Do it. Hire Ben. Ben is a marketing expert who excels in communication and creativity. He is supportive throughout the entire process. I had three sessions with him, all of which were extremely helpful. He provided plenty of follow-up conversations to ensure everything went smoothly with my marketing efforts. I highly recommend him, especially if this is your first crack at publishing a book.

Christie's feedback was concise, clear, and invaluable. I'm working on a rhyming book, and I couldn't have completed this to a high standard without her advice on metre and rhythm. She also advised on vocabulary, and while she made some suggestions for rewording, she helped me keep my own voice and style throughout. I can't thank Christie enough and will definitely be working with her again in the future.

Working with Sarah was one of the most important decisions I made in bringing this book to life. She read my manuscript with honesty, precision, and genuine care — not just as an editor but as someone who understood what I was trying to say and helped me say it better. Her notes were direct, specific, and always in service of the story. She never tried to change my voice. She just helped me find where it was strongest and pushed me toward that. If you are serious about your book and want some...

Edward was a lovely person to work with! I felt that he was truly interested in my writing, and his helpful feedback, as well as passion for stories in general, really elevated my story. If anyone is looking for a dedicated and personable editor to work with, I'd highly recommend him!

Hannah was a pleasure to work with. She completed the work ahead of schedule and her developmental edit of my novel was thorough and honest. Hannah made it clear how I can improve the structure and pacing of my story and how to strengthen my main characters and deepen the reader’s connection to them. Her suggestions were insightful and fit perfectly with what I am trying to achieve. My book will be so much stronger after her edit. I have learnt so much from Hannah and highly recommend her.

As a first time author, I was unsure of what to expect from the editing process. Tom was very helpful and responsive. He answered all of my questions and gave me thorough feedback that helped me look at my book from a whole new perspective. Highly recommend!

She is absolutely phenomenal. From the very beginning, she approached my manuscript with incredible care and attention to detail, making sure that every single comment was clear, easy to understand, and directly relevant to my work. She didn’t just mark things for the sake of editing—she provided thoughtful, well-explained notes that reflected what she truly thought, showing that she took the time to engage deeply with my writing. Her feedback was concise yet thorough, never overwhelming, and...

Susan is the consummate professional; she communicates well, seeks to understand the author's intent and is an excellent editor. She has the rare ability to simplify and translate technical concepts, making them more accessible to readers. Highly recommended.

I absolutely loved working with Andrew on my project. His feedback, review, and suggestions were all dead on the things that I had not even noticed. He was concise. He had explained everything thoroughly giving me the bigger picture of why his suggestions and or feedback would improve a section or chapter in my novel. I highly recommend Andrew and his professionalism and hope to be able to use him again in my next project.

Vicky provided me with a comprehensive marketing plan for my books. She was patient with me and answered my initial questions and adapted the plan to suit my needs. Highly recommended.

Marsha did an amazing job. She wasn't able to get to the project for a couple of months, but once she did, she completed it earlier than expected. She had great insights on what needed improved and paid close attention to the concerns I had going in.

I am totally delighted with Ed and how he has improved my entire project. Not only does he pay meticulous attention to every detail, every comma, every capital letter, but he also combines it with the higher-level view of the story style and construction. A wee side note from Ed saying "laughed at this" or similar comments makes the whole process so fun. I was excited to read each of his notes to find the ones that showed we were reading this together. I feel I was lucky to find Ed.

Maria was fabulous to work with. She had really helpful feedback and put together a strong query for me based on a rough draft I sent her. She also was incredibly responsive. She had the work done within 24 hours of my acceptance of her offer completing it on a holiday, no less! I feel really good about what she helped me put together and will absolutely come back to her if I need more assistance!

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...

I spent a lot of time choosing a designer and I was STILL incredibly impressed. Baris is highly professional and talented and I will be asking him to design more of my covers in the future!
