Dr. Willoughby is both competent and courteous. We had good communication in the process and his editing notes were clear and insightful.

Mike did an incredible job bringing my vision to life. I had written a children's book for my son's first birthday and Mike truly captured everything I wanted in each illustration. He was very open to talking through illustrations and taking the time to understand exactly what I envisioned. I would 100% recommend Mike if you are looking for an illustrator.

Working with Mary Ann was a wonderful experience! She was quick to respond to feedback and did an incredible job of capturing the vibes of my story. I couldn't be happier with how the cover turned out!

Meredith is a consummate professional with critical eye for tiny punctuation, spelling and space errors that can really devastate a text. She caught so so many I never would have seen. I especially valued the positive feedback too!

Working with Diego was an outstanding experience from start to finish. He delivered a book cover that exceeded my expectations—not only visually stunning, but perfectly aligned with the tone and themes of my novel. His professionalism, responsiveness, and attention to detail made the entire process smooth and enjoyable. Diego took the time to understand my vision, offered insightful design direction, and communicated clearly at every stage. He met every deadline and delivered high-quality fil...

My choice of Melissa for my Developmental Editor could not have been more perfect for my debut novel! I am so impressed by her ability to understand the concept of the story but to also "hear" my voice and then apply what she understands to the editing. I am totally in line with her suggestions and am having a good time expanding the story to include them. I think it will be a much better "read" with these revisions. She has been a tremendous asset to my project and I look forward to the poss...

I cannot say enough good things about Yuliia and her team. The illustrations for my book were beyond anything I could have imagined. Yuliia is so kind, professional, and prompt with every response. The work was completed ahead of schedule on her end, and I truly will never go with anyone else again. I 100% recommend her!

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...

I absolutely love the creative work Katerina did! She was able to take my vision and create such an adorable piece of art! She was also very patient with my process and circumstances in terms of the due date. I would definitely choose to work with Katerina again!

This guy is the bee's knees. Understood my descriptions perfectly, like he was seeing right into my brain. Fun, and badass style. Has a real knack for drawing monsters. Professional and communicative and a cool dude. No notes.

There isn't enough space here to fully express how amazing it is to work with Hannah. Her skills are exceptional, her timing is perfect, and overall, her vibes are fantastic. Communication? Excellent. Her knowledge is clear in her work!!!! I've teamed up with Hannah twice, and I will definitely work with her again in the future.

Lucy was an absolute delight to work with for a developmental edit of my novel! She was a true professional in every aspect of the project - from communication, edits, to quality of work delivered. I was nervous about my first time working with an editor but it could not have been easier. Lucy clearly communicated what was to be expected and when. The notes she provided through her edit were thoughtful, insightful, and presented in a way that prevented me from getting overwhelmed. Her feedbac...

I absolutely loved working with Joanna, it is my first book and she was incredibly helpful guiding me through the process. Once I'm finished with the revisions I will be seeking her advice again as a Copyeditor. Highly recommend

Jim just completed an editorial assessment of my first draft of my first book. He completed this ahead of schedule, and his feedback was positive, constructive, and invaluable. With our follow-up call, I now have a plan to take the manuscript to the next level, with his continued support. I look forward to further collaboration with Jim, and ultimately the successful completion of this book.

Jennifer C. is a complete professional. I worked with her for developmental editing on my manuscript, and I don't know how the experience could have been better. She guided me through the entire process, communicated promptly, and made everything feel straightforward from start to finish. Even after delivering her edits, she reached out to let me know about a brief period when she'd be unavailable, just in case I had any questions. Jennifer provides exactly what every person who takes their ...
