Claire is a writer's dream editor and proofreader. Her thorough attention to detail and responsiveness are reassuring for new authors like myself who value an expert's guidance and support. She also clearly read every word for meaning and clarity in addition to providing thoughtful comments and questions. I would work with her again without hesitation!

Abi is terrific! She understood what I was asking for from the start, and really delivered in a professional, responsive, and warm way. Her editorial assessment was clear, thoughtful and thorough, and our Zoom follow-up conversation gave me further direction and motivation. Before working with Abi, I felt like I was groping around in the dark, and now I feel confident about my next steps. I’m truly grateful for her insight and guidance.

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!

Rozi completed an absolutely wonderful edit of Chapter One of my manuscript. She delivered an exceptional marked-up copy with a highly detailed dev-report. Her insights were profound and really helped to sharpen my voice and tighten my pacing/tension. Her edits were thoughtful, encouraging and highly detailed, and it gave me so much to work with, whilst still maintaining my own voice and narrative-intent. We are now moving onto completing a developmental edit of my entire manuscript. I can ...

I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better editor. From the beginning, I was looking for someone experienced with horror and also mindful of pricing, and he exceeded my expectations on both fronts. He was transparent and thoughtful with every batch he returned, offering honest feedback while remaining receptive to my revisions. As this was the first book I’ve ever written, it meant a great deal to have someone so reliable and supportive throughout the entire process. I would absolutely love ...

Chad was very professional and easy to work with. We had good communication and that's something that's very important to me. He had great ideas and he let me know when the ideas that I had might not work well for SEO or the function of the site. I appreciated his expertise and creativity. He helped me finally establish solid branding and I LOVE my new website. I highly recommend!

This is my first book so I had manner lessons to learn that negatively impacted my efficiency. Chandler was kind, patient, and prompt. My communication style was readily adapted by Chandler. My book required a design that could hold the heaviness of the subject matter with room for the reader to breathe. Chandler understood this and designed a book that will hold the reader with care and compassion simply based on the white space, font style and size, and pacing of the manuscript. On my own, ...

This is the first time that I have ventured into the world of indie publishing for an originally trad-published book that is very special to my heart. From Finn's enthusiastic reaction to the original cover brief and his initial creative response to his flexibility and openness to suggestions and the speed of his replies, he has made things feel easy and fun. I'm delighted with the final result and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Finn to anyone looking for a very positive and collaborative ...

My experience with Dan was exceptional and outstanding in every way. He helped me transform my rough manuscript into a much more polished, coherent and commercial product. His insights and comments were very helpful and productive. He knows how a story should be told and his organizational and formatting skills are readily apparent. He is able to develop a great working relationship that is very collaborative and his communication skills are highly developed. I couldn't be more satisfied with...

This was my second time working with Saranne, and it is always a pleasure. She went line by line through my manuscript with me, and it was truly a delight to collaborate with her again. Our sessions are productive and focused, yet the time flies by because she makes the process enjoyable. We worked diligently, and at the same time we had a lot of fun. Saranne takes her work seriously—as if the book were her own—and her care, attention to detail, and commitment really show. I am very pleased w...

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 had an absolutely fantastic experience working with Phillip Dannels on my book cover! I was initially drawn to Phillip’s art style and the quality of work in his portfolio, especially his previous book covers. From start to finish, he was a great and responsive communicator and truly a wonderful collaborator. What really set Phillip apart was the way he worked specific details from my story into the different layers of the cover, making the artwork feel deeply connected to my book. Every ti...

Lucy was lovely to work with. She identified a core question straight away that needed to be answered while helping me with my book proposal. She was responsive and engaged and her helpful questions allowed me to find the focus of the proposal and polish it from there. I'm so grateful for her input and help!

Title: Exceptional designer and collaborator Working with Andy was an outstanding experience from start to finish. As a first-time author navigating the design process, I had plenty of ideas but very little experience translating those ideas into an actual book cover. Andy was incredibly patient throughout the process. He took the time to listen, interpret my thinking, and guide me through the creative decisions without ever making the process feel overwhelming. What impressed me most was ...

I am new to writing and the whole editorial process. Kellyn was very helpful and understanding. She was happy to do a basic read through of the manuscript and then work with me honestly on where the manuscript sits in terms of publishing and what I'll need to do in order to get it to that stage. I would highly recommend her for any part of the editing process.
