Chandler was incredible to work with while editing my self-help book proposal. She was extremely thoughtful in both her written feedback on the document and in her communication with me throughout the process. I learned so much from her. She took the time to make sure I truly understood her edits and comments rather than just making changes and moving on. She also made me feel like I wasn’t alone in the process. Writing a book proposal can feel overwhelming, and her support, clarity, and enc...

Dora was absolutely wonderful throughout the entire process and even offered support afterward for formatting edits. Her work is incredible and I'm so happy with the final product. Collaborating with her was a breeze and she truly brought my vision to life. Communication was great and constant throughout. She kept me up to date throughout the entire process. It was amazing to be able to bounce ideas and different visuals back and forth. I highly recommend Dora!!

Working with Charlotte was an amazing experience from start to finish. She truly brought my vision to life and helped shape my children’s book into something even more beautiful than I imagined. She paid close attention to every detail, especially the emotional tone, representation, and overall feel I wanted the story and illustrations to have. I felt genuinely heard throughout the entire process. Charlotte was incredibly patient, responsive, and open to feedback. She made revisions thoughtf...

Working with Ellie has been an excellent experience. At the beginning, I thought I was simply hiring someone to build a website. As the project developed, I realized she was doing much more than that. She was helping transform my vision into reality. She took the time to understand what I was trying to build and brought professionalism, creativity, patience, and genuine care throughout the process. She helped shape the website and the digital presence surrounding my book, and I am extremely ...

Tom is helping me get new signups for my website ReaderVerified.com. The turnaround has been quick and steady. ReaderVerified is focused on indie and self published authors, a small niche community. Tom was able to identify that slice of the market and get me real results. I couldn't have done it without him! John F Noone

John was great to work with.

I am totally delighted with Ed and how he has improved my entire project. Not only does he pay meticulous attention to every detail, every comma, every capital letter, but he also combines it with the higher-level view of the story style and construction. A wee side note from Ed saying "laughed at this" or similar comments makes the whole process so fun. I was excited to read each of his notes to find the ones that showed we were reading this together. I feel I was lucky to find Ed.

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.

Working with C.J. was an exceptional experience. She approached my manuscript with discernment, compassion, and an evident respect for both my voice and the audience I hoped to serve. Her editorial feedback was thoughtful, comprehensive, and remarkably constructive. She identified opportunities to strengthen the manuscript while preserving the heart and purpose behind my writing. Her guidance helped me develop a more cohesive, substantive, and meaningful book. I am deeply grateful for the car...

Working with Grace has been one of the best decisions I've made for my manuscript and for myself as a writer. She is both sharp and genuinely enthusiastic for the work. She caught things I hadn't seen, but just as importantly, she confirmed things I felt but was unsure about. That second part matters more than I expected. Having her reflect my own instincts back with confidence has pushed me to be a better writer. Beyond the editorial work itself, working with Grace feels easy. Professional,...

Gary is incredibly easy to work with, and his suggestions always leave me with "why didn't I think of that?" This is our second collaboration, and I can't imagine any of my future books without him. He works quickly and consistently delivers more than promised. I'm looking forward to working with him again soon.

Working with Tiffani was a fantastic experience. Her line edit was precise and insightful, strengthening the prose while preserving the voice and rhythm of my novel - something that mattered enormously to me. She spotted repetition patterns and sentence-level clunkiness I hadn’t seen, and her suggestions tightened and clarified the writing without flattening its personality. My manuscript is unquestionably stronger as a result. Professional, perceptive, and a genuine pleasure to collaborate ...

Working with Maite was what I hoped for, and more! Her background in marketing, combined with her tech savvy insight pro tips made for an overall positive experience. She is thorough in her mission to extract information to build you the website you’re looking for. At first I felt overwhelmed by this, but Maite helped me persevere through it. I’m proud of this collaboration, and so happy with the results. She created an inviting, engaging, cohesive, and joyful website for a first time auth...

Travis is worth his weight in gold. He did an excellent job. He put himself close to our project treating as if it were his own. As important he revised the content with the target reader in mind. We gave him a manuscript of 69,000 words he went through it thoroughly and condensed it down to the very best to rebuild with. He gave us the exact guidance we needed to move forward. He was fair in his critique, professional and delivered on time. He was the perfect find for our project we highly r...

Working with Conrad was an outstanding experience from start to finish. He did far more than simply edit my manuscript—he helped me uncover more of the stories I was trying to tell. His feedback was thoughtful, insightful, and consistently pushed me to dig deeper into my characters, themes, and emotional moments without ever changing my voice as a writer. What I appreciated most was his encouragement throughout the process. Every round of edits left me feeling more motivated and more confide...
