This is my fourth project working with Lucia, and I can attest to the absolute professionalism of both her editing and proofreading. Thorough, timely, detailed, consistent, constructive and encouraging ... she's everything you want in an editor/proofreader. Highly recommend!

Working with Hannah has been one of the best decisions I’ve made for my book! From the very beginning, she was thoughtful, thorough, and deeply invested in both the story and my growth as a writer. Her editorial letter was incredibly insightful and pushed me in all the right ways. She has a rare ability to see the heart of a story, identify what’s already working, and then clearly articulate how to strengthen it without ever making you feel discouraged or overwhelmed. Her line edits were de...

Edward is patient, kind and professional, and his phenomenal portfolio speaks for itself. If I clearly knew what I wanted, he took the idea and made it look incredible. If I wasn't sure, he came up with great solutions. I couldn't be happier with my book's cover and interior art, and can't wait to publish soon. Thank you!

i thought i had written a workable book. Michelle's editing highlighted where I was wrong. Thoroughly professional, a great piece of editing. Had helpful suggestions to complete the work.

Jude gave me a professional, insightful and useful report which has given me the confidence and resources to take my project to the next level.

All I can say is wow! Mark went above and beyond and I am incredibly happy with my cover. He was a consummate professional from the outset. His response to my request for bids was another level compared to his competitors who also responded. He understood my book and what I was trying to convey. The cover design did an amazing job communicating that. I used to be a graphic designer and so I was pretty nitpicky about minor changes. Mark handled my requests with grace and speed. We had a seamle...

I had the pleasure of working with Cathy Morrison on three of my children’s books, and I highly recommend her to any author looking for a talented and reliable illustrator. From the start, she demonstrated a strong ability to understand both the heart of the story and the visual tone I was hoping to achieve. Her illustration style is warm, engaging, and beautifully suited for children’s books, and she consistently brought my ideas to life in a way that felt even better than I had imagined. ...

Candace exceeded every expectation I had for our collaboration. The maps and sketches she created for my book matched my genre's tone and feel requirements to perfection. I would go as far to say her art work improves my story! It's a really good feeling to work with such a talented artist as Candace. I'm looking forward to working with Candace again for book II & III of my trilogy. My dream will be when I can collaborate with Candace to do the maps for every chapter of my up-coming travel...

Hannah is remarkably gifted in her creativity and ability to adapt to the genre in question. I've had no issues and only good experiences with Hannah. We were able to sort out our time differences (being on different sides of the globe) and align our busy schedules for meetings.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Working with Eva Maria Dietrich Carreño has been one of the most impactful decisions I’ve made—not just for my manuscript, but for my life. As an editor, Eva brings an extraordinary level of insight, care, and precision to the work. She doesn’t just review your writing—she truly sees it. She understands the heart of what you’re trying to create and helps you elevate it without ever compromising your voice. If anything, she encourages you to go bigger, bolder, and deeper into your trut...

You won't find a more talented, professional, or more responsive illustrator than James. I gave James all 5 stars without hesitation because there wasn't one aspect of the project I didn't love. Like many of you that'll read this, my search for an illustrator was long and exhaustive. I looked locally and online, gathering samples and quotes from anyone I could. I eventually got in contact with James, and from day one could see his enthusiasm and experience not only through his previous work,...

It is such a pleasure to write a review for Jennifer Stimson—because oh my goodness, she is EXCEPTIONAL! I was initially drawn to Jennifer because of her excellent reviews. Then, when I saw samples of her work and started to communicate with her, I knew I was in great hands! First and foremost, I’m impressed with her talent – her artistic choices; the stylistic elements she added to my pages; her page layouts and font choices that fit the theme of my book; the polish she added to the formatt...

As a first-time author, (The Why of Sports) it dawned on me that I would soon need a cover design for my book. Luckily I stumbled upon Reedsy then found Sebastian. I really didn't have an idea about a cover design, but had a hunch he would come up with something wonderful. Indeed, he did, showing me a number of great designs before I settled on one. He then led me through the rest of the process, patiently showing me option after option until it was just perfect. I have come to know a lot of ...

Grace is amazing. I feel like anything else I follow up with will lessen this fact. She is quick. She is dependable. She's encouraging but also critical (in a fair way) and is easy to get a hold of. I will definitely be knocking on her door when my next project is ready.

Shanika is an amazing editor!! She's bright and kind. Her editorial letter was incredibly helpful and paired with her comments on the manuscript itself helped me take my novel to the next level. I highly recommend her!
