I can’t praise Jo too highly. She has helped me to turn my scribbling into something I can now submit to literary agents.

This was my second time working with Blair on a project, and she has since edited both of my books. I truly value her feedback, attention to detail, and thoughtful suggestions throughout the editing process. She is prompt, professional, and accountable with deadlines, which made the entire experience seamless. Overall, this was another wonderful experience, and I’m so grateful to have had Blair’s expertise along the way. I’m excited to publish again, and I have her to thank for helping bring...

Flavia is an outstanding illustrator. She has a talent for transforming real people into believable characatures of themselves . It was an honor to work with her.

Where can I begin? Conni has helped me truly transform my writing and my book. When we began collaborating, I had about 3 chapters written and the structure figured out, but once I started working with Conni, my book was elevated. She helped me (and pushed me because I was a bit unsure) to create more structure and predictability to the book and chapters. I went from "I don't want to spoon-feed my readers" to thinking "well I do have to explain it because they can't read my mind." The structu...

Charlotte was an absolute joy to work with! From start to finish, she was incredibly timely, thoughtful, and thorough. We truly feel SO lucky to have found her. Her feedback was detailed, insightful, and incredibly valuable. You can tell how much care she puts into her work, and her expertise helped strengthen our manuscript in ways we hadn’t even considered. Throughout the entire process, we felt like our work was in such capable and caring hands. We honestly couldn’t have asked for a bett...

Kateryna and I have just begun our project but she is a great fit and I am thrilled to have her be my illustrator!!!

Working with Steve K. at KUHN Design Group was one of the best decisions I made in publishing my debut book, Healing Without Shame: Faith, Mental Health, and the Courage to Be Honest. From the very first conversation, Steve brought professionalism, clarity, and genuine craftsmanship to every aspect of the project. Steve designed both the cover and the interior of my book, and the results exceeded every expectation. The cover is stunning! The imagery, the color palette, and the typography all...

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

Anna was terrific to work with. She laid out the expected timeline and delivered. Her notes were thoughtful, concise, and, most importantly, helped improve the quality of the work. She didn't waste time with empty compliments but instead dove right into the manuscript and made it better. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing a developmental edit on a work of non-fiction.

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.

Incredible, wonderful experience. Ann wrote up a twenty-four page editorial summary of her ideas about my Civil War novel, and gave me specific feedback on every single page of my 117,000 word document, analyzing my work line by line. And she finished right on time! Ann is smart, supportive, and offered me tremendous constructive criticism, especially with plot, pacing, and characterization. I am a history teacher, and TO LIVE A PATRIOT is my first novel. I needed a lot of help. When I hired...

I can't say enough good things about Catherine. She took my messy first draft that was more stream of consciousness than a manuscript and transformed it into a book I am genuinely proud of. She has an exceptional ability to preserve an author's voice while bringing clarity, structure, and flow to the writing. Throughout the process, she was thoughtful, insightful, encouraging, and incredibly professional. I truly couldn't have asked for a better editor, and I wouldn't trust my work with anyon...

Working with Shenny was absolutely wonderful! She was very organized, did an excellent job getting a feel for exactly what I wanted for my website redesign, was very responsive to feedback, and delivered a beautiful website that I'm very excited about. I can't recommend her enough!

This was a wonderful experience. I wasn't sure if an editorial assessment would be "worth" it when I originally got it. I still am considering traditionally publishing after all. But this is exactly what my book needed, it feels like a doctor came through and pointed to all the possible weak points. It solved some issues I didn't even realize I had. She was easy to ask questions to, and the hour call at the end brought everything together.

This was my second book working with Mozelle. She is fantastic. I am never in the dark. I always know what to expect with her because of her great communication. I have learned so much with her. She doesn't just send back files and leave you to figure out anything. Her explanations are extremely thorough, and I really feel good with each interaction. I will hire her every time if I am able.
