Working with Svitlana was one of the best decisions I made for my book launch. She didn't just design a beautiful cover — she built the entire visual identity of my brand. For my second book, Permission Granted: The Inner Work That Makes Everything Else Possible, Svitlana delivered: Front cover, back cover, and full wraparound layouts (paperback + hardcover) Kindle and ACX audiobook covers Complete A+ Content design for Amazon (all 5 modules — approved on first submission) 3D book mockups on...

I could not recommend Martha highly enough. I came to her with a chaotic passion project and not much understanding of the industry or editorial process, and she went above and beyond in helping me understand exactly what my novel needed. The editorial assessment she produced was exceptionally thorough, insightful, and delivered on time, offering great value for money. What stood out most was how deeply Martha engaged with the work. She cared about my book’s strengths, its potential, and its...

Working with C.J. was an exceptional experience. She approached my manuscript with discernment, compassion, and an evident respect for both my voice and the audience I hoped to serve. Her editorial feedback was thoughtful, comprehensive, and remarkably constructive. She identified opportunities to strengthen the manuscript while preserving the heart and purpose behind my writing. Her guidance helped me develop a more cohesive, substantive, and meaningful book. I am deeply grateful for the car...

Great feedback, quick and well explained. Shanika answered any follow-up questions I had and delivered sooner than expected.

I feel extremely fortunate to have come across David on the Reedsy site. I have been inspired, challenged, enlightened and encouraged by him when I really needed it. David has been fantastic in every way - both highly professional (on time for every call, reasonable deadlines that he always honors, clear notes and feedback) and also warm and personable. David has helped me think through and untangle numerous tricky areas of my manuscript, and offers solutions and insightful suggestions. ...

A pleasure to work with, very professional and all her edits were on point. Thank you!

Working with Charlie on the design of my book has been such a great experience. He really understood the feeling and identity I wanted the book to have and helped turn it into something polished, beautiful, and cohesive. He has a very strong eye for detail, and throughout the process he was thoughtful, patient, receptive to feedback, and genuinely committed to getting everything right. I especially appreciated how carefully he considered the overall look and feel of the book, making sure the...

Collette was an absolute gift to help bring my book to life. She took my vision and made it a reality. Collette brought ease to a process that can sometimes feel overwhelming and I can't recommend her enough. Her attentiveness, responsiveness and kindness went above and beyond. I am filled with gratitude.

Working with Blair has been an excellent experience. As a first-time author I wasn’t sure what kind of editorial help my manuscript needed — Blair’s assessment answered that clearly and professionally. She genuinely engaged with the material, identified the real strengths of the manuscript, and gave honest actionable feedback without being discouraging. Her background in Christian publishing came through immediately — she understood the faith dimension of the book and respected its voice. I’m...

Working with Kelly has been an extremely valuable experience. After months of writing and rewriting my manuscript, I had become too close to it to recognize repetition, structural weaknesses and patterns that were affecting the flow. Kelly was thoughtful, honest and constructive. She identified where the manuscript could be tightened and strengthened without trying to change my story or replace my voice. Acting on her notes has made a considerable difference, and I believe the manuscript i...

I cannot say enough positive things about working with Kate Juniper. Having no experience in the book-writing realm, I was unsure what to expect. What I received was tenfold more than I could ever have imagined. Kate has a unique ability to connect on such a deeply emotional level. She made me feel safe to make mistakes, to learn, and to be vulnerable in every aspect of learning how to write. She possesses a rare kind of patience that is thoughtful and kind. Her extensive expertise in writing...

As a first time author, Penelope made the editing process seamless. Communication was professional and prompt, her feedback was excellent and changes to the manuscript really added a sense of polish and professionalism found in professionally released books. She also helped guide me in the process of next steps, which was beyond the scope of our work which shows how much she cares and takes a personal interest in the success of your project. I would highly recommend working with Penelope, and...

Couldn't have asked for a better, more professional translator. Cyra was punctual and very responsive to requests. The reception to the translated work has been better than I ever could have imagined. Will definitely use her, again.

This guy is the bee's knees. Understood my descriptions perfectly, like he was seeing right into my brain. Fun, and badass style. Has a real knack for drawing monsters. Professional and communicative and a cool dude. No notes.

I cannot recommend Rachel highly enough. Once again, her structural edit was outstanding. I’ve worked with Rachel multiple times now, and that continuity makes such a difference—she knows my voice, my style, and the heart of my stories, and she edits in a way that enhances my voice rather than reshaping it. Her feedback is meticulous, thoughtful, and deeply insightful. Every suggestion strengthens the narrative, sharpens the emotional arc, and helps the story truly sing. Rachel has an incred...
