Ceileigh delivered exactly the kind of conceptual editing I was looking for. Lots of things I was too close to the project to catch, lots of things I half-noticed but didn't act on until she caught them, too, (and lots of comments that simply made me feel seen as a writer). I'll likely hire her for my next project, too. Thanks, Ceileigh!

I had a great experience working with Ian on my book. He designed a really great cover and handled all of the formatting, and his work exceeded my expectations. Throughout the entire process, he was professional, very responsive, and incredibly helpful. It was clear how much effort and care he put into every detail. What I appreciated most was how comfortable he made me feel—he really listened, was open to feedback, and made the process feel smooth and collaborative. I truly enjoyed working ...

I am a psychologist, and I was very particular in using my intuition when reviewing editors' profiles to see who I thought would be a good fit. Catherine's profile led me to believe she personally invests in what she is doing, caring and motivated to give something to the world through her work. Catherine exceeded my hopes. My original content was strong, but too dense to keep readers engaged. She helped me streamline the book, maintaining it's essence and my voice while making it less taxing...

I really enjoyed working with Deborah on this project. She helped me take a look at what was working and not working. I wouldn’t be where I am today on my new manuscript if it wasn’t for her. I’m looking forward to working with Deborah again.

Jenny was absolutely amazing with my manuscript. She did an incredible job on my proofread and also helped me clean up unclear pieces of my memoir. I really enjoyed learning from Jenny and getting her perspective. I would hire her again in a heartbeat for proofreading, copyediting etc. She's the best!

Elena is a PR genius! She completely transformed our outreach and put together a stunning PR kit that captured our brand perfectly. Working with her was seamless, effective, and honestly, amazing. She is the absolute best at what she does. Her outreach strategy was precise, thoughtful, and yielded fantastic results. Her professionalism, creativity, and genuine passion for her work are unparalleled. If you have the chance to hire Elena, take it—she is simply the best!

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.

Tjaša was amazing to work with. She really understood my concept, was adaptive at making minor changes, and helped walk someone unfamiliar with the space (me) through the process.

Erin delivered beyond what I expected out of our engagement on so many levels. Firstly, she instantly recognized what I was trying to achieve with a very complex story structure. Then, she offered me a call to really understand my goals with my project, and later guided me on the kind of engagement needed to achieve my goals. When she delivered the outcome of our engagement, it was clear that she'd really immersed herself into the work, arming herself by (re)reading the works of masters whose...

Laurie Bernstein is an outstanding editor and professional in the publishing industry. Her credentials are beyond excellent, and she brings her authentic expertise to the work. She is meticulous, patient, and gracious. I handed her a manuscript that was riddled with errors and duplications. She sent me back a manuscript that provided clear directions for possible improvements, encouraged me to think deeply about my message and story, and to keep working toward excellence. Thanks to Laurie. I ...

Getting helpful advice from Vicky on how to market my books in the UK has been an amazing experience. Vicky certainly went the 'extra mile ' to ensure that I had all the information I needed to push my books out into the marketplace where they belong. Helpful and so full of useful ideas - these materials are giving me the assistance I needed. An real 'expert' helping others - well done, Vicky - thank you so much for your help.

Working with Patrick was an absolute joy. He was responsive and easy to communicate with, understood the project and created beautiful work well ahead of schedule. Without a doubt, I will reach out to him first for my next project. A consummate professional and talented artist.

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!

Claire is a writer's dream editor and proofreader. Her thorough attention to detail and responsiveness are reassuring for new authors like myself who value an expert's guidance and support. She also clearly read every word for meaning and clarity in addition to providing thoughtful comments and questions. I would work with her again without hesitation!

Mickey was exceptional! She took the concepts in my book and created a cover that speaks for itself. The joy, whimsy, and message come through clearly and are simply fun to look at. She was a fabulous collaborator and stayed with me as we honed the final concept to make the details truly shine. I will hire her again in a heartbeat! She is a gem.
