Working with Steve K. at KUHN Design Group was one of the best decisions I made in publishing my debut book, Healing Without Shame: Faith, Mental Health, and the Courage to Be Honest. From the very first conversation, Steve brought professionalism, clarity, and genuine craftsmanship to every aspect of the project. Steve designed both the cover and the interior of my book, and the results exceeded every expectation. The cover is stunning! The imagery, the color palette, and the typography all...

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...

Phil is the consummate copy editing professional. He is a grammarian and a wordsmith. I feel fortunate to have found him. Thank you, Reedsy! Phil made my manuscript tighter, more engaging and more readable. I give him my highest recommendation. I only hope he doesn't feel the necessity to copy edit this note. He'll find all kinds of errors, I'm sure.

Working with Holly and Agustin has been a genuine pleasure. When I asked to connect with both of them, I was met by two people who are deeply invested in the project, care about the details, and are always willing to help. Their dedication really shows. I'll absolutely be working with them again — and I'd recommend them to anyone without hesitation. Cheers!

First, I want to say what a delight it was to meet Ragav. He was extremely professional and gave the impression he loved his work. He produced an honest, insightful critic which was followed by an in depth discussion of the manuscript. I would highly recommend him as an editor without reservation.

My experience with Dan was exceptional and outstanding in every way. He helped me transform my rough manuscript into a much more polished, coherent and commercial product. His insights and comments were very helpful and productive. He knows how a story should be told and his organizational and formatting skills are readily apparent. He is able to develop a great working relationship that is very collaborative and his communication skills are highly developed. I couldn't be more satisfied with...

Alicia has been a pleasure to work with. She keeps me updated regularly and responds promptly to my questions. Her feedback on my initial work was incredibly valuable, providing me with the material and references I needed to move forward. I expressed my nerves about sharing my work, as it was my first time, and she reassured me that it was perfectly fine. We collaborated on the initial feedback professionally, which inspired me to expand my novella into a full novel. Overall, I am very happy...

Elizabeth was Incredibly efficient and diligent in her work. Not only this, but she also responded whenever I had a request. I honestly can’t recommend her highly enough and will be using her again for my next book.

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,...

Laura's editorial report was thoughtful, incredibly detailed and constructive. It was clear that she had taken the time to really understand what I was trying to achieve with the novel. I appreciated her ability to identify areas that could potentially cause problems when submitting to agents or publishers, including things I hadn't necessarily recognised myself. Her comments on characterisation in particular gave me a new perspective on my opening chapters and have helped me see how I can s...

Robert has done 13 cover projects for me and all of them have been above and beyond my expectations, but this last one with the book The Last Shadow of Eden Genuinely surprised me. Actually, I was blown away by the quality of all the samples offered. His grasp Of the book's thematic Arch was nothing short of brilliant. I cannot give a strong enough recommendation for Robert. He's the best.

Jaime was great! She is easy to work with and responds quickly. She made sure to follow up with me ahead of the date the work was supposed to start to see if I had any questions and confirm the timeline. Her edits are thoughtful and professional. She truly wants to see her client's books succeed and even took the time to review my book blurb and second epilogue, which I didn't finish until later on. I would definitely recommend her as an editor.

I give Nina Roy the highest marks possible in all areas. She's simply amazing and I cannot say enough great things about her. Her work far exceeded my expectations- she praises what is good and takes the time and care to discuss what doesn't. Her suggestions about how to fix problem areas are of great help to me. Nina is so thorough and all her communqués just bubble with dedication to be of service too her client. I think she's a fabulous asset to my book and well worth the money that was re...

It was a true pleasure collaborating with Lucy on the proofreading of my first spy thriller. She delivered outstanding work with meticulous attention to detail and went above and beyond her role—helping me troubleshoot issues with a program I wasn’t familiar with. Lucy was consistently available, responded promptly to my messages, and always met deadlines. Her professionalism, dedication, and commitment are beyond question. Thank you, Lucy, for your exceptional contribution.

Susan is the consummate professional; she communicates well, seeks to understand the author's intent and is an excellent editor. She has the rare ability to simplify and translate technical concepts, making them more accessible to readers. Highly recommended.
