I had a fantastic experience working with Lucy. Her developmental feedback was very detailed, thoughtful, and constructive. She has a real talent for identifying both what’s working in a story and where it can be strengthened, and she communicates her insights in a clear and encouraging way. She helped me see my work from a completely fresh perspective. Her suggestions felt both practical and inspiring, giving me a clear path forward while still respecting my voice as a writer. I’d highly r...

Tee was such a pleasure to work with. Right away I felt she connected with what I was trying to portray in my story. She put so much detail and thoughtfulness into her editing, and helped me see the ways my manuscript could be improved to be it's best possible version. Tee went above and beyond to make sure as a first time author in this genre that I would have all the resources available to me. Reading her feedback has rebooted my excitement and inspiration toward my manuscript and the poten...

Very attentive and thorough. Will use again 🖤

My initial thoughts after receiving Miriam's feedback on my query package? Wow. The entire experience was so much more than I expected. She went above and beyond to make my query letter shine. I deeply appreciated her editorial suggestions and sharp storytelling instinct, which helped me sharpen my manuscript far beyond the first 50 pages. She's direct and honest, but also supportive and encouraging. I felt like she grasped the entire project and gave comprehensive feedback across all piece...

Working with Alex was phenomenal. He responded to my brief with an idea for the design that aligned perfectly with what I had in mind. He communicated clearly and encouraged feedback. Alex was very open to the adjustments I wanted. He was timely and even finished before schedule. In the end, he created a cover for my book that was better than I could've imagined or hoped.

Working with Eva has been outstanding. Her feedback is precise, insightful, and always grounded in a deeply invested and intelligent understanding of the manuscript. She brings clarity to structure, tone, and theme, and her guidance has consistently elevated my work. Professional, reliable, and genuinely inspiring—an excellent editor of very high caliber, and craft. I highly recommend.

I hired Bonnie for both copy editing and interior book design for my nonfiction book, Stop Stealing From Yourself, and I'm glad I found someone who does both well. Bonnie was timely, responsive, and easy to work with throughout the entire process. She answered my questions clearly and never made me feel like I was asking too much. What stood out most was her willingness to accommodate small changes even toward the end of our contract — that kind of flexibility matters when you're finalizing ...

Claire didn't just edit my book; She transformed it. Exceptional work! I came to Claire with a manuscript for my book, "UPGRADE," that I was proud of, but I knew it was missing something. It had the science, the data, and the structure, but it lacked the vital 'human' element that makes a book truly connect with a reader. Claire's work was nothing short of transformative. She took my solid draft and elevated it into a polished, professional, and deeply engaging book that I am now thrilled to...

This is my first time writing a book and I am SO glad I chose Wayne to illustrate the picture book. He is AMAZING! #1 - I love his art. He really brings the story to life in ways I wouldn't have ever thought of. Also, I noticed that while a lot of the other illustrators had lovely drawings, but a bunch of them felt the same. Wayne's really just called to me and felt unique and one off for the books. #2 - Wayne is great to work with. He had some great suggestions on the book that real...

Flannery is, by far, the most thorough, sensitive, insightful editor I've ever worked with. She is a true gem, and I hope to work with her on future projects!

Claudie possesses a rare artistic talent that goes far beyond technical skill—she has the ability to truly capture the essence of a story through her art. Her illustrations don’t just complement the narrative; they elevate it, breathing life into characters and settings with a depth that resonates with readers of all ages. What makes Claudie an even greater asset is her collaborative spirit. She approaches every project with openness and respect, genuinely listening to feedback while also br...

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...

Michelle did a fantastic job with my book in not only editing but teaching me a lot about citations and when and when not needed. She was very easy to communicate with and did a thorough job. I will definitely employ her again when I have the need for a sharp, and focused editor.

I can't imagine a better development editor than Sandra. She is uber-talented, offers very thoughtful suggestions which are always spot-on, and follows up when I don't respond right away. I don't know how I got so lucky to be matched with her but I'm very glad I selected her from the list of names. Thank you, Sandra!

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 ...
