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

Elaini was wonderful to work with and very professional. She was sure to answer all of my questions in a timely fashion and her attention to detail made my project the best version it could be. I am very grateful. She finished early as well.

Working with Rebecca Allen on my manuscript, The Case of Lord Simon, was an absolute game-changer. This was my first novel and my first time working with an editor, and Rebecca made the entire process feel both professional and approachable—from her clear communication to her thoughtful, meticulous edit. Her copy edit was thorough without being heavy-handed. She strengthened clarity, consistency, and flow while preserving my voice and the historical tone of the book. Her comments were specif...

Victoria was not only wonderful to deal with, friendly and accommodating, she also provided me with a thorough and detailed edit that has helped me produce a polished manuscript. Her communication was excellent and I couldn't recommend her highly enough.

Working with Sarah on my YA novel was such a positive experience. Right from the start she was highly responsive and engaged in my story premise. This was my first experience with a professional editor and Sarah answered all my questions and eased my concerns. Most importantly, the developmental edits Sarah returned were invaluable! Sarah's edits were detailed, thorough and delivered so thoughtfully. Her attention to detail really stood out to me, as did her ability to deliver feedback in a c...

Octavio was amazing to work with. He did a wonderful job with my cover. He was timely in getting back to me with updates on the project. This was my first time working with an illustrator on a book cover and Octavio was patient and easy to work with. He had wonderful vision in helping bring my ideas to life. I would work with him again.

Michelle was an absolute pleasure to work with from day one. It was great to bounce ideas off her and she constantly made me reassess what I’d written with thought provoking questions and pertinent comments. I look forward to working with her again on my follow up novel. Thank you Michelle for everything!

This is my first book so I had manner lessons to learn that negatively impacted my efficiency. Chandler was kind, patient, and prompt. My communication style was readily adapted by Chandler. My book required a design that could hold the heaviness of the subject matter with room for the reader to breathe. Chandler understood this and designed a book that will hold the reader with care and compassion simply based on the white space, font style and size, and pacing of the manuscript. On my own, ...

5 Stars - Outstanding Line Editor Rob MacGregor is exceptional. Working with him on my hard science fiction novel transformed the manuscript in ways I hadn't anticipated. His line editing goes above and beyond - he caught critical continuity issues, timeline inconsistencies, and character development gaps that would have seriously weakened the book. When he identified structural concerns, his suggestions were clear roadmaps to solutions, not just critiques. What distinguishes Rob is how he...

Working with Krista was an amazing experience. I searched different sites and received several different quotes that I wasn't really eager to accept, until I came across Krista's profile and saw that she edited a book that I've recently read. As soon as I saw that, I knew she would be the perfect fit for my book. Receiving her offer was the icing on the cake. Everything that she offered was delivered and I am so very grateful. The process was very smooth and she provided feedback that has hel...

Mickey was exceptional! She took the concepts in my book and created a cover that speaks for itself. The joy, whimsy, and message come through clearly and are simply fun to look at. She was a fabulous collaborator and stayed with me as we honed the final concept to make the details truly shine. I will hire her again in a heartbeat! She is a gem.

Pamela has always delivered fantastic work on time. She's excellent when it comes to translating romance and erotica, and she's also comfortable translating stories with taboo sexual themes. It's always a pleasure to work with her, and that's why I'm still a repeat customer!

Brittany did an excellent job editing my manuscript. The line edits were exactly what I was looking for. What sets her apart are her suggestions. She provided valuable advice on how I can improve the mechanics of my writing. And she understands where I am as a story teller and offered concrete suggestions on how I can improve. She did not overwhelm me with advice and let sections of my manuscript breath. Her edits and feedback are well worth her rate. I would not hesitate to recommend her. I'...

Katie is a fantastic editor. She sees both the forest and the trees, with a keen eye towards purpose. As a writer, I sometimes get so bogged down in the details of a piece that I struggle to zoom out. Katie identified any and all narrative inconsistencies and ambiguities. My writing is more compelling and persuasive because of her edits. She also has a sharp eye for grammar or wording issues and provides great suggestions. She managed to do all of this on an exceedingly tight timeline. I cann...

David is an incredibly talented and imaginative illustrator with a rare gift for bringing ideas to life. He took a concept that felt very difficult to visualize and transformed it into something truly special, far beyond what I had imagined. He immediately understood my vision and created illustrations full of energy, charm, and personality that elevated the entire story. His creativity helped turn the manuscript into a beautiful, engaging short chapter book. On top of his talent, David was ...
