Working with Daniel was one of the best decisions I made during the production of my book. He went far beyond what I initially expected from a formatter and became an important creative partner in bringing the final book to life. The interior of the book turned out beautifully, and much of that is the result of Daniel’s exceptional eye for design. He selected a theme and visual direction that perfectly complemented the story and gave the book the polished, professional appearance I was hopin...

Working with C.J. Redwine was an exceptional experience from beginning to end. She went above and beyond what was originally promised, and the level of dedication, expertise, and care she brought to my manuscript exceeded my expectations. C.J. was incredibly responsive, supportive, and thorough throughout the entire editing process. Her edits and comments did far more than correct grammar, punctuation, and sentence structure—they helped me see my manuscript from a completely different perspe...

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...

Working with Lia was such an incredible experience. My memoir manuscript has evolved from jumbled, stream-of-consciousness storytelling to more streamlined, vivid, and concise. Given that I'm a first-time author, I wanted to work with someone who would give honest feedback while also highlighting what I'd done well already. Lia went above and beyond to provide insight on how I could make my writing better and left positive commentary throughout, too. She always responded quickly to inquiries,...

I can't recommend Sam highly enough. His editorial assessment of my thriller was everything I needed - thorough, insightful, and delivered with the perfect balance of challenge and encouragement. Sam treated me as a fellow writer rather than just a client. He gave me confidence in the strengths of my manuscript while fearlessly challenging the structural issues that needed addressing. His critique of the ending has definitely given me work to do, but he was absolutely right to pick up on it,...

Kellyn was very thorough with my manuscript. She read through it and offered very thoughtful suggestions to bring certain parts to life for the reader. She was very responsive to my messages and checked in regularly. We also had a Zoom call to discuss the book, where I asked her questions and shared ideas, and she responded in real time. It was a great experience working with her, and I look forward to working with her again on future projects. I highly recommend her to any author who wants a...

Sarah did an amazing job on my manuscript. Not only did she spot typos, she identified phrases that were mismatched for a particular generation or geographical location. She's thorough, attentive, and professional. Without a doubt, I'll ask her to edit my next work. I'm truly grateful for her expertise and talent. My novel is much improved because of her input. Thank you, Sarah. D. M. Reed

Anna was terrific to work with. She laid out the expected timeline and delivered. Her notes were thoughtful, concise, and, most importantly, helped improve the quality of the work. She didn't waste time with empty compliments but instead dove right into the manuscript and made it better. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing a developmental edit on a work of non-fiction.

Working with Emma was an absolutely phenomenal experience. She is kind, responsive, and wonderfully honest. What sets Emma apart is the time she spends upfront getting to know your vision. She tailored her feedback directly to our goals, and because she built such a strong foundation of trust, her critiques were easy to handle and immediately elevated our story. On top of her exceptional editorial eye, Emma has an elite understanding of the traditional publishing industry. Thanks to her, we a...

Dom has a long list of excellent reviews for good reason. He is the consummate professional, an active listener, a coach, and a cheerleader, imploring you to achieve better results. AI cannot replicate his counsel. 6 stars!

Absolutely lovely to work with! Brought my characters to life with care and detail I didn't think possible!

Sarah is the platonic ideal of an editor. As a writer, it can be difficult to navigate feedback while trying to stay true to your ~artistic vision~. The beauty of Sarah's editing work is that it is so in-depth you can just feel she is giving her all to trying to understand what the book is trying to do and being completely honest (in the kindest way) about what it needs to get there. You can also feel a big, beating heart at the center of her feedback: her love for books and good storytelling...

Working with Allan was one of the best decisions I made for my book. I came to him with a vision, a lot of ideas, and a manuscript that meant a great deal to me. He listened to what I was trying to accomplish and then took it in a creative direction beyond my expectations. He didn't just design the interior of Design Schooled - he elevated it. Allan is exceptionally talented, responsive, and always delivered on time. Throughout the process, I felt completely confident that my project was in...

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.

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 ...
