Phillip was a real pleasure to work with. He was endlessly patient with us as we navigated our way through doing a job like this for the first time. His advice was spot on. The final result looks terrific. The author is thrilled.

I’m a first time author and selected Andrea based on her profile details. She was amazing to work with. She paid attention to the finest detail. Her feedback was clear. She culminated very well, meeting all deadlines. She was patient with me as I navigated writing for the first time. I can’t wait to work with her again on future publications.

My new website looks great and performs all of the requirements I needed. Thanks Ioana!

Working with Gary was an absolute game changer in my project. His attention to small mistakes were incredibly helpful for my project to feel smooth and nicer to read. He was incredibly supportive of my project and I am super happy to have worked with Gary and would definitely recommend and would love to work with on future projects.

Erin was tremendously helpful. Her very constructive criticism is serious, and because she offers feedback from the POV of both a professional editor/writer, and 12 year old reader (not all editors can do this well), the edit is invaluable. She enabled me to see what wasn’t working, why, and what to do about it. Will be returning to Erin for more help soon.

Working with Clint was hands down one of the best decisions I’ve made for my book. From the first conversation, Clint understood exactly what I was trying to create, not just visually, but emotionally. He didn’t just design a cover; he translated the story's soul into something that feels powerful and cinematic. The level of detail, the composition, the typography, all of it was executed at a true publisher level. What impressed me most was his ability to listen and then elevate the vision ...

Ross’s judgment is spot-on—both on what works and what doesn’t. He’s picked up on things I’d become blind to, which is exactly what I needed from a fresh set of eyes. At the same time, there are several places where his suggested solutions are very close to the ones I’d been circling myself. That combination makes me feel he’s really in tune with the project and understands what the book is trying to do.

I had a great experience working with Daniel on The One-Star Guest. From the beginning, he understood exactly what I was trying to accomplish with the book and, just as importantly, understood my voice and sense of humor. His feedback was thoughtful, detailed, and genuinely improved the manuscript without trying to turn it into something it wasn’t. He pointed out areas that needed work, offered smart suggestions, and gave me the freedom to decide what ultimately belonged in the book. I used ...

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...

SEES THE WHOLE STORY: Angela tracked characters, chronology, injuries, objects, and overall cause and effect across my entire manuscript. For example, a named character seemed to suddenly appear midway through my story. Angela conducted what I can only describe as an FBI-grade manuscript investigation, tracing him backward through simple, brief descriptions separated by dozens of pages and multiple chapters until she found his first unnamed appearance. EXPLAINS THE WHY: Angela doesn't just id...

This was my third time working with Eleanor, and it was the third book in a series. She remembered details from books one and two, and did an amazing job of making sure that the third book aligned with each. Her suggestions are always spot-on, and I appreciate her attention to detail. I would definitely work with her again!

Katt is an extremely talented artist. I love the work he did for me and can't wait to see what he comes up with for the next book.

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...

What a great experience this was! As a first-time author, it far exceeded my expectations. I didn’t know what to expect, or just how much her guidance would elevate my manuscript. She led me through the process with kindness and skill—not only helping improve the book itself, but helping me grow as a writer. She genuinely cared about both my story and my success as an author. Highly recommended.

My choice of Melissa for my Developmental Editor could not have been more perfect for my debut novel! I am so impressed by her ability to understand the concept of the story but to also "hear" my voice and then apply what she understands to the editing. I am totally in line with her suggestions and am having a good time expanding the story to include them. I think it will be a much better "read" with these revisions. She has been a tremendous asset to my project and I look forward to the poss...
