I enjoyed my collaboration with Kourtney so much! She was responsive, kind, and willing to work with me and my ever-changing design ideas. Her art speaks for itself and I'm so grateful that my novel gets to live alongside it. If you get the chance to work with Kourtney, you won't regret it!

I couldn’t be happier with the work Luisa has done for me. Everything has been completed promptly, to a really high standard, and she has been helpful throughout. She has gone above and beyond to make sure the finished book looks exactly as I wanted it to. I would happily recommend her.

Seth was truly amazing to work with. He took the time to understand our project goals and what we wanted to accomplish. From the initial discussions and outlining to the completed book, Seth was collaborative, responsive, and delivered a high-quality children's book on time. I recommend collaborating with Seth on your project!

Kara provided thoughtful, high-quality feedback with real editorial insight. She was professional and clear throughout the project, and her notes were constructive and actionable—not just opinions, but guidance I could apply immediately. She elevated the manuscript while retaining my voice, which made the process both productive and reassuring.

Hiring Dan to copy-edit Seraphant was one of the best decisions I made on this book. The manuscript is 180,000 words across 43 chapters, with a constructed language woven through the prose, layered worldbuilding, and a science-fantasy register that demanded a careful editorial ear. Dan handled all of it. He delivered chapter sets on a reliable Wednesday schedule, communicated cleanly throughout, and tracked global conventions—capitalization, formatting, terminology—across the whole arc with...

This is my first childrens book, and David was amazing to work with from start to finish, his experience really was so valuable to me and made the whole project so smooth and effortless. He really understood my vision and delivered the most beautiful and alive illustrations for my book. He has a great ability to create characters and give so much expression and personality to them. I plan on doing a series of these and will be for sure using him again. I highly recommend him!

James is a master of his craft and so easy to work with. What I loved most about James was he brought some fantastic ideas for me to go through and see which I ultimately loved and said let's go with it because it's unique and will stand out. I absolutely have nothing bad to say about James as he was friendly, on schedule and always brought ideas which made it easy for me to make decisions vice trying to guide him to design something that I'm not qualified to do. Will I work with him aga...

Working with Nicola has been an absolute dream. As this was my very first book, I didn’t know what to expect but Nicola was there at every step, guiding me with patience, creativity, and so much passion for her craft. She is warm, approachable, and a true professional, with excellent communication throughout the process. Her illustrations have completely brought my story to life in ways I could never have imagined. Every new spread felt like magic arriving in my inbox, and I was constantly bl...

I hired Paul to copyedit a 76,000-word literary memoir. He returned about 7,000 tracked changes and a separate document of fifteen substantive queries, and the second document is what earned this review. The process alone is worth knowing about. He locks the file for version control so the author never has to accept or reject anything — he handles that on his end, which saved me days of tedium. He pulls the judgment calls out of the redlining into their own list, quoting each passage above t...

Nina is an outstanding editor. Professional, friendly, and an expert in her field. Not only did she help with editing my query, she's given me excellent career advice. I will continue to work with her on other projects.

Dermott was extremely responsive and helpful. This was my first book and I was short of time and experience and the guidance Dermott gave has been invaluable. His developmental edits & comments & suggestions were used by me in the final edits and I would recommend him highly. Crispian

Savannah was professional, very communicative, efficient and understanding. It was clear she read my manuscript thoroughly and carefully. Her report was brimming with great suggestions and examples of modifications it would be well to make. She was kind, first telling me what worked and thoughtfully even giving me a plan on how to procede. Great value! Great experience! Will use her again.

Working with Ken was such a great experience! As a first-time author, I had plenty of questions, ideas, and moments where I wasn't quite sure what I wanted, but he was patient, supportive, and professional throughout the entire process. What I appreciated most was how open he was to feedback. We went through several iterations of the chapter design, and he never once made me feel bad about asking for changes. Instead, he worked with me until the design felt like the perfect fit for the book....

Very user friendly and easy to work with

Entrusting my book to someone else felt like a deeply personal step, but Sam immediately put me at ease. He explained the process clearly and made everything feel manageable from the start. He was incredibly generous with his knowledge, offering guidance across different areas of the publishing and editing world, and consistently went above and beyond what I expected. His feedback was thorough and insightful. He even picked up on the smallest details I hadn't considered! The collaboration f...
