Working with Kirsiah was an absolute pleasure. Her developmental feedback was sharp, insightful, and deeply respectful of my voice and vision. She offered thoughtful suggestions that elevated the pacing, structure, and emotional resonance of my novel. If you're looking for an editor who brings both heart and expertise to the process, I highly recommend Kirsiah.

I enjoyed meeting Adam and working with him on my PB. He provided resources in his initial assessment, provided justification where he has questions and he didn't make assumptions on the characters. We had a virtual meeting and I was able to provide the answers and context regarding my characters and where my story could go. Adam left me with realistic hope that my story could be further explored to become an essential, relatable tale that would be enjoyed by many audiences.

I am so grateful I found Mark. Not only is he an amazing designer, he’s also kind, thoughtful, knowledgeable, and extremely pleasant to work with. His communication throughout the project was very timely and informative. He made me feel like we were partners throughout the process. I couldn’t be happier with my book cover design. Thank you, Mark!

I cannot express how much I enjoyed working with Nate throughout the entire process of bringing my first book into fruition. From the get go, it was 100% clear that Nate read my book thoroughly, and really understood the intention of my book. Nate then put what was essentially in my brain onto the pages without me having to be overly explanatory about what I was trying to depict through the illustrations, which was greatly appreciated. Through his beautiful illustrations and book design, he t...

I hired Kate to do an editorial assessment of my memoir. I chose her based on the excellent reviews she’s received and her experience with this genre. Working with Kate met—and exceeded—my already high expectations. The more I sit with her thorough and detailed assessment, the more my understanding of my story's strengths and how I can improve it deepens. Kate brought depth, sensitivity, and considerable skill to the process. She gave me invaluable high‑level direction along with practical, c...

Dan has provided me excellent feedback! His recommendations were all thoughtful and highly useful in working towards a final edit. He was fully invested in the story and brought a level of enthusiasm that was highly motivating. He is an easy communicator with a very supportive and helpful manner. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a good editor for a non-fiction work.

I have really enjoyed working with Laura. The feedback I received was extremely detailed, insightful and constructive, while also being kind and encouraging. Her critique gave me a far clearer understanding of picture book structure and the editing process, as well as valuable direction on how to strengthen my current manuscript. Laura was incredibly responsive throughout the process, with fast replies, regular updates and thoughtful communication which made me feel very reassured as someone...

Lyndsay was AMAZING! As a first time author she did such a great job of explaining edits, ensuring clarity of my content and working to keep my voice and the impact of my message strong. She will be my go to editor should I decide to write another book.

Working with Erin has been an absolute joy. She is a truly great professional — thoughtful, insightful, and incredibly thorough. Her editorial feedback on The Brayhill Chronicles was clear, constructive, and full of care. Erin managed to highlight exactly what needed refining while keeping my confidence in the story intact. She gave me more than one real lightbulb moment — those “of course!” insights that instantly make everything click. What I appreciated most was her ability to point out th...

Ashley was fantastic to work with for my developmental edit! He was extremely helpful and professional, was prompt with returning messages and with completing his work. He provided great advice, clarification and outside-the-box ideas to help make my manuscript MUCH tighter and cleaner in the end. I would absolutely work with him again in the future!

As a writer, our stories are precious to us. Reaching out to someone to bring that to life can be difficult for the artist. We have expectations, visions already in place. Rachel not only met my vision, but she exceeded it. These are not just words. She is extremely talented and a joy to work with. I would not only recommend her to everyone and anyone, but also come back again and again.

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...

Working with Kelly was an excellent experience. Their feedback was thoughtful, detailed, and deeply constructive. I really appreciated how respectful and collaborative their approach was, including thoughtful responses to additional questions I had. Their report was comprehensive and full of ideas I could immediately apply, and I came away from the process feeling more confident and inspired about the next draft. I highly recommend Kelly to any writer looking for a perceptive, professional...

Nuno continues to amaze me. This is our fifth time working together, and his professionalism, creativity, ingenuity, and attention to detail are unmatched. He has created a recognizable and amazing brand identity for me, and I can't wait to work with him again on the next project. He's truly gifted and a joy to work with!

Eric was outstanding to work with and fully justified his value in the editorial guidance he provided me. My manuscript was lengthy and complex: 80,000+, words 150+ references, 60+ exercises, and more than 50 charts and diagrams at the time of draft. It covers a difficult self-help topic that synthesizes a lot of psychology research, my own insights, and newly created exercises to help readers improve themselves. It was in early draft state and Eric was one of the first human readers to set...
