I’m so glad I chose Jennifer to edit my book. She is incredibly detail-oriented and responsible. She has a way of catching those hidden mistakes between the lines that I had completely missed. You can really tell she loves what she does because she puts so much heart and energy into the work. She was always responsive and kept in touch throughout the whole project. I love how she’s both encouraging and a great critic—she strikes a perfect balance between highlighting strengths and addressing...

Richard is brilliant! I came to him with a project that I felt wasn't working, but I couldn't really articulate what I thought was problematic. Richard's editorial input was amazing -- he had great analytical insights and clarified for me what the underlying issues were. And he provided such helpful thoughts about how to go forward. I came to him feeling so disheartened about this book, not knowing what to do, and now I'm completely energized and have a very clear vision of where I need to go...

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!

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...

Working with Claire has been an incredible experience. She brought such care, insight, and attention to detail to my manuscript, and her feedback was both constructive and encouraging. Claire has a real gift for helping an author bring out the best in their work while ensuring clarity, flow, and consistency. Her communication was always clear and timely, and she went above and beyond to make sure the editing process felt smooth and collaborative. I felt fully supported every step of the way,...

Amanda's work was incredible and invaluable to the completion of my manuscript. She was professional, efficient and an excellent communicator. Without a doubt the best editor I have ever collaborated with!

Kristin is an amazing editor who made the process a lot easier and did a great job helping me. As a first time author, where I thought this was only ever a pipe dream, it was nerve wracking handing someone basically my heart on a page. She was very compassionate and supportive, but honest and critical in the best way. She has an impeccable understanding of poetry and how to best get your point across to the reader. Always responds to emails promptly and asks important questions that make you ...

Working with Tania was such a positive experience. Over the six months we worked together, she was incredibly personable and made me feel like she was invested not only in my novel, but in me as a writer. We had wonderful conversations that sometimes went beyond the manuscript itself, and she regularly recommended articles, podcasts, and other novels that helped me think more deeply about what I was writing and what I wanted the book to become. Her biggest contribution to my novel actually ca...

Charlotte was an absolute joy to work with! From start to finish, she was incredibly timely, thoughtful, and thorough. We truly feel SO lucky to have found her. Her feedback was detailed, insightful, and incredibly valuable. You can tell how much care she puts into her work, and her expertise helped strengthen our manuscript in ways we hadn’t even considered. Throughout the entire process, we felt like our work was in such capable and caring hands. We honestly couldn’t have asked for a bett...

Claire didn't just edit my book; She transformed it. Exceptional work! I came to Claire with a manuscript for my book, "UPGRADE," that I was proud of, but I knew it was missing something. It had the science, the data, and the structure, but it lacked the vital 'human' element that makes a book truly connect with a reader. Claire's work was nothing short of transformative. She took my solid draft and elevated it into a polished, professional, and deeply engaging book that I am now thrilled to...

Working with Erin has been an absolute joy. She is a truly great professional — thoughtful, insightful, and incredibly thorough. Her editorial feedback on The Brayhill Chronicles was clear, constructive, and full of care. Erin managed to highlight exactly what needed refining while keeping my confidence in the story intact. She gave me more than one real lightbulb moment — those “of course!” insights that instantly make everything click. What I appreciated most was her ability to point out th...

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...

Zena was everything I hoped for in a developmental editor — insightful, thorough and genuinely invested in helping the story reach its potential. Her feedback went far beyond surface notes, she understood the heart of my project and gave me both the tools and the motivation to keep going. The depth of her editorial report, the thoughtfulness of her comments and her ability to balance critique with encouragement were exceptional. It will take me time to reflect and revise, but I already feel ...

I enjoyed working with Pascale Hutton very much. Her response to my request was prompt outlining clearly time frame and cost. Any questions I did have, were answered quickly. As my book is based on an historical figure and there were few images of the woman in question, Pascale had very little to work with but she understood the character, the time in which the character lived and was able to transmit that to the creation of a stunning cover. Pascale's first "draft" was the one I chose as she...

My project is not finished but up til now all my interactions with Tom have been enormously useful. I chose Tom because he seemed to respond with some actual interest in my story and not with an 'Okay, I could do this." sort of comment. I feel that Tom took the time to get into the tone and spirit of my story. He gave me valuable feedback on what he understood as he read and what was confusing. I don't want to confuse my 8 year old reader! I hope to continue to work with Tom until this p...
