Working with Holly Welker on my memoir Under a Canopy of Grapes: Letting Go and Coming Home on the Camino de Santiago was one of the best decisions I made in the entire publishing process. Holly brought extraordinary care, patience, and respect to both the manuscript and the life behind it. She understood instinctively what I was trying to say and helped me say it more clearly without ever losing my voice. That's a rare gift in an editor. She pushed me where I needed to be pushed, held back...

Lorna was extremely patient and helpful as she guided me through the process. She is a meticulous proofreader, did an amazing job.

I have worked with Veronica in the past and will continue to do so in the future. She is very kind, patient, and quick to respond to messages. She is also a creative problem solver and tackles any speed bumps that arise in the book publishing process with finesse and positivity.

Working with Ed was absolutely fabulous, from the moodboard he sent me immediately with ideas for my cover to the three potential covers themselves and right along in the process until we picked a final cover and colors and he completed it. He is a consummate professional, totally responsive, and incredibly talented. I finally have the sort of cover I've been wanting for one of the books in my mystery series ever since I started writing them. The finished cover is so gorgeous that I can't sto...

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.

My experience with Melissa was smooth sailing. She was professional, understanding, honest and accommodating. I published my first novel Veritas Naturae back in June thanks to Melissa's help. She was very detailed when giving feedback and receptive to my concerns and questions and very patient! I was nervous at first but she was very open and encouraging the whole time and I wouldn't have gotten to publish so soon if I hadn't reached out to her and she took a chance on me. Hope to ...

Working with Sarah was a dream. Having gone as far with my manuscript as I could with the help of writer friends (and a writing teacher), I wanted someone with a background in publishing who would help me dig deep and see the novel in a new light. Sarah more than exceeded my expectations, providing a lengthy editorial letter that addressed every issue I'd wondered about and several I had not, as well as extensive, detailed, and extremely thoughtful notes in the manuscript itself. After a coup...

Andie didn’t just edit my book — she felt it. She approached Flight of a Dog’s Soul with both precision and heart, treating every line with the care of someone who truly understood what the story meant. Her feedback was thoughtful, her edits seamless, and her empathy rare. If you want an editor who makes your work better and honors its soul, hire Andie.

I discovered Oksana when I watched the live Reedsy’s “Anatomy of a Great Scene” presentation on April 9, 2025. It was amazing and I highly recommend anyone interested in developmental editing for their project to check out the recording! When I first saw her, I immediately knew she was someone my project needed. Prior to that, I didn’t even know what a Developmental Editor or a scene was! And I was right: she was the perfect match for my project! In addition to being an amazing combinati...

This is the third time I’ve worked with Kim and she’s brilliant – great and fast communication, excellent expert advice and the eyes of an eagle. It shows that she loves what she does. Can’t recommend her enough. Thanks again, Kim!

Lyndsay was AMAZING! As a first time author she did such a great job of explaining edits, ensuring clarity of my content and working to keep my voice and the impact of my message strong. She will be my go to editor should I decide to write another book.

This was my second book working with Mozelle. She is fantastic. I am never in the dark. I always know what to expect with her because of her great communication. I have learned so much with her. She doesn't just send back files and leave you to figure out anything. Her explanations are extremely thorough, and I really feel good with each interaction. I will hire her every time if I am able.

Victoria was not only wonderful to deal with, friendly and accommodating, she also provided me with a thorough and detailed edit that has helped me produce a polished manuscript. Her communication was excellent and I couldn't recommend her highly enough.

Lisa is amazing and it was the easiest decision to have her do the cover for my second book after she did the first. Highly recommend!

Shawna is amazing! As a first-time writer, I was really nervous about the process and wasn't sure how everything would play out, but Shawna made sure that I felt comfortable the entire time and helped me set clear goals for myself that were realistic for me within my framework. She listened to me and really helped enhance my creative process in a way that wasn't punitive in nature. 100/10 I look forward to working with her again!
