Rachel absolutely nailed everything! She was extremely communicative, very friendly, and overall just so fun to work with. The cover art she delivered was incredible and feels as if it were just plucked from my head. I literally could not be happier with it. I cannot wait to work with her again on the rest of this series! I highly recommend Rachel for her cover art, you'd be making a wonderful choice to add her to your book team.

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...

Truly exceptional experience. Miriam gave me insightful, thorough, actionable advice and renewed enthusiasm for a project I'd considered abandoning. This was very good value for the money and honestly one of the better professional investments I've made.

Katherine was the first editor I had ever worked with, and I’m happy with my decision. Katherine understood the vision I had for my story and provided suggestions to improve it while still keeping its essence. The comments throughout the manuscript were detailed (and sometimes fun to read!). The feedback made me eager to work on my story rather than feel overwhelmed. I would gladly work with Katherine again for future books:)

I'm the queen of the typos, have a problem with ....s and ,s, and Jennifer had all the right answers in her red pen. She was easy to work with and responsive. I couldn't be happier with her work product and her work ethic. I enjoyed working with her from my nervously handing over my book to her handing it back with clear, focused edits.

Again, Katherine was amazing! So incredibly helpful, and I loved reading her edits and letter. Will definitely work with again!

I cannot say enough good things about Colleen. She worked closely with me to make my dream project come true and she was super responsive and attentive each step of the way. She went above and beyond to make sure every page was exactly right, doing multiple rounds of edits to get it perfect. Colleen did an amazing job of bringing the story to life - the illustrations are beautiful and the final product couldn't have turned out better. I had never published a book before and she walked me thr...

Mark's work is absolutely outstanding. I was literally SHOCKED at the difference between the cover I was using previously (which I put together with the help of a graphic-designer friend of mine) and the cover Mark created for me. If you want to see it, look up "Unless God Builds It" on Amazon. Truly professional, bookstore quality. Eyepopping, engaging, beautiful. Just makes you wanna click it, which is the whole point! If anyone's teetering on the edge of hiring a cover designer, I highly r...

With Travis you're getting a true pro and - importantly - candor. His feedback is direct, honest, and fair and immensely helpful whether looking at minor copy edits, structural emphasis, or the big picture of storytelling. He's got a great eye for what can take the story to the next level and I'm confident that he significantly elevated not just my work but my understanding of the craft.

Working with Natalie was an absolute pleasure! From start to finish, she was patient, attentive, and always willing to help. Her knowledge and expertise were evident in every step of the process, and it gave me the confidence I needed to bring my vision to life. Natalie made the entire experience smooth and stress-free—she was incredibly easy to work with, responsive, and truly cared about creating a website that reflected exactly what I was looking for. I’m so grateful for her dedication and...

Working with Jenny was one of the best decisions I made for my manuscript. She brought a rare combination of precision and warmth to my memoir — the kind of editor who clearly loves both language and the people behind it. She was meticulous without being heavy-handed, catching the kinds of details that are easy to overlook when you've been living inside your own story for years. Tense consistency was a particular area where she pushed me — gently but persistently — and honestly, I was a littl...

Nuno continues to amaze me. This is our fifth time working together, and his professionalism, creativity, ingenuity, and attention to detail are unmatched. He has created a recognizable and amazing brand identity for me, and I can't wait to work with him again on the next project. He's truly gifted and a joy to work with!

Detailed, careful, positive, candid, knowledgable and forensic. Perfect.

Working with Joel through Reedsy was an absolute pleasure! From the start, he demonstrated a clear understanding of my vision and brought my dream cover to life with artistic flair. Not only did he deliver exactly what I asked for, but he did so on time--without rushing my feedback on his drafts. What truly set him apart was his meticulous attention to detail. Every element of the design felt intentional and aligned beautifully with the heart of my story. If you are looking for someone who ...

Dermott was extremely responsive and helpful. This was my first book and I was short of time and experience and the guidance Dermott gave has been invaluable. His developmental edits & comments & suggestions were used by me in the final edits and I would recommend him highly. Crispian
