Clint is THE best. Working with him was a terrific, seamless, and fun experience. Right away he understood my needs and responsed with multiple, imaginative, gorgeous concepts, all of which reflected the heart of my work. In addition, he was responsive and timely, working on an accelerated timeline due to my deadlines. In the end, I am thrilled with the final product and will not only recommend him to fellow writers, but also seek him out for future collaborations. I cannot recommend him high...

Jain provided me with guidance that I consider incredible. The notes and comments made throughout the text were clear and concise, enabling me to interpret and implement the suggested changes. She helped me rearrange my manuscript to read in a smooth, orderly manner. It is now a pleasure to read. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for an editor. If I write another book, I will look for Jain.

Working with Vicki on the cover design of my book was an excellent experience. From the very beginning, she demonstrated a high level of professionalism and a deep understanding of graphic design. She quickly grasped the ideas and atmosphere I wanted the cover to convey and translated them into a visually striking result. Vicki was also extremely knowledgeable and offered thoughtful suggestions that improved the final design. Throughout the process she was responsive, organized, and very eas...

Shaun was friendly, patient, and accommodating. What more could you want?

Working with Krista was an amazing experience. I searched different sites and received several different quotes that I wasn't really eager to accept, until I came across Krista's profile and saw that she edited a book that I've recently read. As soon as I saw that, I knew she would be the perfect fit for my book. Receiving her offer was the icing on the cake. Everything that she offered was delivered and I am so very grateful. The process was very smooth and she provided feedback that has hel...

Dakota brings an editor’s precision and a poet’s ear to every line. What sets her apart is her relentless focus on line craft—enjambments, indentations, and rhythm aren’t just technical matters for her; they’re the pulse of the poem. She has a gift for spotting where a break loses torque, where a stanza can carry more weight, or where a single word could unlock the music of the whole piece. Her feedback is uncompromising in the best way: every line must stand alone as art, every stanza must ...

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

Wow! Working with Nikki was such a wonderful experience and gave me exactly what I needed on a project: a pair of fresh, talented eyes to polish a story and make it stand out! Her editorial insights were fantastic and left me feeling refreshed and excited to revise! If you're looking at taking your manuscript to the next level, consider hiring Nikki as she's a gifted editor and so kind, positive, and warm to work with!

Travis is worth his weight in gold. He did an excellent job. He put himself close to our project treating as if it were his own. As important he revised the content with the target reader in mind. We gave him a manuscript of 69,000 words he went through it thoroughly and condensed it down to the very best to rebuild with. He gave us the exact guidance we needed to move forward. He was fair in his critique, professional and delivered on time. He was the perfect find for our project we highly r...

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.

Laura's feedback and attention to detail have been invaluable in helping me progress my novel towards publication. She is thorough and meticulous in her editing, and always professional, encouraging and friendly in our interactions. I have appreciated her prompt and detailed responses and her very useful suggestions. I highly recommend Laura for her sensitivity, expertise and experience.

Jo is a real professional. Her help getting my project of designing a children's picture book was just what I needed. As first time children's book author and illustrator, there were many components that required more coordinating than I had anticipated. The project was beyond my capabilites, which is where Jo' expertise was so helpful. In the process, she pointed out things that needed adjustment to my copy and art. We had to rework some pages to fit the requirements of the printing company ...

James proofread my 63,000-word nonfiction book, and the work was exactly what a final proofread should be. He returned clean tracked changes — over 750 corrections — plus nearly a hundred margin comments where a decision was mine to make, each one clearly explained. He caught things well beyond typos: an appendix citation that didn't match what the chapter actually said, a sentence that quietly contradicted the book's timeline, and consistency slips I'd read past a dozen times. Just as impor...

This is my second time working with Harrold-Vincent Villanueva and couldn't be happier with the work he did, both times. I constantly get praise over the covers he's done for me, which I don't think I need to tell you is invaluable for an author. As much as the old saying gets tossed around, people can and do judge a book by its cover. Not only is he a talented, hardworking artist, but you can really tell he cares about the covers he puts out and the stories they're trying to tell. I'll b...

The depth of Laura’s knowledge of the English language is incredible, she is a true craftswoman. She is supportive, generous, and her genuine enthusiasm for my debut novel has given me a much needed confidence boost! The thought of publishing my novel without Laura’s expert attention makes me break out in a cold sweat. I’m looking forward to working with her again. If you want the best, choose Laura.
