Working with Victoria on my cover was such a pleasure. From the very start, she did something I didn't expect she actually read and asked questions about the book, and came to our early conversations with deep, thoughtful suggestions to help the vision and what I was trying to do. That care set the tone for everything that followed; she's a wonderful listener and a truly collaborative partner. The brief was a tricky one; it needed to hold real tension between bold and warm, professional and ...

Nicola was SO wonderful to work with! She very quickly responded to me, set a finish date, and finished *before* said date, which was wonderful. But most importantly, she sent me the most thoughtful notes that dove into plot, structure, character development, age range, marketability, and more. Everything I needed to know to help me make it the best it can possibly be! She even shared which house she thought it could be the best fit for, which I so appreciated. And she was just so lovely with...

It was an absolute pleasure working with Eva. Excellent translation. Highly recommended!

Liz is in a class by herself. It didn't hurt that we are, kind of, the same age (I'm older) and have a very simpatico writing style and approach to marketing, which is to say to not call it that since it seems to cheapen that big hunk of your soul that you laid out for all to judge. You are just seeking ways to amplify your voice and the heart of your book. She gave me SO MANY tools to do that, ones that I had no idea existed. She steered me away from big wastes of money on ads and other thi...

An excellent job as always. Anybody can be a graphic designer. Even I managed it to a reasonable standard. To be a book cover designer however is something entirely different, and Megan just 'gets' what my books are about. The covers achieve that difficult job of standing out, yet looking at home amongst other books of their type. The proof of the pudding is other writers seeing my book covers and passing compliments about how good they are.

I had the pleasure of working with Roberta to edit my book and design the cover, and I can't recommend her enough. She was incredibly patient and understanding, especially since I had lots of questions as a first-time author. Roberta worked within my budget and went above and beyond to help me with the formatting and overall presentation of my book. Thanks to her support and expertise, I felt confident and supported every step of the way. I'm so grateful for her help and highly recommend her ...

As a writer, our stories are precious to us. Reaching out to someone to bring that to life can be difficult for the artist. We have expectations, visions already in place. Rachel not only met my vision, but she exceeded it. These are not just words. She is extremely talented and a joy to work with. I would not only recommend her to everyone and anyone, but also come back again and again.

Camille was such a delight to work with. From our very first interaction, I felt supported and understood. Camille’s feedback was detailed, thoughtful, and showed a genuine interest in both the material itself and my aspirations for the project. They struck a wonderful balance between encouragement and constructive critique, and I came away with clearer direction, stronger confidence in the project, and a much better sense of how to move forward. I would absolutely recommend Camille to any wr...

Of the two books that I have had published now through Reedsy,, Tjaša has been my absolute favorite to work with! I can't say enough good things about her - extremely responsive, very professional, and a very good sense of creativity and ideas. I would never have come up with her great designs for my cover and interior!

The proof of my admiration for and gratitude to Jaime is the “Special Acknowledgement” of him that will go in the Spanish edition of my book, which reads as follows: “It was essential to me to have a Spanish version of my book. I wanted this vital, amazing and diverse community to have an opportunity to read the story in their own language. That required a translation as fluent and sensitive to Spanish speakers as I tried to achieve in the original for English speakers. I am deeply indebted t...

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 honestly couldn’t have asked for a better editor. From the beginning, I was looking for someone experienced with horror and also mindful of pricing, and he exceeded my expectations on both fronts. He was transparent and thoughtful with every batch he returned, offering honest feedback while remaining receptive to my revisions. As this was the first book I’ve ever written, it meant a great deal to have someone so reliable and supportive throughout the entire process. I would absolutely love ...

Exceptional Editorial Partner for Project With Tight Deadlines Working with Cynthia on The DAF Revolution: Making a Difference in Our Modern World was an outstanding experience from start to finish. This was a high-profile, content-heavy nonfiction book involving financial, legal, and philanthropic subject matter, and Cynthia handled it with clarity, precision, and editorial excellence. She brought a keen eye for structure, ensured consistency of tone and terminology, and asked smart questi...

Zuza is a tremendous illustrator and a true creative partner. She listens closely, asks thoughtful questions, and works with you to ensure every detail aligns with your vision. She approached my project with patience and professionalism, willing to revisit and refine ideas until they are exactly right. What began as a simple book cover commission grew into a larger collaboration that included a beautifully detailed map and several illustrations. Zuza helped me understand potential formatting...

Craig has provided excellent developmental feedback on the first draft of my novel 'Winterfylleth War'. I now have the opportunity to make significant improvements to my novel. I found the positive feedback encouraging, and I found the suggestions on how to improve to be insightful and clear. Craig was able to look at the novel as a standalone and as part of a series. I received detailed feedback on the Opening and the Ending, Commercial Viability, Structure, Plot, Emotional Intensity, as wel...
