I loved working with Nicolae. In fact, we already have plans to do three more projects together in the coming year. I'm even considering getting a poster of the cover made to hang above my desk. It's exactly what I was looking for! Can't wait until I have whole series done.

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.

Working with Donna on *The Sands of Time* was one of the best decisions I made for my manuscript. From the beginning, she was thoughtful, professional, and incredibly insightful. Her feedback was detailed, encouraging, and always respectful of my voice as an author. Donna has a remarkable ability to strengthen a story without changing what makes it unique. She challenged me to dig deeper, improve my writing, and make the manuscript the strongest it could be, all while making the editing pr...

Nicola was so great to work with, both friendly and professional; she really helped me with my project and gave me feedback and encouragement. As it was my first time writing a manuscript, I felt a bit lost and overwhelmed with all the steps involved, but she broke them down and made it so much more manageable to get to the next stage. She was also so quick at getting back to any messages and completing the overall collaboration. Would highly recommend her for anyone starting on their book-wr...

Working with Evelina was once again a thoroughly professional experience from start to finish. Communication was clear, reliable, and responsive throughout the entire project. Every deliverable arrived on time and in exactly the quality I had hoped for — both the cover design and the full interior layout were executed with great attention to detail and a strong sense of craftsmanship. Even multiple rounds of corrections were handled with patience, precision, and a consistently positive attitu...

Working with Mallory Bingham has been a genuinely uplifting experience. From the very beginning, she brought a level of care, detail, and positivity that far exceeded my expectations. What impressed me most wasn’t just her editing skill, which is top-notch, but her dedication after the job was officially done. Mallory continued to offer help, encouragement, and insightful pointers to improve my work. She brought out the best in my writing without ever overshadowing my voice. Her thoughtful f...

I have sent Sam three children's stories to date. He makes each scene more lively and suggest ideas that I had never thought of. Sam makes editing a stress free process!

Emily was a complete joy to work with. She was prompt, communicative, and exceptionally organized throughout the entire process. Her attention to detail was impeccable, and she made what could have been a complex formatting project feel seamless from start to finish. I always felt informed, supported, and confident that the book was in capable hands. I would happily work with her again and highly recommend her to any author looking for a skilled and reliable formatter.

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.

I congratulate myself for hiring Lisa to write an editorial assessment of my self-help manuscript for fellow people with disabilities. My interaction with her were professional and warm. As part of her recommendations, she confirmed some of my instincts about what might have to be reworked, and some new aspects that I couldn't see for having been so close to my work for a long time, This helped me decide that teaming up with an editor who has more distance from it, and all the writing and pub...

I think the first of many amazing attributes of Nathan is that he is selective about those with whom he will collaborate. Even though he was one of the five persons I pitched to help me, and he said yes, after that he really did his homework on me, to get a sense for me, and make sure I was legitimate (especially important for the type of work I published). He has the accolades and prior experience in my genre (climbing, adventure) and this was evident from his various published works. Fro...

Working with Ivy on my debut novel was an incredible experience. She was fast and responsive, but more importantly, she was deeply "in" the manuscript with me. Her attention to detail is extraordinary - she caught things I never would have spotted, and her feedback on everything from sentence flow to overall style was spot on. I consistently found myself thinking "that's absolutely right!" What really stood out was how intuitively she grasped my voice. Ivy didn’t just edit the book - I felt...

Working with Josiah was an exceptional experience. As a Latino author writing a novel deeply rooted in Mesoamerican mythology and cultural perspectives, I was genuinely impressed by how well he understood my world, my characters, and the voice behind the story. He approached the manuscript with respect, clarity, and a remarkable ability to read not just the text, but the cultural heartbeat beneath it. His feedback was thoughtful, constructive, and delivered with kindness. He identified struct...

Taylor is very professional, with incredible work ethic and attention to detail, she gave life to the project with all the experience and knowledge she brought to the table. By far the best editor I have ever work with : )

What a great experience this was! As a first-time author, it far exceeded my expectations. I didn’t know what to expect, or just how much her guidance would elevate my manuscript. She led me through the process with kindness and skill—not only helping improve the book itself, but helping me grow as a writer. She genuinely cared about both my story and my success as an author. Highly recommended.
