Lynne Walker is an exceptionally talented editor whose precision and insight elevated every page of my manuscript while preserving my voice. She completed an inline edit for me, and her comments were sharp, constructive, and always grounded in a deep understanding of tone and rhythm. Working with her was seamless. She’s professional, punctual, and consistently responsive. Every exchange reflected her care and commitment to excellence. Lynne brought not only skill but genuine respect f...

Lanette edited and proofread my debut book, Not Yet Whole: A Guide to Self-Understanding and the End of Becoming, and her contribution to this project went far beyond what I originally hired her for. From the editing stage, Lanette brought a careful and thoughtful eye to the manuscript. She respected the book's voice and philosophical depth while helping clarify the language and sharpen the reading experience. Her margin comments were specific and always honest. What truly set Lanette apart...

Debbie is amazing. After working with her, I now feel confident I can present my manuscript to a literary agent or publisher. She worked hard, clearly showing me how mistakes could be rectified and giving praise where it was due. I would thoroughly recommend her to anyone seeking a developmental editor. You will learn a lot. She is personable and very easy to work with. At no time did I feel pressured, and she understood my current eye problems while I await surgery. Do not hesitate to work ...

I hired Ciera to do a final proofread on my novel, after two other editors had their eyes on it. Well, she found the mistakes they missed, and she ensured my work was a professional product. She was responsive, delivered ahead of time, and gladly looked at two additional scenes I had rewritten. She's a pro and every author needs someone like Ciera to check their work.

Siân copyedited my manuscript using CMOS and provided additional line/developmental notes as necessary. She was incredibly helpful, kind, and professional throughout the process. Her excitement about my initial draft made me excited to work with her! Siân's suggestions and comments pointed out things in my manuscript to strengthen the story, characters, and the impact of key chapters. She asked about my specific concerns before starting, and in her feedback, she provided comments directly re...

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...

Alan has now completed a few projects for me, and he is the best. He is responsive, professional, and always does an incredible job.

I can’t say enough good things about Mozelle. Working with her was an absolute pleasure. She is a consummate professional. The assignment was a difficult one: proofreading a 375-page memoir that intentionally breaks many traditional rules of punctuation and formatting in order to preserve the author’s voice and style. Mozelle paid extremely close attention to every detail. She understood the difference between something that needed correcting and something that was an intentional stylistic ...

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.

Taylor was so helpful! She pointed out major issues with the main character that I somehow managed to miss, and gave me lots of helpful feedback. I am currently in the process of revising the manuscript thoroughly, and thanks to Taylor, it is already so much better.

James is a master of his craft and so easy to work with. What I loved most about James was he brought some fantastic ideas for me to go through and see which I ultimately loved and said let's go with it because it's unique and will stand out. I absolutely have nothing bad to say about James as he was friendly, on schedule and always brought ideas which made it easy for me to make decisions vice trying to guide him to design something that I'm not qualified to do. Will I work with him aga...

I came to her with a manuscript that was ambitious, contrarian, and structured in a very specific way. As an author, you often fear that an editor will try to flatten your voice or force your unique structure into a standard box. Kimberley did the exact opposite: she entered my world completely. From day one, she treated the project not just as a job, but as a partnership. She took the time to deeply understand the "heartbeat" of the book—why certain sections needed to be contemplative and o...

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...

Amy did her thing! She was on time, super thorough, and came with suggestions that actually made sense. I loved that she didn’t just change stuff—if it wasn’t a clear grammar fix, she asked me first. And when it came to the Word, she double-checked to make sure my creative voice didn’t drift into anything unbiblical. That mattered to me. She’s sharp with the details (even caught little things nobody else noticed), and it felt more like a partnership than just an edit. Honestly, I felt prayed ...

Scott copyedited my 131,000-word science fiction novel, the first book in a planned series, and I could not have asked for a better experience. The mechanical work was flawless: spelling, punctuation, capitalization, and a comprehensive style sheet for my invented terminology that I’ll now use across the entire series. But what set Scott apart was everything beyond the commas. He tracked plot logic across 43 chapters, catching moments where a villain’s choices needed stronger motivation, wher...
