As a debut author launching my first website, I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Maite brought real care and intuition to the process, with a strong understanding of story, tone, and emotional world-building — not just design. She created a site that feels like a genuine invitation into a story still unfolding, balancing atmosphere and clarity beautifully. Thoughtful, collaborative, and quiet confidence-building, she was the perfect partner to help mark the beginning of my author...

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!

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...

The depth of Laura’s knowledge of the English language is incredible, she is a true craftswoman. She is supportive, generous, and her genuine enthusiasm for my debut novel has given me a much needed confidence boost! The thought of publishing my novel without Laura’s expert attention makes me break out in a cold sweat. I’m looking forward to working with her again. If you want the best, choose Laura.

Where can I begin? Conni has helped me truly transform my writing and my book. When we began collaborating, I had about 3 chapters written and the structure figured out, but once I started working with Conni, my book was elevated. She helped me (and pushed me because I was a bit unsure) to create more structure and predictability to the book and chapters. I went from "I don't want to spoon-feed my readers" to thinking "well I do have to explain it because they can't read my mind." The structu...

Ken was extremely helpful with the process. This was my second book, and I really wanted to make this book even better than my first. Everything turned out great. He was also very understanding of my lack of experience with this process and accommodating of my timing needs. I hope to continue to work with him in the future and potentially even have him update my first book to match the better interior of my second.

Robin's written advice about marketing my upcoming trilogy is proving very helpful, providing at the lowest level an exhaustive (potentially exhausting!) set of actions and resources that I can use to help my books gain traction. I am finding her advice about my web page and blog to be particularly on point for the current phase of my pre-publication activities. Robin's tips and pointers about advertising will repay close study later, I think, once the books are launched. In all, I think our...

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!

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.

I couldn’t recommend Rebecca more highly as a developmental editor. She started with a one-to-one meeting to really understand the heart of the project before touching a single page — and that investment showed in everything that followed. Her feedback was thoughtful, specific, and always in service of the story I was trying to tell, not a generic template. Beyond the big-picture developmental advice, she went through the manuscript line by line, adding comments and suggestions directly onto...

I can't say enough great things about Wesley. As someone with a packed schedule, I was nervous about how hands-on the design process would need to be, but Wesley made it completely effortless. Working with Wesley was one of the best decisions I made for my book. From the very start, he demonstrated exceptional attention to detail and required minimal direction, a rare quality that made the entire process seamless for a busy professional like me. He picked up on small cues and ran with them, k...

Working with Jenny has been a dream of mine. And even though my expectations were quite high, she exceeded every single one of them. What I appreciated the most is how open she was to every idea, suggestion, or request. I would 100% work with her again. Actually, I know for sure I will!

With Jennifer, I was given insights from a professional point of view and from a reader's point of view, which allows me to understand, from a 360-degree view, what the book feels like for those who discover it. On the editing side, Jennifer was thorough and improved the flow of the text, in perfect compliance to English rules. An explanatory comment, which made it easy to choose to keep it or not always met any significant change. Reading Blue Butterfly after her work felt harmonious, an...

Mikola was wonderful to work with on my debut novel. As a French-Canadian writer working in my second language, I was a little nervous handing over my manuscript — but she took real care with it, cleaning up my English without ever losing my voice or my Quebecois flavor. She caught the little things a non-native speaker misses, and the book came back so much stronger, still completely mine. I'd recommend her to any writer, especially if English isn't your first language — she really gets it. ...
