I can't recommend Rebecca Roy highly enough for a developmental edit. What I've received has been exceptional and far more than what I even expected in such a short amount of time. There was nothing rushed about the edit I received - both on my script and an overarching in-depth document filled with nothing but suggestions and, more importantly, the reason behind the suggestions. Rebecca has also been available before, during and after, to discuss any of the suggested edits. Many I took on bo...

Working with Chet has been nothing short of an absolute delight! They helped make a fragmented concept into a cohesive manuscript. Chet is professional, prompt, communicative and hilarious. I wouldn't want to work with another professional.

I worked with Holly on my memoir, a book about a tough childhood and building a business from the ground up, and she was fantastic. Detail-oriented to a level I didn't know existed. She caught everything at the line level, but she also saw the bigger picture: the conceptual storytelling, the arc, where the narrative needed to breathe and where it needed to move. I ended up rewriting large sections of the manuscript based on her recommendations. Every one of those rewrites made the final produ...

I cannot recommend Nicola highly enough. I came to her with manuscripts for my children’s picture books, and her editorial input has been nothing short of brilliant. Every recommendation she made enhanced the story, sharpened the flow, and elevated the overall quality of the books in ways I couldn’t have achieved on my own. She has a real gift for understanding the heart of a story and helping it come through more clearly, while always respecting the author’s voice and vision. Working with h...

Edyta is a talented artist and created a whimsical and wonderful illustration for a project I'm working on. Excited to work with her again!

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.

Jess delivered an exceptional editorial experience. Her line‑editing was precise, thoughtful, and deeply aligned with the voice and intent of the manuscript. She demonstrated a rare ability to refine language without diluting meaning, strengthen structure without altering message, and elevate clarity while preserving tone. Her attention to detail — particularly around citation integrity, chapter cohesion, and narrative flow — materially improved the quality of the book. She approached the wo...

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...

Katie is a marketing pro! Data driven, clear guidance, incredibly helpful to self-publishing authors. Knowing how to well doesn't mean knowing how to sell well. That's a different discipline and, frankly, an art in itself. Katie provided the know-how that I was lacking. I have a clear vision, a clear plan, and confidence that I am not just shooting from the hip as it pertains to marketing my book. I loved her customized powerpoint as an actual deliverable. Well worth every penny I spent.

I am so grateful that I was able to find Philip Bashe to review my manuscript. After reviewing his previous body of work - he was the only person I wanted to provide a copy/line edit for my book. He provided a thorough and exhaustive edit not only on time - but actually two weeks ahead of time to accommodate my own schedule - allowing me to finish my work during a natural break in my own life. More importantly than simply completing the work early, however, he poured an incredible level of...

Again, Katherine was amazing! So incredibly helpful, and I loved reading her edits and letter. Will definitely work with again!

Working with Martin was one of the most valuable parts of the entire writing process. He delivered a thorough, exacting copy edit of a 77,000-word nonfiction economics manuscript and went considerably beyond the scope of what I contracted for. His notes were direct, honest, and at times bracing in the best way possible. He told me exactly what a paying audience would make of the work, which is precisely what you need at this stage and rarely get. What stood out most was his willingness to en...

I had a very positive experience working with Cathy. Her feedback was thoughtful, careful, and genuinely improved the clarity and structure of my manuscript. She was especially strong at identifying repetition and helping me tighten the work without losing my voice or the emotional tone of the book. Communication was clear and respectful throughout the process, and her notes showed real engagement with the material rather than surface-level edits. I always felt that the manuscript was being h...

I’m absolutely thrilled with my new website. Not just the end result, but also the process leading up to it. He listened carefully to what I had to say, and when I wasn’t quite sure what I needed, he came up with great creative and innovative suggestions. This applies not only to the design, but also to other important elements like how Google displays my site and other technical features. He always responded promptly, thought things through with me, and was a pleasure to work with. I’m alrea...

I initially reached out to Julie because of her experience with military history and religion—both critical aspects of my book—but was soon struck by her attention to detail across the breadth of my story’s concerns. I felt at once as though a fellow traveler had happened across my dig-site, understood what I was up to, and pitched in to help. One moment I’m brushing away dirt and debris from some bewildering artifact, extracting those pieces that might otherwise comprise the whole, and the n...
