This is my second time working with Miriam, and as usual, her insight and edits are worth every penny. She's professional, thorough, and has an incredible eye for detail. If you're still on the fence after reading that, then let me just say this: My manuscript has received multiple full requests. If that's why you're here, then hire Miriam. (You're welcome.)

Helen is absolutely wonderful to work with. Her developmental review on my manuscript was very thorough and thoughtful. Her insights both into what is going well and where it needs work were clear and easy to understand. The advice and suggestions were actionable. Her review will most definitely help shape my writing on my current manuscript and all future projects.

It's been an absolute pleasure working with Candace. Her artwork is beautiful, she was super-responsive, and she was innovative in creating the best path to the artwork I required. I highly recommend her and hope to work with her again in the future.

Sofie is absolutely incredible! For someone who just wrote an entire book, I know it’s hard to believe that I’m struggling to find the words to describe her talent, but I am. She took a very clunky vision I had and turned it into a cover and design package that was better than anything I could have imagined. I’ve had countless people comment on the cover, and that is all thanks to Sofie. She has an incredible ability to understand not just what will look beautiful, but what will communicate t...

Working with David has been a wonderful experience. Not only did he listen to my ideas, he provided several renditions to choose from, allowing me to decide which direction I wanted to go with it. I will definitely be seeking his help with future projects.

Congratulations to Reedsy for including in its roster a professional with the excellence of Dr. Charles Davidson, at once a scholar, an experienced editor, and a distinguished author himself. This collaboration very much exceeded my expectations. Without ever condescending, Dr. Davidson read my offering, listened to my needs and hopes, and fashioned a comprehensive response that answered my questions and provided the specific feedback that I had requested. Some editors slow down a project wit...

The story was The Judge’s Daughter not Conspiracy. Fictionalizing a complex story based on real experience is a challenge. More so for an octogenarian emerging to write. Zeynep in a professional manner tested my work in her analysis against critical desirable elements rather than preach. She made several useful elemental suggestions to tighten my storyline, including a timeline adjustment and an impactful repositioning. She is pleasant yet concrete. I think the world of her capacity base...

Robin is a wildly talented copyeditor. The level of detail and care in her work was outstanding and I could tell she really put a lot of time and effort into the edits. She did an amazing job at keeping my voice in the writing, even giving character-specific suggestions for edits, while still making sure it flowed well. Going through the edits felt like I was seeing my book go from being a manuscript to a novel. I would highly recommend her and will definitely be using her services again.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Review for Evelina Garliauskiene — The Genius Behind OBSESSED Working with Eva was nothing short of extraordinary. She didn’t just design my book — she brought it to life. OBSESSED was never meant to be another leadership book. It’s a manifesto, a movement, a declaration of war against mediocrity — and Eva captured that energy perfectly. Every page, every font, every spacing choice felt intentional, bold, and alive. She pushed creative boundaries with me — from the right-edge pa...

This was the most incredible experience ever for me. Florin was extremely professional and also kind, his work exceeded my expectations while aligning perfectly with my vision. He went above and beyond with my many different requests, and created something truly special, unique and beautiful. I sent many different references and explanations, and his work was exactly what I wanted, but with creativity and skill I couldn’t have imagined myself. It was my first time commissioning an artist ...

Working with Kelly was one of the best decisions I made for my book. I had already run my manuscript through multiple editing programs and thought it was in pretty good shape, but Kelly still found countless errors, inconsistencies, and opportunities for improvement that I had completely missed. The book read and flowed so much better after her improvements. What impressed me most was how meticulous and thorough she was throughout the entire process. Not only did she carefully edit the manu...

Barbara was fantastic to work with on the copy edit for my book. Her turnaround time was excellent, and she consistently asked thoughtful questions that pushed the manuscript to be clearer and stronger. Communication throughout the project was easy and responsive, and I always knew where things stood. Highly recommend her for anyone looking for a sharp, attentive copy editor.

Chet was a professional talent on so many levels and I could not have had a better experience. He made me feel safe and secure with our discussions, navigated me through the process, and offered very strategic advice and/or edits without making me feel pressured. We were able to have a warm yet professional relationship too which I think is very important for the end product. Chet is a strong recommend - his talent is incredible and without him, would not have had the confidence to bring thi...

I had an excellent experience working with Cyra on my book project. She translated the manuscript from English into German with great accuracy, maintaining the tone and intent perfectly throughout. Her turnaround time was impressively fast, and her communication was clear and professional at every stage. The pricing was fair for the high quality of work delivered. I’m very happy with the final result and would highly recommend her services to anyone looking for reliable and skilled translation.

Gary is incredibly easy to work with, and his suggestions always leave me with "why didn't I think of that?" This is our second collaboration, and I can't imagine any of my future books without him. He works quickly and consistently delivers more than promised. I'm looking forward to working with him again soon.
