Deborah is an amazing editor. I really appreciated her help with my middle grade fantasy. Her suggestions were great and she pinpointed problems in the manuscript and offered genuinely helpful suggestions. I hope to work with her in the future and would recommend her to anyone else.

I can't say enough great things about Wesley. As someone with a packed schedule, I was nervous about how hands-on the design process would need to be, but Wesley made it completely effortless. Working with Wesley was one of the best decisions I made for my book. From the very start, he demonstrated exceptional attention to detail and required minimal direction, a rare quality that made the entire process seamless for a busy professional like me. He picked up on small cues and ran with them, k...

When I finished my book, I thought the hard part was over--until I started the self-publishing journey. Having Shawna as my editor definitely helped ease the anxiety and self-doubt that constantly attacked me as I figured out how to navigate through this overwhelming process. She took the time to understand me as an author, listened, responded timely, and always let me know what to expect next. She not only provided suggestions and constructive feedback on the content of my book but also prep...

Shenny responds quickly, communicates clearly, and kept me up to date on what was going on even when my input wasn't needed. I was originally just looking for a web page setup but opted for a full branding package as well, pretty much on a whim since it was within my budget, and I'm glad I did! The palette and look/vibe she came up with were exactly what I didn't know I was looking for (if you've ever spent hours on Pinterest looking for ideas without being able to actually pinpoint anything,...

I will use Kieron's services again without hesitation.

I have sent Sam three children's stories to date. He makes each scene more lively and suggest ideas that I had never thought of. Sam makes editing a stress free process!

Lynne is a fantastic writing coach. She is a natural teacher and honed in quickly on key issues with my draft novel and how to address them. Lynne's insight and advice is helping tremendously as I revise my draft--elevating my understanding of storytelling and my confidence. These are lessons I never learned in a creative writing course at university, but I wish I had. She provides such clarity that her suggestions seem natural and obvious afterwards--but the fact is, I never would have ar...

I have really enjoyed working with Laura. The feedback I received was extremely detailed, insightful and constructive, while also being kind and encouraging. Her critique gave me a far clearer understanding of picture book structure and the editing process, as well as valuable direction on how to strengthen my current manuscript. Laura was incredibly responsive throughout the process, with fast replies, regular updates and thoughtful communication which made me feel very reassured as someone...

Sean Strain is a consummate professional. He communicates extremely well throughout the process—and leading up to our window of work. I engaged Sean for proofreading and what I got back was very thorough. You can tell he takes pride in his work. I was impressed with the things he found and corrected—things I would have missed. The overall quality of what I got back was excellent. His updates within the manuscript and included style guide were easy to implement. He also reformatted 60+ footnot...

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 ...

Stephanie was incredible to work with from start to finish! She was timely, communicative, and made the entire process feel approachable, which was especially important to me as a first-time author navigating professional editing. From the very beginning, she put me at ease and created an environment where I felt comfortable asking questions and being honest about my concerns. Her feedback was extremely informative and insightful. She didn’t just point out issues, she explained them in a way...

Deborah did an amazing job proofreading my middle grade fantasy novel! She caught things that went unnoticed during previous revisions, explained why she was correcting what she did with references, and delivered on time. Her constructive feedback has not only made my book better, but I feel like a better writer for it!

I am thrilled about the collaboration I had with George Stevens. He designed the most beautiful cover for my debut book, The Long Way Here and the books layout and design are more amazing than I could have ever imagined. The book launched earlier this week and I've been receiving positive feedback about the book's look and feel. I'm am extremely pleased with the way the book turned out. I am so grateful for George's expertise and self-publishing knowledge. He was so easy to work with and extr...

Phillip was a real pleasure to work with. He was endlessly patient with us as we navigated our way through doing a job like this for the first time. His advice was spot on. The final result looks terrific. The author is thrilled.

Victoria was not only wonderful to deal with, friendly and accommodating, she also provided me with a thorough and detailed edit that has helped me produce a polished manuscript. Her communication was excellent and I couldn't recommend her highly enough.
