Allison turned my disjointed, all over the place synopsis into a synopsis I can't wait to submit to agents. She also did a great job on my query. I was very happy with every aspect of our interaction. I'd use her again in a heartbeat!

I cannot thank David enough for his editing and ghost writing skills. I truly believe he turned my memoir into a cinematic masterpiece in such a short amount of time.

Ian is a meticulous editor, worth every penny you’d spend on editorial. Even though I hired Ian only to do copy edits, he put in the extra effort to proofread and also give some inputs on developmental level. Every comment he makes goes a long way in making my manuscript better. His impeccable work shows how much he cares for the manuscript and your story. His work not only improves my manuscript but also teaches me to be a better writer. My only regret is not involving Ian sooner in my work....

Jessica gave detailed insight that will greatly enhance my book. Her insights were thoughtful and actionable, with great tips and great places to reach for inspiration. She was great to work with and I'm excited to see the improvements her advice will bring to my book once I include them in my rewrite.

Danielle was wonderful to work with! Her edit letter and in-document comments were extremely thorough and helpful, and her feedback was delivered in such a kind, professional and gentle manner. Danielle's unbiased/neutral perspective was exactly what I needed to refine my manuscript. Thanks Danielle!

Conni was the developmental editor for my first book, and the experience exceeded what I'd hoped for going in. From our initial kickoff call she was clear about expectations, scope, and timeline, and she held to every commitment she made along the way. Her assessment document was thoughtfully organized and substantive - the kind of feedback that gives you a real path forward rather than a vague sense that something needs work. She had a particular gift for knowing when to push me to narrow my...

Exceptional design partner, world-class execution Sebastian Cudicio was an outstanding design partner throughout the full production journey of my book, Beyond Blame: A Human and Organizational Performance Approach to Incident Investigation, Learning, and Leadership. From the start, he demonstrated professionalism, clarity, and strong creative judgment, while remaining highly responsive to feedback and committed to achieving a premium final result. What stood out most: 1) Strong design thin...

I hired Savannah to do a developmental edit on my manuscript. The thought of finding someone to edit my work was intimidating, but Savannah came highly recommended, and it took only one conversation to know she would be the right person to collaborate with. As I write this review, I wish nothing more than to amplify the praise that others have shared. She took exceptional care of my manuscript, and provided invaluable feedback. She was easy to communicate with and provided flexibility in se...

I cannot stress enough how much I recommend working with Jamie N. He is a top-notch artist, incredibly talented! His work is some of the finest high fantasy art I've ever seen. He is also incredibly responsive and polite, a pleasure to work with. The work was amazing, and finished ahead of schedule. Moreover, Jamie will go the extra mile. I gave him precise instructions on how I wanted the art to look, and he followed those instructions to the letter. However, when I saw my own idea ...

Sharon delivered a developmental edit that transformed my manuscript before I even began the next round of revisions. Her feedback was thoughtful, precise, and deeply insightful. Honest and constructive, she pinpointed weaknesses with clarity and care, always in service of making the work stronger. She took the time to understand my vision and treated it with respect, offering guidance that elevated the manuscript without ever diminishing its heart. Her validation of my skill and creative di...

Ruth was absolutely wonderful to work with. Not only did she deliver her edit even earlier than scheduled, but the feedback she provided was both precise and thoughtful. Her keen eye for detail helped elevate the language without ever losing the original tone of the manuscript. As an editor myself, I deeply appreciated how carefully she respected the text’s voice while still improving clarity and flow. Every suggestion felt considered and purposeful, never overbearing. Her communication thr...

Working with Tiffani was a fantastic experience. Her line edit was precise and insightful, strengthening the prose while preserving the voice and rhythm of my novel - something that mattered enormously to me. She spotted repetition patterns and sentence-level clunkiness I hadn’t seen, and her suggestions tightened and clarified the writing without flattening its personality. My manuscript is unquestionably stronger as a result. Professional, perceptive, and a genuine pleasure to collaborate ...

Lia was an incredible editor and co-creator to work with to bring my first spiritual awakening book into form. Since I was very new to structuring a book, Lia guided me immensely through the developmental edit to make my manuscript more robust, impactful, succinct and flowing. She offered super helpful feedback on where to clarify parts, bring my storytelling more to life, add examples and link each chapter so it all weaves together seamlessly. Through implementing her feedback, I found mysel...

Working with Maria was an outstanding experience from beginning to end. Her editorial feedback was thoughtful, detailed, and highly actionable. She challenged me to strengthen my manuscript while always respecting my voice and the heart behind the project. Her recommendations helped me deepen key sections, improve organization, and create a more meaningful experience for readers. What impressed me most was her ability to balance professionalism with encouragement. She identified areas for i...

Hy is a genius at transforming large amounts of complex information into a book form that anyone can understand and enjoy. He's also probably the best book proposal writer for hire in the country. I'm delighted to have found Hy, and I look forward to working with him on multiple projects.
