Kate's the best. I more than recommend her as an editor - if your story needs help, I implore you to reach out to her. She is skilled, perceptive and thoughtful at every level of the collaboration. From big-picture structural insights to tiny inconsistencies others would miss, she's on it. Her feedback was consistently spot-on, insightful, and actionable, and I ended up incorporating a majority of her suggestions. She helped make the book stronger in ways I never anticipated. KAte was also...

Working with Elisabeth was an absolute joy. Her communication was excellent and proactive from start to finish—I always felt supported and never left guessing about next steps. As a first-time author, I especially valued her thoughtful suggestions and helpful guidance, which made the entire process smooth and confidence-building. The bespoke design elements Elisabeth created were gorgeous—unique, personal, and perfectly reflective of both my taste and the overall aesthetic I envisioned for t...

I give Nina Roy the highest marks possible in all areas. She's simply amazing and I cannot say enough great things about her. Her work far exceeded my expectations- she praises what is good and takes the time and care to discuss what doesn't. Her suggestions about how to fix problem areas are of great help to me. Nina is so thorough and all her communqués just bubble with dedication to be of service too her client. I think she's a fabulous asset to my book and well worth the money that was re...

Hiring Dan to copy-edit Seraphant was one of the best decisions I made on this book. The manuscript is 180,000 words across 43 chapters, with a constructed language woven through the prose, layered worldbuilding, and a science-fantasy register that demanded a careful editorial ear. Dan handled all of it. He delivered chapter sets on a reliable Wednesday schedule, communicated cleanly throughout, and tracked global conventions—capitalization, formatting, terminology—across the whole arc with...

Working with Sarah on my manuscript was an exceptional experience. Her editorial expertise brought clarity, flow, and polish to the work—from refining grammar and syntax to enhancing transitions and sharpening key ideas. Her comments were insightful and respectful of my intent, offering thoughtful suggestions that elevated the manuscript without compromising its voice. I was also grateful for the thorough plagiarism check, which confirmed the originality of the content and gave me added confi...

Kristin is an amazing editor who made the process a lot easier and did a great job helping me. As a first time author, where I thought this was only ever a pipe dream, it was nerve wracking handing someone basically my heart on a page. She was very compassionate and supportive, but honest and critical in the best way. She has an impeccable understanding of poetry and how to best get your point across to the reader. Always responds to emails promptly and asks important questions that make you ...

Dom has a long list of excellent reviews for good reason. He is the consummate professional, an active listener, a coach, and a cheerleader, imploring you to achieve better results. AI cannot replicate his counsel. 6 stars!

As a debut author launching my first website, I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Maite brought real care and intuition to the process, with a strong understanding of story, tone, and emotional world-building — not just design. She created a site that feels like a genuine invitation into a story still unfolding, balancing atmosphere and clarity beautifully. Thoughtful, collaborative, and quiet confidence-building, she was the perfect partner to help mark the beginning of my author...

Zena was everything I hoped for in a developmental editor — insightful, thorough and genuinely invested in helping the story reach its potential. Her feedback went far beyond surface notes, she understood the heart of my project and gave me both the tools and the motivation to keep going. The depth of her editorial report, the thoughtfulness of her comments and her ability to balance critique with encouragement were exceptional. It will take me time to reflect and revise, but I already feel ...

JC Perry was great to work with, she worked out issues as they came up. I'm new to the process so it was a learning experience. I'm waiting to see the final product on IngramSpark. The Amazon KDP looks great. I will used JC Perry's services again on my second book if she is still doing this type of work.

Working with Christina has been a truly wonderful experience. She handled the project with professionalism and delivered exactly what we had agreed, while the quality of her illustrations exceeded all my expectations. Her work is full of life and perfectly captures the spirit of the stories. The value of her contribution goes far beyond the payment, as her dedication and passion are evident in every detail. Throughout the entire process, she was responsive, clear, and always supportive, makin...

Working with Nina Bruhns was a fantastic learning experience from beginning to end, and one I would recommend without hesitation to any writer, but especially to debut authors finding their footing. As a first-time novelist, I wasn't entirely sure what professional editorial feedback would look like or how it would feel to receive it. Nina understood exactly where I was in the writing process and met me there with patience, insight, and genuine encouragement. She provided two invaluable doc...

This was the most incredible experience ever for me. Florin was extremely professional and also kind, his work exceeded my expectations while aligning perfectly with my vision. He went above and beyond with my many different requests, and created something truly special, unique and beautiful. I sent many different references and explanations, and his work was exactly what I wanted, but with creativity and skill I couldn’t have imagined myself. It was my first time commissioning an artist ...

I am delighted to share my experience working Eleanor as editor, whose professionalism, insight, and dedication made an extraordinary difference in bringing my manuscript to publication readiness. From the outset, their communication was clear, timely, and highly organized. Deadlines were consistently met, and I always felt confident that my work was in capable and committed hands. Their responsiveness and willingness to engage in thoughtful discussion ensured that every stage of the process ...

Robin made my book so much better I'm so glad I found Robin. From the beginning, I could tell she really got what I was trying to do with my story. She didn't just edit—she understood the heart of the work and helped me bring it out in ways I couldn't see on my own. Her feedback was honest and insightful without ever making me feel discouraged. She pointed out things that weren't working, but always with clear suggestions for how to fix them. And she caught so many little details I'd missed. ...
