Mamie has simplified the process of marketing and made the process a lot less intimidating. When I was first seeking out a professional to assist me, I was afraid I would have to do it in a way I wasn't comfortable with yet at that time, but I never once felt pushed into any avenue that I didn't want to do. She really has taken a load off my shoulders and I've come out of it knowing a lot more than I ever would on my own.

a book is a process. the process begins long before the idea of a book even enters life. who you choose to do your book, is a form of excavation. it requires digging, sorting, leaning into relationships. for me, it is and it is not about a finished product. a great unveiling has taken place with this collaboration with Nvard. you will not find a more highly creative person with intense focus. not only is she intelligent and talented, but an artist who has the strength and ability to b...

Joel is an excellent artist and consummate professional. His quote clearly outlined exactly what he would provide for the agreed upon price and he fully delivered. Even after the fact, Joel continues to provide support and is going to help with with the cover uploads to KDP and IngramSpark. I will be working with Joel again in the future. If you are looking for a cover artist, I highly recommend him!

Krista was a dream to work with on this project! She was proactive in her communication and even completed the project ahead of the initial due date WITH a holiday in the middle of the timeframe. I would love to work with her again on upcoming projects and would recommend her to anyone looking for an honest professional editorial review.

Mine was a difficult project - review the sequel of an unpublished first novel. One other person described the project as 'the literary equivalent of surgical separation of Siamese twins'. That said, I was blown away by the quality of the output I got from Elayne. Her comments were accurate, insightful, helpgul and nuanced. I have worked with a number of editors, and while all have been good, this was a different level. It was extremely helpful to get the perspective of a multiply-published...

Candace was an absolute pleasure to work with! She was quick, communicative, and so easy to collaborate with—she made the entire process seamless from start to finish. Her art is absolutely stunning. She brought my world to life in a way that genuinely exceeded my expectations, and I couldn’t be happier with the final map. I would hire her again in a heartbeat!

We are first-time authors and have never worked with an illustrator before, so we honestly weren't sure what to expect or even what we were supposed to do throughout the process. From the very beginning, Kateryna was incredibly patient, professional and understanding. She took the time to answer all of our questions and worked with us until the test illustration was what we hoped for. Everything was completed in a very timely manner and we are excited to continue working with her on our fi...

Agustin was extremely professional I was really impressed by the quality of his work and the completion of the translation within the time frame established even beating the date by a week. His work was extraordinary to say the least he did an excellent work overall. I can highly recommend his work.

Working with Ameesha has been an absolute pleasure. From the very first conversation I knew she was "the one". It was clear straight away that she totally “got” the project - the tone, the ambition, the structure - and she’s been exactly the right person to undertake the editorial review. Her feedback was thoughtful, constructive and always rooted in what will make the book clearer, stronger and more effective for readers. She strikes the right balance of offering honest critique while makin...

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 Charlie on the design of my book has been such a great experience. He really understood the feeling and identity I wanted the book to have and helped turn it into something polished, beautiful, and cohesive. He has a very strong eye for detail, and throughout the process he was thoughtful, patient, receptive to feedback, and genuinely committed to getting everything right. I especially appreciated how carefully he considered the overall look and feel of the book, making sure the...

Working with Charlotte was an amazing experience from start to finish. She truly brought my vision to life and helped shape my children’s book into something even more beautiful than I imagined. She paid close attention to every detail, especially the emotional tone, representation, and overall feel I wanted the story and illustrations to have. I felt genuinely heard throughout the entire process. Charlotte was incredibly patient, responsive, and open to feedback. She made revisions thoughtf...

Working with Michael was an exceptional experience from start to finish. He approached my manuscript with balance of technical precision and genuine care for the story being told. What stood out most was his ability to engage deeply with the intent of the work, not just the mechanics. His editorial feedback was thoughtful, detailed, and respectful. Michael’s communication was clear, encouraging and professional throughout the process. He didn’t just edit the book, he collaborated with it. As...

Christina delivered an excellent edit of my memoir. Her comments were precise, constructive, and consistently improved the clarity and rhythm of the writing. She respected the tone and intent of the work and offered suggestions that strengthened it without imposing her own voice. Communication was reliable and the process was handled professionally from start to finish. I’m very pleased with the result and would recommend her without hesitation.

I am so grateful that I was able to find Philip Bashe to review my manuscript. After reviewing his previous body of work - he was the only person I wanted to provide a copy/line edit for my book. He provided a thorough and exhaustive edit not only on time - but actually two weeks ahead of time to accommodate my own schedule - allowing me to finish my work during a natural break in my own life. More importantly than simply completing the work early, however, he poured an incredible level of...
