The professional experience of editing my first narrative non-fiction manuscript was very enjoyable and successful. After an initial video chat to get to know each other, the work began with clear deadlines and progress payments established. Although at first I was naturally concerned about how the process would unfold, I was quickly reassured by Shaun's competence and willingness to both discuss and listen to all my input. It was truly a collaborative process and the outcome has been a tight...

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...

Angela did a phenomenal job editing my novel. Her notes were sharp, thoughtful, and consistently elevated the manuscript in ways that felt both intuitive and expertly guided. She has an exceptional grasp of voice, pacing, and clarity, and her suggestions around narrative consistency were exactly what the book needed. Her line edits were precise, her developmental comments insightful, and the whole experience showed me why she’s so highly regarded. I’m incredibly grateful for the care she bro...

If I could give ten stars I would. Deborah's responsiveness and eagle eye for detail caught things that at least five other people did not. She helped me tie up loose ends I forgot about and after applying her edits, I sincerely believe she made my book better. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

This was my second book working with Mozelle. She is fantastic. I am never in the dark. I always know what to expect with her because of her great communication. I have learned so much with her. She doesn't just send back files and leave you to figure out anything. Her explanations are extremely thorough, and I really feel good with each interaction. I will hire her every time if I am able.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I cannot recommend Allan highly enough. After an incredibly difficult experience with my original publisher, I needed someone I could trust to prepare my book professionally for publication. From the very beginning, Allan has been knowledgeable, patient and exceptionally supportive. As a first-time author, much of the publishing and print production process was completely new to me. Allan took the time to explain every stage clearly, answered my many questions with patience, and neve...

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

Abi is terrific! She understood what I was asking for from the start, and really delivered in a professional, responsive, and warm way. Her editorial assessment was clear, thoughtful and thorough, and our Zoom follow-up conversation gave me further direction and motivation. Before working with Abi, I felt like I was groping around in the dark, and now I feel confident about my next steps. I’m truly grateful for her insight and guidance.

Grace is amazing. Full stop. Her feedback and suggestions have pushed my manuscript into the "I think I might get agented" category (not kidding). She identified places where the emotional beats were missing or where my characters were overreacting. She asked thoughtful questions about my world building that highlighted areas of confusion and weakness. For example... she left me a comment saying "I don't really understand how money works in this world." You know why she didn't understand...

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.

Ceileigh was an absolute pleasure to collaborate with; she went above and beyond, and her notes ended up going into more depth than I expected, which is great. She made sure to explain why certain things aren't working and gave concrete but broad enough suggestions on how to fix certain things that I still felt like I had plenty of room to address the notes with my own voice. I love how clear and communicative she was throughout the process, sending a list of questions ahead of jumping into ...

Elizabeth is absolutely fantastic to work with. She was timely, thoughtful, professional, kind, engaging, bright and extraordinarily helpful. She is superb at what she does, and it was an absolute pleasure to work with her. I am already looking forward to working with her again!

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.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Exceptional Editor — Above and Beyond Every Step of the Way Working with Patricia has been one of the highlights of my publishing journey. She went truly above and beyond in every aspect of the editing process. Not only was she incredibly thorough and thoughtful, but she was deeply involved from beginning to end. She read my manuscript more times than I ever expected an editor would — and each pass brought new insights, clarity, and improvements that elevated the entire book. Pat...

Veronica Scott was a pleasure to work with on NeuroCARE™ and Transformative Coaching: Serving Every Generation. She took a complex manuscript with frameworks, figures, and multiple rounds of detailed corrections, and turned it into a polished, professional book. The cover is striking. It captures the NeuroCARE™ message and looks right on a shelf. The interior is clean and consistent throughout. She worked through my final corrections checklist carefully and delivered print-ready files for KD...
