Franzi was wonderful to work with. She was so professional and communicative. I appreciate her attention to detail and the care she put into helping us not just translate the text, but conceptualize this books in a different language and culture.

Ragav is wonderfully insightful, productive, and motivating. He quickly understood my goals and delivered an expert edit that was thorough, precise, and constructive. He assumed role of coach, peer, and editor all at once. Mostly, he champions and cares about the work and the author in equal measure.

Helen improved my initial Book Blurb with her experience and insight, understanding my intent and improving its voice. As a first-time author and writer, she gave an objectivity to my raw just-getting-my-thoughts-down-on-paper writing while suggesting a better style.

So impressed with the whole experience working with Matthew. He was really outstanding throughout the process, went way above and beyond on everything from explaining every feature or use of the site to setting up or connecting to other related sites or services, and his extra work on the design. His communication was so clear and thorough, truly felt his care about the project. And the end result was tremendous and really fit my book and its world. Definitely looking forward to working with...

Christina was a pleasure to work with: professional, responsive, and very easy to collaborate with. She brought a careful eye to the manuscript, helping refine the text, improve clarity, and ensure everything was clean and consistent while preserving my voice. Her feedback was clear and helpful throughout. Overall, a very positive experience.

Working with Frances across multiple projects has been an incredible learning experience. Each time, I’ve walked away grateful for her time, expertise, and guidance. Both the editorial assessments and developmental edits she provided gave me invaluable insight into the publishing landscape and the revision process. I feel as though I keep a tiny Frances on my shoulder now whenever I sit down to revise, pulling her considerations into my work. When in doubt, ask yourself: What would Frances do?

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 hired Ciera to do a final proofread on my novel, after two other editors had their eyes on it. Well, she found the mistakes they missed, and she ensured my work was a professional product. She was responsive, delivered ahead of time, and gladly looked at two additional scenes I had rewritten. She's a pro and every author needs someone like Ciera to check their work.

Helen has done an absolutely outstanding job on my manuscript. Engaged Helen for copyedit and proofread. She really nailed down the the fantasy vocabulary I created and realised mistakes and inconsistencies in my own work. Really has elevated this to the next level. Will be using again and highly recommend.

I can’t really put into words how grateful I am to have worked with Yuliia & her team. From the very beginning, she was prompt, professional, and incredibly attentive to my vision- but what truly amazed me was how she took that vision and elevated it far beyond what I could have imagined. The artwork is absolutely stunning, full of life, emotion, and detail. I felt completely included and updated throughout every step of the process, which made the entire experience feel collaborative and str...

Working with Molly has been such a wonderful experience. Because this memoir is so deeply personal to me, trusting someone else with my story felt like a big step. From the very beginning, she handled my words with such care, thoughtfulness, and respect. She understood what I was trying to say, honored my voice, and offered guidance that made my manuscript stronger without ever making it feel less like mine. I came away from this experience feeling encouraged, confident, and even more excite...

I sent my proposal to five editors on Reedsy. David was the only editor who suggested a free sample edit on the first couple of chapters. I can't imagine hiring an editor without first seeing how they edit, how they interact with my material and how they make suggestions. It showed immediately how serious and thorough an editor David is. I was won over straight away after reading David's comments and edits because he pointed things out that had never crossed my mind but which in fact were hug...

Vicki was extremely professional and from day one she understood our concept and engaged with our book. Her ideas were great and she has created the perfect cover for our book - The Dash of Life. She is easy to work with, great at communicating and has been instrumental in making this an exciting and enjoyable project.

Working with Adrienne was an absolutely transformative experience for my manuscript. She was amazing and far more than just helpful; she possesses a unique talent for seeing the bigger picture of a story. When I came to her, my plot was a collection of disconnected ideas and scenes. Adrienne skillfully helped me weave those threads together into a cohesive and compelling narrative. Her insights into structuring the story were invaluable. She identified where the pacing lagged, suggested turn...
