Working with Victory on a partial manuscript review was an outstanding experience from start to finish. I approached Victory at a very early stage of the first draft of my novel, because I needed feedback on what was working and what wasn't so that I didn't back myself into a corner before I kept going. Victory was more than happy to meet me where I was. From our first conversation, she communicated clearly, set realistic expectations, and made sure she understood both my goals for the story ...

I can not recommend Andreea Zabulic highly enough. Not only is her work of the highest quality, but her dedication to the project is phenomenal. She was VERY prompt in responding to every question or request I had, and she was extraordinarily patient, helpful, and professional. The project we worked on was very complex but her work exceeded all the expectations I had for it. She will be my first choice for any future projects that I have. Hire her! She’s absolutely at the top of her profess...

Zennor provided a thoughtful, rigorous editorial assessment that engaged seriously with both the strengths and structural challenges of my manuscript. Her feedback was clear, specific and respectful of voice, with particularly helpful insights into pacing, repetition and narrative arc. I found the report both encouraging and demanding in the right ways, and it’s given me a strong framework for revision. I’d happily recommend her to authors looking for honest, professional feedback.

Sarah is the platonic ideal of an editor. As a writer, it can be difficult to navigate feedback while trying to stay true to your ~artistic vision~. The beauty of Sarah's editing work is that it is so in-depth you can just feel she is giving her all to trying to understand what the book is trying to do and being completely honest (in the kindest way) about what it needs to get there. You can also feel a big, beating heart at the center of her feedback: her love for books and good storytelling...

If you're looking for an amazing proofreader who will go above beyond for you, look no further. Lee is hands down the best there is. He's a pleasure to collaborate with, has an eye for detail and delivers on time. I can't recommend him highly enough. Thanks Lee!

Working with Izabela was one of the most rewarding creative collaborations I have ever experienced. When I first began this project, I had a manuscript and a vision for how I wanted the book to feel, but I quickly realized that creating a book is about much more than simply placing words on a page. It is about creating an experience for the reader. Izabela understood that from the very beginning. What impressed me most was that she never approached the project as someone simply executing in...

Siân copyedited my manuscript using CMOS and provided additional line/developmental notes as necessary. She was incredibly helpful, kind, and professional throughout the process. Her excitement about my initial draft made me excited to work with her! Siân's suggestions and comments pointed out things in my manuscript to strengthen the story, characters, and the impact of key chapters. She asked about my specific concerns before starting, and in her feedback, she provided comments directly re...

Working with Nathalie has been an outstanding experience from start to finish. She brought my project to life with illustrations that are both timeless and modern—warm, expressive, and full of quiet magic. Her work strikes a rare balance between storybook charm and emotional depth, which was exactly what this project needed. Beyond her talent, Nathalie is a true professional. She communicated clearly, asked thoughtful questions, and consistently showed care for the story, not just the artwor...

Mozelle was able to take my ramblings and give me the insight and ideas I needed to create a coherent story. Her work was well beyond my expectations. The developmental edit was amazing. She was prompt and responsive to all my needs and everything was done in a timely fashion. Her thoughtfulness was evident in each correspondence/interaction we had. I will continue to utilize her services in my future works and I’d recommend her to anyone looking for a professional and thoughtful editor.

I am very happy about the support from Bryony and would work with her again anytime.

This is my second book with David, and once again his editing is exceptional. For developmental editing, his feedback is always spot-on, thoughtful, honest, and encouraging. He clearly understands the voice of the story, and his insightful suggestions provided a clear roadmap for revisions. In copy editing and line editing, his meticulous attention to details combined with his thoughtful push for more clarity and consistency has beautifully elevated the book. I look forward to working with hi...

Jane is the ultimate professional. It started with our initial call where she got to know me and my goals and the set out clear expectations for where she could use her skills to help. Highly recommend her!

Mamie has simplified the process of marketing and made the process a lot less intimidating. When I was first seeking out a professional to assist me, I was afraid I would have to do it in a way I wasn't comfortable with yet at that time, but I never once felt pushed into any avenue that I didn't want to do. She really has taken a load off my shoulders and I've come out of it knowing a lot more than I ever would on my own.

I cannot say enough good things about Colleen. She worked closely with me to make my dream project come true and she was super responsive and attentive each step of the way. She went above and beyond to make sure every page was exactly right, doing multiple rounds of edits to get it perfect. Colleen did an amazing job of bringing the story to life - the illustrations are beautiful and the final product couldn't have turned out better. I had never published a book before and she walked me thr...

I enjoyed my collaboration with Kourtney so much! She was responsive, kind, and willing to work with me and my ever-changing design ideas. Her art speaks for itself and I'm so grateful that my novel gets to live alongside it. If you get the chance to work with Kourtney, you won't regret it!
