Gail did an amazing, top tier developmental edit and assessment for me! She is the real deal. Extremely professional. I highly recommend her!

Working with Allan was one of the best decisions I made for my book. I came to him with a vision, a lot of ideas, and a manuscript that meant a great deal to me. He listened to what I was trying to accomplish and then took it in a creative direction beyond my expectations. He didn't just design the interior of Design Schooled - he elevated it. Allan is exceptionally talented, responsive, and always delivered on time. Throughout the process, I felt completely confident that my project was in...

Kateryna and I have just begun our project but she is a great fit and I am thrilled to have her be my illustrator!!!

I’ve worked with RuthAnn on two books in my contemporary romance series now and hope to work with her more in the future. She is fast, professional and provides in-depth feedback in a way that makes you feel encouraged and excited to get stuck in. Her suggestions have improved my writing and added clarity to my stories so they can be the best version of themselves. I can’t recommend her any more highly.

Svitlana is a 10/10, no wait, a 15/10. The cover she designed for my book exceeds anything I imagined. Right from the start she “got” my book and zeroed in on the right idea. The whole experience from beginning to end was collaborative. Working with her was effortless. Her communication was timely, efficient, and kind. Svitlana is a genuinely gifted book cover designer. I would write another book just for the joy of working with her again.

Richard is brilliant! I came to him with a project that I felt wasn't working, but I couldn't really articulate what I thought was problematic. Richard's editorial input was amazing -- he had great analytical insights and clarified for me what the underlying issues were. And he provided such helpful thoughts about how to go forward. I came to him feeling so disheartened about this book, not knowing what to do, and now I'm completely energized and have a very clear vision of where I need to go...

I am absolutely thrilled with the work Debbie has done on my manuscript. Her guidance in identifying and filling gaps in my story has been invaluable. Every suggestion and pointer feels like a masterclass in writing - it's as if she's helped me discover a better writer inside myself. Her insight, encouragement, and attention to detail are making the editing process productive and genuinely inspiring. I couldn't recommend her more highly to anyone looking to take their manuscript to the next l...

I cannot recommend Lucy highly enough. As a first-time author, handing my manuscript over to a developmental editor felt incredibly daunting, but Lucy made the whole experience enjoyable, supportive and inspiring. From the very beginning, she understood exactly where I wanted to take my book and helped me get there. She never tried to change my voice or make the book sound like someone else. Instead, she enhanced it, helping me express my ideas more clearly while keeping it authentically me....

I approached Mrs. Ridley with a completed manuscript with no idea what to do with it. She took me by the hand and guided me through the whole process. Her professional editing and publishing know-how brought my dream to fruition. I am now a published author with books available on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and other platforms. I never considered myself an author until I saw the sales. I owe it all to Mrs. Ridley. And just so you know, I'm not done with her. I'm working on a second manusc...

Charlie is proof that even in our rapidly changing world that nothing beats a human artist. Our collaboration was seamless. Charlie was very communicative and professional throughout the entire process. He read my manuscript, which at first I found surprising, but that attention to detail enabled him to translate my words and characters that I've only pictured in my head into a beautiful manifestation as my book's cover. I am in awe of the cover he produced and look forward to being able to ...

Christina was an outstanding partner in bringing my website to life. I came to her with a vision — but not much artistic vocabulary to describe it. She quickly translated ideas into thoughtful prototypes that captured exactly what I was hoping for, often before I could fully articulate it myself. Each iteration was clear, elegant, and aligned with the tone of my book. What impressed me most was her responsiveness and flexibility. When I suggested changes or refinements, she implemented them...

Working with Rebecca Allen on my manuscript, The Case of Lord Simon, was an absolute game-changer. This was my first novel and my first time working with an editor, and Rebecca made the entire process feel both professional and approachable—from her clear communication to her thoughtful, meticulous edit. Her copy edit was thorough without being heavy-handed. She strengthened clarity, consistency, and flow while preserving my voice and the historical tone of the book. Her comments were specif...

Mamie was amazing. She is very experienced and knows what she is doing. she was also very flexible with what she agreed to work with me on. I wasn't sure about certain aspects of a marketing plan and she let me pick and choose what I felt was highest yield for me. I would definitely work with Mamie again.

I have worked with Sophia on three novel projects now, and I have been blown away by her insightful, compassionate feedback each time. Working with other editors, I have sometimes found their comments overwhelming in scope and number, but Sophia's feedback is well-organized and digestible. She also is encouraging, mentioning both what's working well and what could be improved. Best of all, I think, she identifies what the project IS, not what it might be if someone else had written it, and fo...

Outstanding service from start to finish. Matthew took my requirements and came back to me with an incredible amount of detailed analysis and reasoning behind his recommendations. I took them all and haven't looked back. His expertise is obvious from the very first message and his attention to detail and methodical approach elevated my desire for a new website into something far greater. He genuinely made a huge difference to helping me prepare for the launch of my book, not to mention me...
