to work with! She was responsive, understanding, and so fast with changes! Not only did she finish on time, she completed the work a month early once she learned of some time constraints on my end. I cannot say enough good things...and I hope to use her again soon. :)

Rachel absolutely nailed everything! She was extremely communicative, very friendly, and overall just so fun to work with. The cover art she delivered was incredible and feels as if it were just plucked from my head. I literally could not be happier with it. I cannot wait to work with her again on the rest of this series! I highly recommend Rachel for her cover art, you'd be making a wonderful choice to add her to your book team.

Gabriella was a sharp, efficient editing partner on my government art grant application. She worked with my tight schedule for a quick turnaround and helped me submit everything by the deadline despite broader uncertainties. As a non-native English–speaking academic, I felt fortunate to be working with someone who shares an arts and humanities background and understands the nuance of academic writing. I especially valued how her editing feedback was clear, respectful, and explained her rea...

Patsy produced such a gorgeous design for my upper middle-grade historical novel! This is a challenging category to illustrate because covers need to show the book is for young people without looking too childish, and showcase the historical setting while still looking "cool" to tween readers. Patsy took the time to read my manuscript, research the culture and then produced a design that exactly captured the atmosphere of the book. Over the weeks that we worked together, she was consistently...

I hired Bonnie for both copy editing and interior book design for my nonfiction book, Stop Stealing From Yourself, and I'm glad I found someone who does both well. Bonnie was timely, responsive, and easy to work with throughout the entire process. She answered my questions clearly and never made me feel like I was asking too much. What stood out most was her willingness to accommodate small changes even toward the end of our contract — that kind of flexibility matters when you're finalizing ...
