This is my second time working with Harrold-Vincent Villanueva and couldn't be happier with the work he did, both times. I constantly get praise over the covers he's done for me, which I don't think I need to tell you is invaluable for an author. As much as the old saying gets tossed around, people can and do judge a book by its cover. Not only is he a talented, hardworking artist, but you can really tell he cares about the covers he puts out and the stories they're trying to tell. I'll b...

Working with Molly as my developmental editor was the BEST thing I could have possibly done for my book. Her feedback was a game-changer. She has a rare talent for seeing both the big picture AND providing surgical insights that, together, were the secret sauce to elevate my messy manuscript into the book it deserved to be. She was also lovely to work with: warm but honest. Even her harshest notes always felt infused with her genuine belief in the story. I am so grateful for Molly's partnersh...

Working with Leslie was one of the best decisions I made during the development of my first book, Signal Integrity. I hired Leslie to complete both the copy edit and the final proofread, and she exceeded my expectations at every stage. Leslie brought an extraordinary level of care and thoughtfulness to the manuscript. Her edits strengthened the writing, improved clarity and consistency, and helped me address several important structural and formatting issues. Just as importantly, she never t...

My initial thoughts after receiving Miriam's feedback on my query package? Wow. The entire experience was so much more than I expected. She went above and beyond to make my query letter shine. I deeply appreciated her editorial suggestions and sharp storytelling instinct, which helped me sharpen my manuscript far beyond the first 50 pages. She's direct and honest, but also supportive and encouraging. I felt like she grasped the entire project and gave comprehensive feedback across all piece...

Ross’s judgment is spot-on—both on what works and what doesn’t. He’s picked up on things I’d become blind to, which is exactly what I needed from a fresh set of eyes. At the same time, there are several places where his suggested solutions are very close to the ones I’d been circling myself. That combination makes me feel he’s really in tune with the project and understands what the book is trying to do.

Elayne is a wonder to work with. She took the dreaded synopsis project and made the revision process feel easy. Her analysis was thoughtful and precise. She asked insightful questions that helped clarify what truly needed to be included (and what didn’t) to tell the story effectively in such a limited space. Her line edits were masterful. And what's more, I also working on a tight timeline, and she delivered everything ahead of schedule. An absolute pleasure. Thank you, Elayne!

Barbara was amazing to work with! She made the process easy, her edits were extremely helpful and detailed, and she even completed the project ahead of schedule. Looking forward to the next project together!

We loved working with Veronica Scott on our book "Beyond Better Data: What Actually Changes Health Care?". It was an outstanding experience from start to finish. Veronica expertly handled both the book's typesetting and cover design, transforming our manuscript into a polished, professional publication that exceeded our expectations. She ensured that every page was clean, readable, and visually appealing while creating a cover that perfectly captured the message and professionalism of the bo...

Deborah did an amazing job proofreading my middle grade fantasy novel! She caught things that went unnoticed during previous revisions, explained why she was correcting what she did with references, and delivered on time. Her constructive feedback has not only made my book better, but I feel like a better writer for it!

Elena is a PR genius! She completely transformed our outreach and put together a stunning PR kit that captured our brand perfectly. Working with her was seamless, effective, and honestly, amazing. She is the absolute best at what she does. Her outreach strategy was precise, thoughtful, and yielded fantastic results. Her professionalism, creativity, and genuine passion for her work are unparalleled. If you have the chance to hire Elena, take it—she is simply the best!

Hannah was great!! She knows story and loves talking story. She went above and beyond to make sure my script was solid.

Collette was such a pleasure to work with and she translated my design ideas beautifully. She was very patient and accomodating with my revision requests and she made sure the final design was exactly to my liking. I’m so happy with the final design and would absolutely work with her again.

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.

I was captivated by Alena's art immediately, and thrilled she was available to work on a custom cover for my novel. From beginning to end, working with Alena was a pleasure. She's extremely responsive and professional, and her art is so authentically original. I would work with Alena again in a heartbeat.

Jaime was great! She is easy to work with and responds quickly. She made sure to follow up with me ahead of the date the work was supposed to start to see if I had any questions and confirm the timeline. Her edits are thoughtful and professional. She truly wants to see her client's books succeed and even took the time to review my book blurb and second epilogue, which I didn't finish until later on. I would definitely recommend her as an editor.
