Elizabeth took care of all of my needs. I appreciated her ability to adapt to my changes during the project. She remained very professional and patient with me throughout this time working together. She always answered my questions. I definitely would use her services again!

Kristen's attention to detail and thorough understanding of how to improve a manuscript were nothing short of remarkable. I requested several editorial services, all of which were completed promptly and to an exceptionally high standard. Her feedback was insightful, constructive, and consistently explained not only what could be improved, but why those changes strengthened the manuscript. Throughout the process, she was professional, communicative, and genuinely invested in helping my work re...

I handed Daniel a manuscript and a whole lot of nervous energy. He handed back a beautifully formatted book — and, more importantly, a sense of calm I didn't expect. From day one, he provided FAQs and clear guidance that made the process transparent and approachable. His responsiveness and genuine support throughout the project turned what could have been a stressful first self-publishing experience into something I actually enjoyed. Highly recommend.

Dom has a long list of excellent reviews for good reason. He is the consummate professional, an active listener, a coach, and a cheerleader, imploring you to achieve better results. AI cannot replicate his counsel. 6 stars!

Working with Rannia was an exceptional experience from start to finish. She brought both creative sensitivity and technical precision to the design of Unchosen, translating a concept-driven manuscript into a cohesive visual identity across cover and interior. Her communication was clear, prompt, and professional throughout the process. She handled revisions thoughtfully, incorporated feedback carefully, and navigated the technical complexities of KDP formatting with confidence and expertise....

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.

Tom has been wonderful to work with. I will definitely hire him in the future and would recommend him again and again. He is a great communicator, kind, highly skilled.

Jonathan Starke is an awesome find: very professional, experienced and encouraging the entire time. I feel like I'm in a giant learning curve and Jonathan was patient with me all the way through, even sharing in my humor over everything. His review and edits to my query letter were spot on, he condensed my draft while keeping my voice intact. This is a very talented, personable fellow who will not let you down, he will be my go-to contact as I continue my writing endeavors. This has been a st...

I hired Staci for a developmental assessment of my memoir and was impressed by the thoughtfulness and depth of her feedback. She clearly took the time to engage with both the manuscript and the larger story I was trying to tell. The assessment was detailed, insightful, and at times difficult to read—which is exactly what I needed. Rather than offering vague encouragement, Staci identified weaknesses in structure, theme, and narrative focus while also highlighting the strengths of my writing....

Kelly Carter was absolutely amazing to work with on both the cover and interior design of my book. She was attentive, responsive, and incredibly thorough throughout the entire process. Her artistic talent is exceptional, and she brought my vision to life beautifully. She was always easy to communicate with and made the experience enjoyable from start to finish. I am very thankful for her hard work and dedication, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a talented and professional des...

My experience with Rebecca is everything I wanted and more. She is very clear about what to expect and how to prepare and respond to feedback. She has suggested things that now seem so obvious but I could not see without her. In terms of a diagnostic (both creatively and structurally) she is exceptional. Everything she has suggested has made my manuscript exponentially more sophisticated. She is thorough, detailed and prompt with comms. Best of all, I feel that she knows and cares for my char...

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

Through Reedsy, I shortlisted several professionals to proofread my manuscript and provide copy-editing recommendations. Robin stood out among a high-quality field of proofreaders and copy editors, not only because of his professional experience and platform reviews, but also because of his interest in the subject of my novel. The questions he asked about the story and the direction I had taken with the main protagonist, the French artist Suzanne Valadon, convinced me that Robin was the righ...

Working with Amy was an absolute pleasure. Her professionalism, insight, and genuine care for my manuscript elevated the entire process. She approached my work with respect, clarity, and enthusiasm — offering thoughtful feedback that strengthened both the structure and the voice of my book. Amy’s communication was timely and encouraging, and her expertise made me feel confident every step of the way. I’m deeply grateful for her contribution and would recommend her to any author seeking a skil...

Working with Kara on my manuscript has been transformative. After years of writing, I came to her for a developmental edit to move forward with confidence. Kara didn't just identify technical issues; she expanded my vision for the manuscript. She balanced specificity with sensitivity, offering critique that deepened rather than diminished the vulnerability in my memoir. Her feedback gave me concrete tools to revise. Most importantly, she helped me gain clarity on my manuscript's purpose an...
