Simply put, if you want to work with an excellent editor, hire Jenna Blum. She is a consummate professional who provided the guidance I need to make sure my book will meet the highest standards. Her humanistic approach praises areas of strength, identifies issues, and offers superb suggestions to resolve those issues. During our Zoom meeting Jenna suggested I was coming up with the idea to improve my book. Nope. Her prompting and suggestions led me to those ideas. I feel exceptionally ho...

I'm the queen of the typos, have a problem with ....s and ,s, and Jennifer had all the right answers in her red pen. She was easy to work with and responsive. I couldn't be happier with her work product and her work ethic. I enjoyed working with her from my nervously handing over my book to her handing it back with clear, focused edits.

Cyndi went above and beyond as a book designer, typographer, and even stepped in to fix a few things that fell under the illustrator category, and I'm so grateful for her. She was beyond knowledgeable and talented - she took initiative, and was super sweet and professional. She was super patient with my perfectionism and was great with making changes that made my book look SO beautiful. I hope to work with her again!

Aimee is an editing rockstar! She is thorough, timely, and a great communicator. Her edits are clear, easy to incorporate, and provide useful explanation when helpful. She's my dream editor. Highly recommend!

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!

I cannot say enough good things about Yuliia and her team. The illustrations for my book were beyond anything I could have imagined. Yuliia is so kind, professional, and prompt with every response. The work was completed ahead of schedule on her end, and I truly will never go with anyone else again. I 100% recommend her!

Working with David was incredibly rewarding. I am a first-time author and he took the time to explain some core things, as well as doing an amazing job editing my work. I really appreciated his support and found him to be very responsive. Couldn't recommend him more highly.

I had a very positive experience working with Cathy. Her feedback was thoughtful, careful, and genuinely improved the clarity and structure of my manuscript. She was especially strong at identifying repetition and helping me tighten the work without losing my voice or the emotional tone of the book. Communication was clear and respectful throughout the process, and her notes showed real engagement with the material rather than surface-level edits. I always felt that the manuscript was being h...

Working with Daniel was a pleasure. His design was beautiful and captured exactly what I was hoping for. Whenever I asked for an edit to be made, he was responsive and happy to do it. When I had questions and needed clarification because this was my first book, he was there with both reassurance and confidence. He went above and beyond at the end of the project when I was very anxious about getting the book to print and made himself super available for last minute adjustments. I worked with b...

I had a great experience working with Joel on the illustrations for my middle grade chapter book. He was professional, easy to communicate with, and really thoughtful about bringing the characters and scenes to life. Joel did a fantastic job capturing the personality and tone of the story, and his illustrations added so much charm and fun to the book. He was also very open to feedback and quick to make adjustments whenever needed. I really appreciated how collaborative the whole process fel...

Eli is an outstanding editor and was an invaluable part of making my book stronger. He was thorough, honest, insightful, and delivered on time. He doesn’t pull punches—when something wasn’t working, he told me why and, more importantly, gave me practical ways to address the issue. He helped me address problems with plot holes, consistency, character development, pacing, emotional impact, and how to create stakes early and keep readers hooked. He also challenged me to develop an ending that w...

Working with Blair has been an excellent experience. As a first-time author I wasn’t sure what kind of editorial help my manuscript needed — Blair’s assessment answered that clearly and professionally. She genuinely engaged with the material, identified the real strengths of the manuscript, and gave honest actionable feedback without being discouraging. Her background in Christian publishing came through immediately — she understood the faith dimension of the book and respected its voice. I’m...

Working with Cathy was an absolute pleasure. She brought sharp editorial instincts to every manuscript, catching inconsistencies we had overlooked while preserving the author's voice throughout. Her turnaround time impressed me, efficient without ever feeling rushed or superficial. What stood out most was her communication style: clear, constructive, and always solution-oriented. When she flagged an issue, she came with suggestions rather than just problems. I would recommend her without hesi...

John is an excellent editor with a sharp eye for detail and structure. He approached my manuscript with care, clarity, and genuine professional insight. His line edits were precise, his comments were thoughtful, and he consistently elevated the quality of my writing without ever diluting my voice. Communication was smooth throughout the collaboration, deadlines were honoured, and he provided more value than promised. I wouldn’t hesitate to work with him again.

Tom was quite prompt, professional, thorough, and felt aligned with me in what I wanted for my book. I reviewed his work along with those of three others and found his touch to be the right level of improvement to the book without acting like he is paid per edit. His pricing was excellent, but the work was worth every penny. There was a fair balanced amount of edits and comments that were positive, encouraging, warning, advisory, and he caught things that I never would have seen, EVER. A++ hi...
