I am delighted to share my experience working Eleanor as editor, whose professionalism, insight, and dedication made an extraordinary difference in bringing my manuscript to publication readiness. From the outset, their communication was clear, timely, and highly organized. Deadlines were consistently met, and I always felt confident that my work was in capable and committed hands. Their responsiveness and willingness to engage in thoughtful discussion ensured that every stage of the process ...

Fantastic translation of my book. Professional. Quick-working. Easy to communicate with. Would definitely recommend to anyone who needs Spanish translation work done.

Janet reinforced my suspicions and offered a clear and honest voice in her content analysis. She provided professional critiques, and I highly suggest her as an editor.

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.

I have really enjoyed working with Laura. The feedback I received was extremely detailed, insightful and constructive, while also being kind and encouraging. Her critique gave me a far clearer understanding of picture book structure and the editing process, as well as valuable direction on how to strengthen my current manuscript. Laura was incredibly responsive throughout the process, with fast replies, regular updates and thoughtful communication which made me feel very reassured as someone...

Jamie went above and beyond! I am looking forward to working together with her again in the future.

There is no better illistrator that I could ever hope to find than Shaun Friend. His work is masterful, beautiful, breath taking. He is also easy to work with. He was responsive to all my imputs and all the illistrations were completed on time.

Working with Jane Simmonds, really made a difference in my writing. She is kind, professional, timely, and gives really honest feedback, that I found to be supportive. These pages and works we put out, usually come from the heart, and to have that balance between editing for larger groups, and supportive feedback is priceless. I would highly recommend working with Jane. With Aloha, Author E.O. Worth

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!

Nina is an incredible editor. She goes above and beyond to make sure she knows exactly who you are as a writer and what goals you set out to achieve— to the extent that I can believe she is as invested in my story as I am. Feedback is clearly designed to help you achieve, and each critique well justified. Nina has a clear extensive knowledge of the literary industry, and will be honest about where your writing stands in the market. Her work is delivered in a timely manner. As a new writer, I ...

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 ...

Brooke is incredible! She has taken my writing to a level that I didn’t know was possible. Working with her has been nothing short of amazing. I’m very grateful for her expertise. I now have writing that I am confident putting out for the world to see.

Working with Erin has been an absolute joy. She is a truly great professional — thoughtful, insightful, and incredibly thorough. Her editorial feedback on The Brayhill Chronicles was clear, constructive, and full of care. Erin managed to highlight exactly what needed refining while keeping my confidence in the story intact. She gave me more than one real lightbulb moment — those “of course!” insights that instantly make everything click. What I appreciated most was her ability to point out th...

Kat is a fantastic editor. Knowledgable, insightful, and positive when it comes to making suggestions for enhancement in a constructive, concise, and considered way. She clearly lays out her approach and outlines the timeline, which she delivered against ahead of deadline. She was responsive and really helpful when considering options and I really valued her professional opinion and perspective. Thank you Kat, it's been great working with you.
