Working with Hannah has been one of the best decisions I’ve made for my book! From the very beginning, she was thoughtful, thorough, and deeply invested in both the story and my growth as a writer. Her editorial letter was incredibly insightful and pushed me in all the right ways. She has a rare ability to see the heart of a story, identify what’s already working, and then clearly articulate how to strengthen it without ever making you feel discouraged or overwhelmed. Her line edits were de...

Wow. I highly recommend Lee. I've just finished working with him on my first book. He's top notch. Very creative, professional, highly skilled, talented, positive, helpful, and encouraging too. I really enjoyed the process of working with him. He went above and beyond giving me helpful tips since he's published some books himself, and he patiently worked with me as I try to fit publishing my first book; Capacity, Escape Your Invisible Limits, into my busy life. The cover that Lee designed is ...

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...

I worked with Holly on my memoir, a book about a tough childhood and building a business from the ground up, and she was fantastic. Detail-oriented to a level I didn't know existed. She caught everything at the line level, but she also saw the bigger picture: the conceptual storytelling, the arc, where the narrative needed to breathe and where it needed to move. I ended up rewriting large sections of the manuscript based on her recommendations. Every one of those rewrites made the final produ...

As a first-time author, I wasn't even really sure what I needed. A proofreader? A content editor? Joy has guided me from the very beginning, offering invaluable information and feedback, sharing her own experiences with the industry, too. It's been a wonderful experience and I am so happy I found Joy.

Ingrid did more than expected in editing my book. She went through my references one by one, finding errors and missing information. I did not expect that. We initially disagreed on the subtitle. We went round and round on the issue. I was convinced that the subtitle that I had come up with was the best. But after careful thought, I realized that her subtitle was the best for my book. I highly recommend her for book editing.

Heather is truly a manuscript Goddess. She's been elevating novels for a long time and it shows in her work. Her natural insight for character development and story trajectory is on point. She provides a chapter by chapter analysis that you can use as a guide to your manuscript. It was extremely helpful to know exactly which chapters heighten the novel and what's missing/needed from other chapters. My manuscript will take a huge leap forward because of her talent and grace. Thank you to Reeds...

As a first-time author, I was nervous about handing my manuscript to an editor — but working with Brooke turned out to be an amazing experience. Her detailed comments, practical advice, and big-picture insights helped me see my book in a whole new light. She’s quick to respond, easy to talk to, and truly cares about her clients. I’m so grateful for her help!

I can't say enough good things about Catherine. She took my messy first draft that was more stream of consciousness than a manuscript and transformed it into a book I am genuinely proud of. She has an exceptional ability to preserve an author's voice while bringing clarity, structure, and flow to the writing. Throughout the process, she was thoughtful, insightful, encouraging, and incredibly professional. I truly couldn't have asked for a better editor, and I wouldn't trust my work with anyon...

Working with Jessica was an incredible experience from start to finish. She brought the world of my story to life with warmth, emotion, and professionalism, and the final artwork exceeded my expectations. Her communication was clear, thoughtful, and collaborative throughout the entire process. She listened carefully to creative direction while also offering strong artistic instincts that elevated the book beyond what I imagined. Every spread feels cohesive and intentional, and she handled sym...

Jennifer is my favorite, and she holds a special place in my heart (and author journey) because she is one of the first people who saw the potential in me and my writing! I worked with her several years ago on two children's books, and I told her that when I was ready, I'd bring her a novel worth her experience and time. This WIP is that novel! I am so elated and proud that she is my editor, and I can't wait to work with her again on my next project! She is extremely responsive (always has be...

I loved working with Diletta! She delivered exactly what I asked for, and went above and beyond to provide options and opportunities for collaboration. I would definitely recommend her.

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.

Working with Sarah was a dream. Having gone as far with my manuscript as I could with the help of writer friends (and a writing teacher), I wanted someone with a background in publishing who would help me dig deep and see the novel in a new light. Sarah more than exceeded my expectations, providing a lengthy editorial letter that addressed every issue I'd wondered about and several I had not, as well as extensive, detailed, and extremely thoughtful notes in the manuscript itself. After a coup...

Gary is an exceptional editor. He provided my copy edit at lightning speed, getting my novel back to me with professional, well-documented edits. Would highly recommend for any authors seeking a fast, well done, and affordable copy edit. Gary is the best.
