Dora could not have been better. Aside from being timely and thoughtful, her work captured not only the essence of the story but how I envisioned it. Absolutely first rate.

Mark is an excellent writer and scholar. He has a true passion for what he does. He is personable and articulate, a true professional. I come from a background in Philosophy and he navigates that with excellence. He is creative as well; you can see that with his personal writing. He has the credentials to support what he is doing and you won't be disappointed. I enjoyed working with him. He feels like a friend who shows concern for the well-being of your project. He is deeply invested in gi...

Working with Lorna was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. She brought a warm, encouraging energy to the entire process. Her proofreading was meticulous and thorough — she caught everything — but what truly set her apart was how she communicated. She was prompt, kind, and a genuine delight to work with. I never felt like just another project; I felt supported. If you're looking for a proofreader who combines sharp eyes with a wonderful collaborative spirit, Lorna is your person. I woul...

Working with Michael has been an incredible experience from start to finish. His editorial insight is sharp, thoughtful, and deeply attuned to both the heart of the story and the clarity of the writing. He has a rare ability to elevate ideas without ever overshadowing the author’s voice, and his feedback consistently brings out the strongest, most polished version of the work. What I appreciate most is his balance of professionalism and genuine enthusiasm. He celebrates the wins, guides the ...

She is a true professional and master of her craft. The project we worked on was very ambitious and Alexandra added huge value with a really fast turnaround.

I have absolutely no words to explain how incredible Nicolae has been, but I'll try! Working on my cover together has been an absolute dream. The care, dedication, and attention to detail in Nicolae's work were clear from the earliest concept ideas; communication was straightforward, and he never hesitated to try my ideas, no matter how many changes I made! Given some circumstances, Nicolae requested that the project date be changed, and still completed the project with such close attention t...

It's been an absolute pleasure working with Candace. Her artwork is beautiful, she was super-responsive, and she was innovative in creating the best path to the artwork I required. I highly recommend her and hope to work with her again in the future.

Leslie was amazing from start to finish. She was the exact reason I was looking for an editor. I knew I had a great idea and put together a strong product, but her eyes on the project made it even better. She was able to see things in my writing that I was blind to and her suggestions were spot on to fit my writing style and the picture I was trying to frame. It did not feel like she was trying to fit me into her box, but editing in a way that made it fit me. This is my second book and this e...

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...

I've seen some of Octavio's work before and they look amazing but he seriously blew me away with what he did for my project. You can tell he's a trust master of his craft and highly talented. He was also super easy to work with. I'd recommend him to anyone whose looking for an amazing illustrator.

Shanika did a wonderful job! She was fast, affordable, and very detailed. She gave me great feedback on my submission package. She answered all my questions, and I really trust her guidance given all her experience in the industry. I would definitely hire her again. I highly recommend working with her.

I had the pleasure of working with Saranne again for the final edit of Stanley Tails: A Rescue Dog’s Adventures – Book 1, and I could not be happier with the experience. Saranne did a beautiful job preparing the manuscript for the next stage of the publishing process and for my illustrator. Her editing is thoughtful, perceptive, and respectful of the author’s voice. She has a wonderful ability to recognize what a story needs while still allowing it to remain unmistakably the writer’s own. W...

I've been working with Lauren a couple of years now. . . character development, voice, POV and an editorial assessment. Lauren has helped me to tighten my work, as well as improve the pacing of my narrative. Nothing Lauren has told me has been wrong, and her critiques have only strengthened the story I have been creating. Overall, and simply put, Lauren has been invaluable in my writing process, and I hope to work with her again on future projects.

I highly recommend Robin for your book editing needs. She is outstanding!! I give her five stars in every category. She is responsive, punctual, professional, and adds tremendous value to her work. She has now edited two of my books, and I plan to continue working with her on future projects.

This is the third time I’ve worked with Kim and she’s brilliant – great and fast communication, excellent expert advice and the eyes of an eagle. It shows that she loves what she does. Can’t recommend her enough. Thanks again, Kim!
