Working with Jenny was one of the best decisions I made for my manuscript. She brought a rare combination of precision and warmth to my memoir — the kind of editor who clearly loves both language and the people behind it. She was meticulous without being heavy-handed, catching the kinds of details that are easy to overlook when you've been living inside your own story for years. Tense consistency was a particular area where she pushed me — gently but persistently — and honestly, I was a littl...

Louise did an excellent job. I would highly recommend her to anyone.

I am so glad to have had the opportunity to work with Bryn. Her edits and recommendations were on point and helped me achieve a level of polish on my manuscript I didn't think I would be able to reach. She was both thorough and speedy delivering more than I had expected in a short window of time. I will definitely be coming back to her for help on future projects. I can not say enough about what a pleasure she was to work with.

Sarah is the platonic ideal of an editor. As a writer, it can be difficult to navigate feedback while trying to stay true to your ~artistic vision~. The beauty of Sarah's editing work is that it is so in-depth you can just feel she is giving her all to trying to understand what the book is trying to do and being completely honest (in the kindest way) about what it needs to get there. You can also feel a big, beating heart at the center of her feedback: her love for books and good storytelling...

Seth was truly amazing to work with. He took the time to understand our project goals and what we wanted to accomplish. From the initial discussions and outlining to the completed book, Seth was collaborative, responsive, and delivered a high-quality children's book on time. I recommend collaborating with Seth on your project!

Working with Nina Bruhns was a fantastic learning experience from beginning to end, and one I would recommend without hesitation to any writer, but especially to debut authors finding their footing. As a first-time novelist, I wasn't entirely sure what professional editorial feedback would look like or how it would feel to receive it. Nina understood exactly where I was in the writing process and met me there with patience, insight, and genuine encouragement. She provided two invaluable doc...

This is my second collaboration with Clint, and it was just as easy and seamless as the first time. He again surpassed my expectations and created something that far exceeded what I had imagined for the project. I look forward to working with him again in the spring, and hopefully for many additional projects to come.

Felicty went above and beyond my expections. She's a great editor with a very keen eye for detail. She was direct, positive and professional.

Holly provided a developmental edit on my 68,000-word memoir. She delivered a thorough editorial letter plus over 100 inline comments, but what impressed me most was how deeply she engaged with the material. She didn't just fix things, she helped me understand what the book was actually about. Her structural feedback was specific and actionable: where to open, what to move, which characters needed more presence. She identified tense inconsistencies I'd been blind to and gave me grammar lesso...

Brooke is incredible! She has taken my writing to a level that I didn’t know was possible. Working with her has been nothing short of amazing. I’m very grateful for her expertise. I now have writing that I am confident putting out for the world to see.

Working with Robin was exactly what my story needed! Her honesty and industry knowledge are what I have been searching for, and I didn't even realize it until I got her feedback. I still can't believe how much her advice improved my story. I absolutely look forward to working with her on more projects.

I cannot possibly say enough positive things about my experience working with Felicity. Her services were extremely affordable and she was accessible and prompt. She was thorough yet astute and cut right to the chase with her feedback, identifying areas for improvement but also highlighting a lot of positives that gave me so much more confidence about going forward with my work. I felt like she really “got” my story and her observations and suggestions were all spot on and true to the voice a...

Elin is great. Respectful, cheery, and takes feedback like a champ.

I want to express my sincere gratitude to Charles for his excellent work in helping to revise my manuscript. His qualities are many: He was very friendly and personal, which made the communication enjoyable. Of course, his editorial expertise was key to the task at hand. I learned much about writing from him. His suggestions were always relevant, helpful, and challenging too! The memos and document exchanges were very timely, which allowed me to stay on schedule. Charles expressed a keen inte...

Very attentive and thorough. Will use again 🖤
