If you are an author looking for a Spanish translator, look no further than Olga. I hired her to translate The Humility You Want and the World Needs, and the experience was exceptional from beginning to end. As an author, you want a translator who understands that the words on the page are only part of the work. Olga captured the voice, tone, and heart of the message and delivered it beautifully in Spanish. Her communication was timely and professional throughout the entire process, which ma...

Working with Rachel on BIG A: Affordable Housing was one of the best decisions I made as a first-time author. I came into this process knowing my subject matter, but not knowing all the ins and outs of turning that knowledge into a polished, professional book. Rachel guided me through every step. She was far more than an editor. She made thoughtful suggestions that strengthened the book while respecting my voice and what I wanted BIG A to be. She helped me understand formatting, organization...

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.

Raul was extremely easy to work with. Very quick to respond to any question or concern that I had. His concepts for my cover were well thought out and absolutely beautiful. It was difficult to pick one from the five he presented. I can't recommend him highly enough.

With Travis you're getting a true pro and - importantly - candor. His feedback is direct, honest, and fair and immensely helpful whether looking at minor copy edits, structural emphasis, or the big picture of storytelling. He's got a great eye for what can take the story to the next level and I'm confident that he significantly elevated not just my work but my understanding of the craft.

Working with Jessica was an incredible experience from start to finish. She brought the world of my story to life with warmth, emotion, and professionalism, and the final artwork exceeded my expectations. Her communication was clear, thoughtful, and collaborative throughout the entire process. She listened carefully to creative direction while also offering strong artistic instincts that elevated the book beyond what I imagined. Every spread feels cohesive and intentional, and she handled sym...

Working with Shenny was absolutely wonderful! She was very organized, did an excellent job getting a feel for exactly what I wanted for my website redesign, was very responsive to feedback, and delivered a beautiful website that I'm very excited about. I can't recommend her enough!

This is my fourth time working with Jen and I've already booked her for my next project. Jen is a dream to work with. She provides, open, honest feedback in a timely manner, all while making you feel empowered. I love writing and I love it even more with an editor like Jen.

Eli is an outstanding editor and was an invaluable part of making my book stronger. He was thorough, honest, insightful, and delivered on time. He doesn’t pull punches—when something wasn’t working, he told me why and, more importantly, gave me practical ways to address the issue. He helped me address problems with plot holes, consistency, character development, pacing, emotional impact, and how to create stakes early and keep readers hooked. He also challenged me to develop an ending that w...

Michele was efficient, pleasant and did outstanding work! Highly recommended! Thank you!

Bryony did a wonderful job reading over my script and providing great feedback!

Rachel absolutely nailed everything! She was extremely communicative, very friendly, and overall just so fun to work with. The cover art she delivered was incredible and feels as if it were just plucked from my head. I literally could not be happier with it. I cannot wait to work with her again on the rest of this series! I highly recommend Rachel for her cover art, you'd be making a wonderful choice to add her to your book team.

Working with Nina Bruhns was a fantastic learning experience from beginning to end, and one I would recommend without hesitation to any writer, but especially to debut authors finding their footing. As a first-time novelist, I wasn't entirely sure what professional editorial feedback would look like or how it would feel to receive it. Nina understood exactly where I was in the writing process and met me there with patience, insight, and genuine encouragement. She provided two invaluable doc...

This was my second time working with Blair on a project, and she has since edited both of my books. I truly value her feedback, attention to detail, and thoughtful suggestions throughout the editing process. She is prompt, professional, and accountable with deadlines, which made the entire experience seamless. Overall, this was another wonderful experience, and I’m so grateful to have had Blair’s expertise along the way. I’m excited to publish again, and I have her to thank for helping bring...

I'd like to extend my immense gratitude to Janet for her excellent editorials, most encouraging guidance, and for serving as a sounding board through my debut authorship journey. She deserves more than 5 stars!
