Ceileigh was an absolute pleasure to collaborate with; she went above and beyond, and her notes ended up going into more depth than I expected, which is great. She made sure to explain why certain things aren't working and gave concrete but broad enough suggestions on how to fix certain things that I still felt like I had plenty of room to address the notes with my own voice. I love how clear and communicative she was throughout the process, sending a list of questions ahead of jumping into ...

Wow! Working with Nikki was such a wonderful experience and gave me exactly what I needed on a project: a pair of fresh, talented eyes to polish a story and make it stand out! Her editorial insights were fantastic and left me feeling refreshed and excited to revise! If you're looking at taking your manuscript to the next level, consider hiring Nikki as she's a gifted editor and so kind, positive, and warm to work with!

Collette was an absolute gift to help bring my book to life. She took my vision and made it a reality. Collette brought ease to a process that can sometimes feel overwhelming and I can't recommend her enough. Her attentiveness, responsiveness and kindness went above and beyond. I am filled with gratitude.

Working with Lisa Edwards on my first book was nothing short of transformative. She guided me through the entire process with respect, clarity, and a level of thoroughness that made me feel supported at every step. I deeply appreciated her time, her patience, and her genuine passion for the creative process. Lisa brings a rare combination of strengths: she understands both the creative side of storytelling and the technical side of publishing. That dual perspective shaped the kind of deep, in...

As a first-time author, I wasn't even really sure what I needed. A proofreader? A content editor? Joy has guided me from the very beginning, offering invaluable information and feedback, sharing her own experiences with the industry, too. It's been a wonderful experience and I am so happy I found Joy.

If you're lucky enough to land Natalia, do not let go. This woman took my chaotic creative vision—illustrations, full book cover, and interior formatting—and somehow brought it to life better than I imagined. And I imagined a lot. She handled my avalanche of messages, nitpicky updates, last-minute “oh wait, one more thing” changes, and full-throttle perfectionism with the grace of a monk and the response time of a caffeinated coder. Not once did she complain. Not once did she roll her eyes (...

Agatha’s dev edit on Unbidden is the kind of work that makes you feel both seen as a writer and capable as a craftsperson. She read my manuscript like a reader and then diagnosed it like an editor, with total command of narrative mechanics (pacing, viewpoint discipline, structure), plus a sharp instinct for what my story is really about: the terrifying intimacy of being “used” by something bigger than you. Her notes are deeply specific, actionable, and cross-referenced in a way that makes rev...

As a first-time author writing a quasi-memoir through my essays, I needed more than just technical editing—I needed someone who could understand my vision and help me bring these deeply personal stories to life. Mika exceeded every expectation. From our very first interaction, Mika took the time to truly understand what I was trying to accomplish with my book. Writing personal essays is an incredibly vulnerable process, and Mika created a supportive environment that made me feel empowered ra...

Alex was wonderful to work with. As a first-time author, I didn't know what I didn't know. Alex is an experienced book cover designer who delivered beautiful work and communicated promptly, expertly, and calmly at all times! His ability to talk me through the process was a value add, since he was knowledgeable about certain aspects of book creation that I didn't know about. I appreciate very much getting the chance to work with Alex and would do so again in a heartbeat.

Working with Alison was an extremely positive experience. From the very beginning, she was professional, attentive, and thorough, but what I especially appreciated was her warmth and positive energy. She responded to my questions quickly and clearly. She noticed even the smallest details and helped ensure that the manuscript was clean and consistent. She was patient, thorough, and always willing to take another look whenever something needed to be checked. I would work with Alison again wit...

Gary has been an incredible editor. I've had the pleasure to work with him several times now, and his punctual, professional and pointed edits have assisted greatly in my work. He's given great notes on what to trim down and what to add further detail and description to. I'm fairly new at this, but can safely say that I've seen my work grow in depth and sophistication since working with Gary and would wholeheartedly recommend his services for any project.

Louise exceeded my expectations in every way. It has been a delight working with her and we have several more projects we are doing together. First, her design skills are excellent, everything was beautiful, achieved the communication objectives, and technically precise. Secondly, she is responsive and fast-open to suggestions-and offers ideas. I feel completely supported in this project and am very impressed with the finished project. On time, on budget, excellent quality.

Collette was such a pleasure to work with and she translated my design ideas beautifully. She was very patient and accomodating with my revision requests and she made sure the final design was exactly to my liking. I’m so happy with the final design and would absolutely work with her again.

It was a true pleasure collaborating with Lucy on the proofreading of my first spy thriller. She delivered outstanding work with meticulous attention to detail and went above and beyond her role—helping me troubleshoot issues with a program I wasn’t familiar with. Lucy was consistently available, responded promptly to my messages, and always met deadlines. Her professionalism, dedication, and commitment are beyond question. Thank you, Lucy, for your exceptional contribution.

Working with Cynthia has been one of the most rewarding parts of my writing journey. She brought clarity, precision, and genuine insight to every stage of the edit. Her developmental feedback strengthened the structure and emotional core of my story, and her line edits elevated the prose in ways I could feel immediately. She has an incredible gift for seeing both the big-picture narrative and the fine-grained details that make a scene sing. What impressed me most was her ability to understan...
