Sarah is an exceptional editor with a thorough understanding of how to take a manuscript to the next level. I knew from our first interaction that she was a consummate professional as she set the tone for our working relationship with kindness and efficiency. She delivered her suggestions and advice promptly with an obvious eye for detail and care . She just gets it! I am so pleased to have found an editor that is reliable and insightful. I highly recommend Sarah.

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 ...

Working with Ana was absolutely amazing. She is extremely collaborative, brings a wonderful energy to her work, and provides a thoughtful perspective to the entire design. She did an incredible job interpreting my manuscript and creating new ways to showcase the content. She was very responsive and transparent, and provided a lot of project updates. Definitely recommend and can't wait to work with her again.

Alexandra has an incredible gift, her feedback is not only amazingly descriptive, but also deeply insightful. She has a rare ability to articulate exactly what’s working in a manuscript and, more importantly, what isn’t, in a way that’s both clear and constructive. Her notes revealed the underlying structural and narrative issues that I couldn’t quite identify on my own. Thanks to her guidance, I now have a much stronger sense of direction for the next phase of revision. I’m so grateful for h...

I had the pleasure of working with Roberta to edit my book and design the cover, and I can't recommend her enough. She was incredibly patient and understanding, especially since I had lots of questions as a first-time author. Roberta worked within my budget and went above and beyond to help me with the formatting and overall presentation of my book. Thanks to her support and expertise, I felt confident and supported every step of the way. I'm so grateful for her help and highly recommend her ...

I absolutely loved working with Joanna, it is my first book and she was incredibly helpful guiding me through the process. Once I'm finished with the revisions I will be seeking her advice again as a Copyeditor. Highly recommend

There isn't enough space here to fully express how amazing it is to work with Hannah. Her skills are exceptional, her timing is perfect, and overall, her vibes are fantastic. Communication? Excellent. Her knowledge is clear in her work!!!! I've teamed up with Hannah twice, and I will definitely work with her again in the future.

I sent my proposal to five editors on Reedsy. David was the only editor who suggested a free sample edit on the first couple of chapters. I can't imagine hiring an editor without first seeing how they edit, how they interact with my material and how they make suggestions. It showed immediately how serious and thorough an editor David is. I was won over straight away after reading David's comments and edits because he pointed things out that had never crossed my mind but which in fact were hug...

Michael was an absolute pleasure to work with! His responses were always timely and constructive. Working with me through different formatting and grammatical styles and going into in-depth explanations for each. As a new author, this was my first time having my book professionally edited and I was super nervous. However, Michael was extremely patient with me. His attention to detail is excellent and he did an amazing job going through my manuscript. It was a pleasure working with him and I w...

The experience has taught me how essential it is to have your work reviewed by a professional editor. I wish I had done this for previous projects. The insight Susan gave me awakened me and challenged me. It helped me develop as a writer. It was truly a blessing.

I give Nina Roy the highest marks possible in all areas. She's simply amazing and I cannot say enough great things about her. Her work far exceeded my expectations- she praises what is good and takes the time and care to discuss what doesn't. Her suggestions about how to fix problem areas are of great help to me. Nina is so thorough and all her communqués just bubble with dedication to be of service too her client. I think she's a fabulous asset to my book and well worth the money that was re...

Megan was a delight to work with, making the entire design process simple and painless. My book looks fantastic, and I'm very pleased with the results! Megan provided excellent communication, and her turnaround time on everything, including changes, was speedy. Highly recommend her!!

Alice did a thorough job of proofreading my book. She answered all of my questions with clarity and in a timely manner. Her cost was reasonable, and I am satisfied with her professionalism. It was a pleasure working with her.

It was a pleasure to work with Sophia on this project. She completed a manuscript assessment for my novel, and her feedback was invaluable. The assessment was thoughtful, detailed, and full of insights that instantly resonated — everything seemed to click into place. Sophia delivered the report ahead of the agreed deadline and kept me updated throughout the process. She was generous with both her time and expertise, and I truly appreciated her care and clarity. I would absolutely recommend So...

Absolutely fabulous literary artist. She's really interested in capturing strong elements and motifs in her work. Very cool style and very professional. Her work is going to really jump out on the bookshelf.
