Gabriella was a sharp, efficient editing partner on my government art grant application. She worked with my tight schedule for a quick turnaround and helped me submit everything by the deadline despite broader uncertainties. As a non-native English–speaking academic, I felt fortunate to be working with someone who shares an arts and humanities background and understands the nuance of academic writing. I especially valued how her editing feedback was clear, respectful, and explained her rea...

I had the pleasure of working with Luca on both my book cover and interior design for my first book, and the experience exceeded expectations. As a first-time author, I needed someone with patient and knowledge to guide me through the design process, and Luca was exactly that. His communication was excellent throughout the engagement as he took the time to understand my visions, shared thoughtful feedback, and provided clear guidance every step of the way. Luca's technical expertise with fo...

Blair's skills were outstanding! She took my messy manuscript and turned it into a much better book. The Zoom call was a big plus as it allowed us to discuss messages, answer questions and dialog on my story. Highly recommended!!

John is an excellent editor with a sharp eye for detail and structure. He approached my manuscript with care, clarity, and genuine professional insight. His line edits were precise, his comments were thoughtful, and he consistently elevated the quality of my writing without ever diluting my voice. Communication was smooth throughout the collaboration, deadlines were honoured, and he provided more value than promised. I wouldn’t hesitate to work with him again.

Nina is an incredible editor. She goes above and beyond to make sure she knows exactly who you are as a writer and what goals you set out to achieve— to the extent that I can believe she is as invested in my story as I am. Feedback is clearly designed to help you achieve, and each critique well justified. Nina has a clear extensive knowledge of the literary industry, and will be honest about where your writing stands in the market. Her work is delivered in a timely manner. As a new writer, I ...

Ingrid did more than expected in editing my book. She went through my references one by one, finding errors and missing information. I did not expect that. We initially disagreed on the subtitle. We went round and round on the issue. I was convinced that the subtitle that I had come up with was the best. But after careful thought, I realized that her subtitle was the best for my book. I highly recommend her for book editing.

Working with Stephanie has been an incredibly positive experience. From the beginning, she was kind, compassionate, and deeply attuned to the needs of both my manuscript and me as a writer. She went above and beyond to offer guidance that was not only professional and insightful but also tailored to exactly what I needed — even when I wasn’t sure what that was myself. Stephanie created a space that felt safe, encouraging, and respectful, which was especially important to me given the persona...

My experience with Laura has been fantastic! She not only helped me improve my manuscript, but she also encouraged me when I felt overwhelmed or unsure. Laura helped me fix a boring backstory dump; she caught a POV problem in my climactic scene; and she offered guidance with my problematic dream sequences. In addition, Laura assisted me with the genre of my book. My manuscript was stuck solidly in a state of limbo between genres, but with Laura’s guidance and revision suggestions, I ...

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...

Peter was excellent to work with throughout the editorial process for Governance by Design. He presented as a professional, thoughtful and communicative with brought a high level of editorial expertise to the project process. One of the things I appreciated most was his ability to strengthen clarity, flow, structure, and readability while still preserving my authentic voice and the deeper themes woven throughout the book. The subject matter often involved complex ideas around governance, le...

So impressed with the whole experience working with Matthew. He was really outstanding throughout the process, went way above and beyond on everything from explaining every feature or use of the site to setting up or connecting to other related sites or services, and his extra work on the design. His communication was so clear and thorough, truly felt his care about the project. And the end result was tremendous and really fit my book and its world. Definitely looking forward to working with...

I absolutely loved working with Tania. I reached a point with my manuscript where I had completely lost direction and confidence, and she changed that for me. She took what was essentially a collection of blog posts and shaped it into a cohesive manuscript that truly looks and feels like a book. You can tell how much thought and care she put into the process, and I couldn’t be happier with the result. We had several meetings, and she was always engaged, encouraging, and insightful. She also ...

Collaborating with Sarah to edit my first novel was one of the best decisions I've made throughout this process. She was a pleasure to work with and I learned so much through her thoughtful comments. I would work with her again on future projects and highly recommend her.

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.

I hired Zuza for the cover design, interior design, and illustrations for my book Moon Pause, and she exceeded every expectation. From the start, she took the time to truly understand the project, bringing her own valuable insights to the creative process rather than simply executing instructions. She was a genuine collaborator. My book would not be what it is without her talent and dedication. I wholeheartedly recommend Zuza to any author looking for a designer and illustrator who will bring...
