Claudie is a fantastic artist and collaborator! She illustrated all the artwork for my children's picture book, bringing it to life with fun, colorful illustrations that perfectly match the tone of the story. She was very professional, super responsive and quick, and always welcomed feedback with an open and collaborative attitude. I'd recommend her in a heartbeat!

Working with John was a fantastic experience. He brought a sharp editorial eye, offered thoughtful suggestions without changing my voice, and truly helped elevate my manuscript. His attention to detail, professionalism, and understanding of story structure made this a smooth and rewarding collaboration. Highly recommend.

It was fantastic. High quality work, on time. Nothing to add, Alexandra is the best!

Congratulations to Reedsy for including in its roster a professional with the excellence of Dr. Charles Davidson, at once a scholar, an experienced editor, and a distinguished author himself. This collaboration very much exceeded my expectations. Without ever condescending, Dr. Davidson read my offering, listened to my needs and hopes, and fashioned a comprehensive response that answered my questions and provided the specific feedback that I had requested. Some editors slow down a project wit...

Liz is in a class by herself. It didn't hurt that we are, kind of, the same age (I'm older) and have a very simpatico writing style and approach to marketing, which is to say to not call it that since it seems to cheapen that big hunk of your soul that you laid out for all to judge. You are just seeking ways to amplify your voice and the heart of your book. She gave me SO MANY tools to do that, ones that I had no idea existed. She steered me away from big wastes of money on ads and other thi...

Pascale was a pleasure to work with. She understood the brief well. She was happy to show me modified designs as we discussed various options along the way. She worked to my deadlines and was quick to respond to messages. I am very pleased with the result and feel proud to launch it into the world this summer.

Joy was amazing to work on. She gave me clear advice that's going to make my novel a lot better. She also completed the project early, and checked in with me multiple times during the process.

Working with Frances was one of the best decisions I made for my manuscript. From the beginning, she gave me honest, constructive feedback that really pushed me as a writer, which was exactly what I needed. Her notes were thoughtful and clear, and she never just pointed out what wasn’t working without explaining why, in a way that clicked for me. She was responsive, professional, and easy to communicate with throughout the process. I felt very supported and could tell she genuinely loves what...

Agatha’s dev edit on Unbidden is the kind of work that makes you feel both seen as a writer and capable as a craftsperson. She read my manuscript like a reader and then diagnosed it like an editor, with total command of narrative mechanics (pacing, viewpoint discipline, structure), plus a sharp instinct for what my story is really about: the terrifying intimacy of being “used” by something bigger than you. Her notes are deeply specific, actionable, and cross-referenced in a way that makes rev...

Lucy was lovely to work with. She identified a core question straight away that needed to be answered while helping me with my book proposal. She was responsive and engaged and her helpful questions allowed me to find the focus of the proposal and polish it from there. I'm so grateful for her input and help!

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...

She was amazing and I recommend her to anyone

JC Perry was great to work with, she worked out issues as they came up. I'm new to the process so it was a learning experience. I'm waiting to see the final product on IngramSpark. The Amazon KDP looks great. I will used JC Perry's services again on my second book if she is still doing this type of work.

Working with Maria Scala is the best decision I've made as an author. Over the past six months, Maria has guided me through developmental editing, line editing, and proofreading across three separate projects. By the end of this journey, I think she knew my memoir better than me! Maria challenged me when I needed it, encouraged me when self-doubt crept in, and helped shape a deeply personal story with expertise, professionalism, skill, and compassion. Her edits always elevated the manuscr...

If you are reading this review because, like me a few months ago, you are dipping your toes into getting professional help with your book, then all I can say is DO IT! I read through all of Mark’s reviews, and I knew he was the type of editor I wanted and needed. From the moment I made contact, I felt at ease. He is enthusiastic and genuine, but he doesn’t sugar-coat either. The thing I found with Mark is that he really understands the journey. I do not know the writing world, and I was hone...
