As a first-time author, I was honestly very nervous going into this process and didn’t quite know what to expect. I was even nervous to show my manuscript to anyone, let alone a professional editor. From the very beginning, Sophie made me feel comfortable and supported. She approached my work with such care that I quickly knew she was the right person to help preserve my voice while enhancing the manuscript. What initially felt like a daunting process became something I genuinely enjoyed than...

Working with Tina was an exceptional experience. Her editing was precise, thoughtful, and incredibly efficient — she delivered the project much earlier than expected and with outstanding quality. She understood my writing instantly, improved clarity without changing my voice, and formatted the entire book in a clean, professional APA style. I especially appreciated her suggestions regarding visuals and structure, which showed how deeply she understood the material. Tina’s communication was ...

It was a pleasure to work with him. He gave some really sound advice, and I would recommend any author trying to get an agent, should go to him and get some help with the query letter. I've already had one bite so the proof is in the pudding! Thanks again, Matt!

Christie's feedback was concise, clear, and invaluable. I'm working on a rhyming book, and I couldn't have completed this to a high standard without her advice on metre and rhythm. She also advised on vocabulary, and while she made some suggestions for rewording, she helped me keep my own voice and style throughout. I can't thank Christie enough and will definitely be working with her again in the future.

Working with Ameesha has been an absolute pleasure. From the very first conversation I knew she was "the one". It was clear straight away that she totally “got” the project - the tone, the ambition, the structure - and she’s been exactly the right person to undertake the editorial review. Her feedback was thoughtful, constructive and always rooted in what will make the book clearer, stronger and more effective for readers. She strikes the right balance of offering honest critique while makin...

Working with Izabela was one of the most rewarding creative collaborations I have ever experienced. When I first began this project, I had a manuscript and a vision for how I wanted the book to feel, but I quickly realized that creating a book is about much more than simply placing words on a page. It is about creating an experience for the reader. Izabela understood that from the very beginning. What impressed me most was that she never approached the project as someone simply executing in...

Robin provided clear, productive editing for my upcoming book and I would work with her again. She provided insight into where I could add clarity, but also outlined where the book had significant impact. Thank you Ronin! I appreciate you helping me get this important book to a point where it can now be published. I'm grateful. Keep up the incredible work!

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 ...

Laurel's developmental edit was one of the most insightful and valuable pieces of feedback I've ever received on my writing. She didn't simply identify strengths and weaknesses. She understood the heart of the story I was trying to tell, and with greater clarity than I had myself. Her editorial report was thoughtful, perceptive, and remarkably precise. She pinpointed exactly where the manuscript could be strengthened while preserving everything that made it unique. Every recommendation felt ...

Exceptional.

I hired Kate to do an editorial assessment of my memoir. I chose her based on the excellent reviews she’s received and her experience with this genre. Working with Kate met—and exceeded—my already high expectations. The more I sit with her thorough and detailed assessment, the more my understanding of my story's strengths and how I can improve it deepens. Kate brought depth, sensitivity, and considerable skill to the process. She gave me invaluable high‑level direction along with practical, c...

Working with Krista was an amazing experience. I searched different sites and received several different quotes that I wasn't really eager to accept, until I came across Krista's profile and saw that she edited a book that I've recently read. As soon as I saw that, I knew she would be the perfect fit for my book. Receiving her offer was the icing on the cake. Everything that she offered was delivered and I am so very grateful. The process was very smooth and she provided feedback that has hel...

As a first-time author, handing my manuscript over to someone else was a little intimidating. Within the first few pages of Bryn's comments, I knew I had chosen the right editor. She has a wonderful ability to point out areas that can be strengthened while also celebrating what is already working. Her feedback was thoughtful, encouraging, and incredibly insightful. She never made me feel like I needed to rewrite my story or change my voice. Instead, she helped me see where I could dig a litt...

Working with Ana was absolutely amazing. She is extremely collaborative, brings a wonderful energy to her work, and provides a thoughtful perspective to the entire design. She did an incredible job interpreting my manuscript and creating new ways to showcase the content. She was very responsive and transparent, and provided a lot of project updates. Definitely recommend and can't wait to work with her again.

"Working with Alisson was an absolute pleasure! She is thorough, highly attentive to detail, and went above and beyond with her editorial feedback. She even delivered the final version 10 days ahead of the deadline! Her revisions truly elevated the quality of the manuscript while keeping my voice intact. Communication was seamless throughout. I highly recommend her services and look forward to working together again!"
