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.

The whole process was a joy. I have no complaints. Robin is helpful, quick to answer any questions, and above all expert at what she does. Comunication was wonderful. She provided updates all along the way. The work was done on time. It really comes across that she cares for what she does and cares for you and your writing. If I write another book I will be happy to work with her again knowing that she will make the book better.

Erin delivered beyond what I expected out of our engagement on so many levels. Firstly, she instantly recognized what I was trying to achieve with a very complex story structure. Then, she offered me a call to really understand my goals with my project, and later guided me on the kind of engagement needed to achieve my goals. When she delivered the outcome of our engagement, it was clear that she'd really immersed herself into the work, arming herself by (re)reading the works of masters whose...

We are first-time authors and have never worked with an illustrator before, so we honestly weren't sure what to expect or even what we were supposed to do throughout the process. From the very beginning, Kateryna was incredibly patient, professional and understanding. She took the time to answer all of our questions and worked with us until the test illustration was what we hoped for. Everything was completed in a very timely manner and we are excited to continue working with her on our fi...

I came to her with a manuscript that was ambitious, contrarian, and structured in a very specific way. As an author, you often fear that an editor will try to flatten your voice or force your unique structure into a standard box. Kimberley did the exact opposite: she entered my world completely. From day one, she treated the project not just as a job, but as a partnership. She took the time to deeply understand the "heartbeat" of the book—why certain sections needed to be contemplative and o...

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!

Joel is an excellent artist and consummate professional. His quote clearly outlined exactly what he would provide for the agreed upon price and he fully delivered. Even after the fact, Joel continues to provide support and is going to help with with the cover uploads to KDP and IngramSpark. I will be working with Joel again in the future. If you are looking for a cover artist, I highly recommend him!

Edward is patient, kind and professional, and his phenomenal portfolio speaks for itself. If I clearly knew what I wanted, he took the idea and made it look incredible. If I wasn't sure, he came up with great solutions. I couldn't be happier with my book's cover and interior art, and can't wait to publish soon. Thank you!

I worked with Lillian on a 109,000-word adult dystopian novel for a developmental edit. We started with a quote request. Before I hired her, we exchanged a few messages about my goals for the manuscript, and I reviewed a sample edit. She returned my manuscript with extensive in-manuscript comments, which I read through before scheduling our follow-up Zoom call. As I went through her comments, I started noticing patterns. Some flagged places where the logic or character motivation wasn’t qu...

Zoe is a consummate professional. She has illustrated numerous books for me, and I can confidently say that Zoe has made my books better in ways that I never could have anticipated. I've learned through this process to simply let Zoe do Zoe. She gives each project a lot of thought and knows how to create a winning illustration to capture each moment. Highly recommend!

Raul was extremely easy to work with. Very quick to respond to any question or concern that I had. His concepts for my cover were well thought out and absolutely beautiful. It was difficult to pick one from the five he presented. I can't recommend him highly enough.

Sarah was wonderful to work with throughout the publishing process of my memoir. She was patient, knowledgeable, responsive, and supportive every step of the way. As a first-time independent author using IngramSpark, I greatly appreciated her guidance, attention to detail, and calm professionalism during what could have been a very overwhelming process. She helped bring my book to life and made me feel confident moving forward with publication. I truly value her dedication and highly recomme...

Jack was an absolute joy to work with and I can't wait to commission him again for additional work! He completely "got" my project--and asked very in-depth questions at the start to make sure he knew my vision. Every sketch was a joy to review and I can honestly say: he nailed each one the first time! His work is bold, inventive, colorful, and has a life all to it's own. One of his works received 23,467 views (to date) on my Instagram page! I couldn't be happier. Thanks, Jack!

Rachel is wonderfully friendly, professional, creative, and highly talented. She works hard to bring your vision to life in a way that is eye catching and aesthetically pleasing and truly captures the essence of your book. She was enthusiastic, helpful, and offered excellent suggestions throughout the process. She was an absolute dream to work with, and I would love to collaborate with her again on my next book. I’ll be recommending her to everyone I know.

Grace is amazing. Full stop. Her feedback and suggestions have pushed my manuscript into the "I think I might get agented" category (not kidding). She identified places where the emotional beats were missing or where my characters were overreacting. She asked thoughtful questions about my world building that highlighted areas of confusion and weakness. For example... she left me a comment saying "I don't really understand how money works in this world." You know why she didn't understand...
