This is my second book with David, and once again his editing is exceptional. For developmental editing, his feedback is always spot-on, thoughtful, honest, and encouraging. He clearly understands the voice of the story, and his insightful suggestions provided a clear roadmap for revisions. In copy editing and line editing, his meticulous attention to details combined with his thoughtful push for more clarity and consistency has beautifully elevated the book. I look forward to working with hi...

Gabriella was a sharp, efficient editing partner on my government art grant application. She worked with my tight schedule for a quick turnaround and helped me submit everything by the deadline despite broader uncertainties. As a non-native English–speaking academic, I felt fortunate to be working with someone who shares an arts and humanities background and understands the nuance of academic writing. I especially valued how her editing feedback was clear, respectful, and explained her rea...

Elyse is an exceptional story editor. Writing is such a personal journey, and yet, in the end you need to share so much at each stage with someone you trust to get it right. Elyse guided me to find the emotional layer and voice to help the story find a life of its own. Her edits were always on point, but before the edits there is critical work to find the story--the plot and the characters--which goes into whole mysterious realm that is particular to story writing. A good soup is ready when i...

I have worked with Veronica in the past and will continue to do so in the future. She is very kind, patient, and quick to respond to messages. She is also a creative problem solver and tackles any speed bumps that arise in the book publishing process with finesse and positivity.

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...

Elaini was wonderful to work with and very professional. She was sure to answer all of my questions in a timely fashion and her attention to detail made my project the best version it could be. I am very grateful. She finished early as well.

I worked with Ben on my query package and opening pages, and it was the most valuable step in my querying process. His feedback was genuinely practical. He suggested some great edits and explained why they mattered, from the lens of a former writing agent. He also provides two guides, one on writing a query letter and one on finding an agent. Those guides alone are worth the price. They gave me a much stronger sense of how to approach the industry strategically. My materials are sharper and...

Izabela Ciesinska is a true artist in every sense of the word. Her illustrations for Claire and the Chatty Daisy are not just beautiful; they are a masterclass in visual storytelling. As someone who has spent a lifetime in this industry, I can tell you that finding an illustrator who understands the heart of a manuscript so completely is a rare gift. From the very first page, Izabela's vibrant, hand-drawn style brings Claire's world to life in a way that is both warm and inviting. Her use of...

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...

Emily was a complete joy to work with. She was prompt, communicative, and exceptionally organized throughout the entire process. Her attention to detail was impeccable, and she made what could have been a complex formatting project feel seamless from start to finish. I always felt informed, supported, and confident that the book was in capable hands. I would happily work with her again and highly recommend her to any author looking for a skilled and reliable formatter.

Katherine was the first editor I had ever worked with, and I’m happy with my decision. Katherine understood the vision I had for my story and provided suggestions to improve it while still keeping its essence. The comments throughout the manuscript were detailed (and sometimes fun to read!). The feedback made me eager to work on my story rather than feel overwhelmed. I would gladly work with Katherine again for future books:)

Sakshi was a fantastic collaborator in bringing my project and vision to life. We went through several rounds of edits, and she consistently took constructive feedback with professionalism and care, delivering results that matched exactly what I had envisioned. I would gladly work with her again and highly recommend her to other authors.

Working with Nathan was a breath of fresh air. After a difficult experience with an editor who repeatedly missed deadlines and made vague promises, Nathan was everything I needed: reliable, communicative, and completely professional. He delivered polished files exactly when he said he would, with no surprises or delays. His calm, thoughtful approach made the process smooth and reassuring. I’m truly grateful for his work — and would recommend him without hesitation to anyone looking for someon...

Pauline was wonderful and completed the project on time. The illustrations were better than I could ever imagine. She is a wonderful artist who brought my book to life. Can't thank her enough!

Chet was a professional talent on so many levels and I could not have had a better experience. He made me feel safe and secure with our discussions, navigated me through the process, and offered very strategic advice and/or edits without making me feel pressured. We were able to have a warm yet professional relationship too which I think is very important for the end product. Chet is a strong recommend - his talent is incredible and without him, would not have had the confidence to bring thi...
