Where beautiful
books
are made

I am quite early on in the process of writing my first book. Lots of ideas. A couple of chapters and an outline. Cat gave great advice both and structured feedback that immediately helped me develop the ‘fuzzy’ parts and strengthen the parts already created. She kept in touch throughout. I really enjoyed the experience and will be back in touch with her in the future - I just need to get writing!

Jordan was excellent to work with, and often went over the top to deliver the highest quality work. His style is amazing, but more than that, he worked hard to understand my story and match the art with the book's genre and themes. We tweaked details and went through multiple examples almost every step along the way, and I had a lot of fun seeing the progress. Jordan has a real eye for detail and balance, providing a professional quality to the cover that is so impressive. Not only did Jordan...

Patsy produced such a gorgeous design for my upper middle-grade historical novel! This is a challenging category to illustrate because covers need to show the book is for young people without looking too childish, and showcase the historical setting while still looking "cool" to tween readers. Patsy took the time to read my manuscript, research the culture and then produced a design that exactly captured the atmosphere of the book. Over the weeks that we worked together, she was consistently...

This was my first experience working with an editor. Until then, writing had always been a private pursuit, something I did quietly, for myself. After a few self-publishing efforts, I finally had a project I believed in deeply, one I hoped could reach a much wider audience. Kara’s feedback was so detailed and thorough that it felt like someone had flipped a light switch. Suddenly, I saw my work with fresh eyes. She didn’t just understand my voice and vision. She tuned into the places I had t...

Very user friendly and easy to work with

Really enjoyed working with Scott! About a month after we worked together on my query letter, I signed with a literary agent - can't give a better rec than that!

It's hard to imagine a better editor or a better editorial experience than I've had with Lisa. Her attention to every detail is phenomenal, and her thoughtful suggestions made for a better book in every way. Highly recommended!

Janan is a fantastic book coach. She demonstrates strong range to understand complicated projects and concepts. Her communication skills make the work efficient, and easier to understand.

I’m a new author, and I came to Jennifer with a 170,000-word manuscript. I knew it was too long, and honestly, I had written it more for myself than for anyone else. Before I went any further with it, I wanted an independent and honest perspective from someone who wasn’t just going to tell me what I wanted to hear. What I really wanted to know was: Is there actually a book here that someone else would want to read? Jennifer gave me exactly what I was looking for. Her developmental letter was...

Working with Tina was an exceptional experience. Her editing was precise, thoughtful, and incredibly efficient — she delivered the project much earlier than expected and with outstanding quality. She understood my writing instantly, improved clarity without changing my voice, and formatted the entire book in a clean, professional APA style. I especially appreciated her suggestions regarding visuals and structure, which showed how deeply she understood the material. Tina’s communication was ...

I hired Savannah to do a developmental edit on my manuscript. The thought of finding someone to edit my work was intimidating, but Savannah came highly recommended, and it took only one conversation to know she would be the right person to collaborate with. As I write this review, I wish nothing more than to amplify the praise that others have shared. She took exceptional care of my manuscript, and provided invaluable feedback. She was easy to communicate with and provided flexibility in se...

Working with Patrick was an absolute joy. He was responsive and easy to communicate with, understood the project and created beautiful work well ahead of schedule. Without a doubt, I will reach out to him first for my next project. A consummate professional and talented artist.

Not only did I enjoy working with Nathan on my project, but I was also impressed by the quality of his work. He took the time to understand what I was looking for in a product and have meetings plenty of options to choose from. I will definitely be working with Nathan in the future.

Amanda's work was incredible and invaluable to the completion of my manuscript. She was professional, efficient and an excellent communicator. Without a doubt the best editor I have ever collaborated with!

I worked with Maxwell to prepare a non-fiction book proposal. I am very happy with the collaboration and look forward to working with Maxwell again as this project develops. 1. Maxwell's feedback on my proposal was thorough, thoughtful, and clear. I appreciated that Maxwell has extensive experience reading and preparing book proposals and was able to explain why certain elements didn't work and suggest concrete examples of what would work better. 2. In addition to the specifics of my book p...
