Working with Sean Strain was one of the most valuable decisions I made in bringing The Inner Advantage to life. His editorial instinct is precise without being prescriptive, his feedback comes with the kind of clarity that moves a manuscript forward rather than sideways, and his ability to adapt to the rhythm of a project that kept evolving showed a professionalism that is genuinely rare. Sean never imposed his voice on mine. He sharpened it. If you are a writer looking for an editor who resp...

Working with Matthew was a terrific experience. He was communicative, professional, and deeply attentive to detail. I always felt he was invested in the success of my project, and he brought valuable knowledge from his background that helped him maintain sharp focus on the particulars of mine. Matthew caught tiny errors that had eluded me multiple times, offered suggestions for clarity with my audience in mind, and ensured everything aligned with my publisher’s expectations. He delivered ahea...

Lucia is amazing! I have used her for multiple edits now, and she never disappoints me, always going above and beyond. Never late, always responsive. Wonderful feedback and edits. I always expect my work to be nearly there after going through it thirty times, and Lucia still finds all my many, many mistakes I hadn't noticed. I highly recommend her. You will not be disappointed.

Working with Duncan was a very positive experience. He approached the manuscript with a high level of care and respect for the voice of the work. His edits focused on clarity, flow, and consistency without altering the underlying tone or philosophy. What stood out most was his ability to recognize what the writing was doing and support it rather than reshape it. His suggestions, especially around paragraph structure and readability, made the material more accessible while keeping the integrit...

Working with Emma was an absolutely phenomenal experience. She is kind, responsive, and wonderfully honest. What sets Emma apart is the time she spends upfront getting to know your vision. She tailored her feedback directly to our goals, and because she built such a strong foundation of trust, her critiques were easy to handle and immediately elevated our story. On top of her exceptional editorial eye, Emma has an elite understanding of the traditional publishing industry. Thanks to her, we a...

Edward is patient, kind and professional, and his phenomenal portfolio speaks for itself. If I clearly knew what I wanted, he took the idea and made it look incredible. If I wasn't sure, he came up with great solutions. I couldn't be happier with my book's cover and interior art, and can't wait to publish soon. Thank you!

I am a writer so it takes a lot for me to say I struggle to find the words to describe how over the moon I am with Baris's work on my book. During the journey of writing, sharing with editors and beta readers, no one has given me a more detailed and accurate response to my work. It was like he had known me for years. I felt like he just got it. My book is a bit dark, satirical, takes a humorous look at the serious topic of death, murder, the afterlife. It is not easy to explain or descri...

I feel very grateful to have been able to work with someone as experienced as Kathy. She brings deep professional insight across all levels of the writing process, and has the ability to really laser in on the story, its issues, and the potential resolutions. In short, the feedback she gave me has catapulted my project forward so that I feel much more in the drivers seat of my story, and my writing. I am chomping at the bit to continue implementing her editorial suggestions. And in case you ...

This is my first childrens book, and David was amazing to work with from start to finish, his experience really was so valuable to me and made the whole project so smooth and effortless. He really understood my vision and delivered the most beautiful and alive illustrations for my book. He has a great ability to create characters and give so much expression and personality to them. I plan on doing a series of these and will be for sure using him again. I highly recommend him!

Anne took the rough draft of my first scholarly book manuscript and helped me ready it for submission. Because it is my first book and I am not an academic, I needed a lot of help with the references. Anne's knowledge and experience was invaluable. She helped me clarify technical points that required fine tuning and was exceptionally thorough with her editing. I accepted her proposed changes largely across the board because she had put much effort into trying to understand my novel posits an...

It's the second time I've worked with Rozi - she did an amazing copy-edit and polished the manuscript to standards. I'm really happy with the result and look forward collaboration with her a third time.

Working with Adrienne was an absolutely transformative experience for my manuscript. She was amazing and far more than just helpful; she possesses a unique talent for seeing the bigger picture of a story. When I came to her, my plot was a collection of disconnected ideas and scenes. Adrienne skillfully helped me weave those threads together into a cohesive and compelling narrative. Her insights into structuring the story were invaluable. She identified where the pacing lagged, suggested turn...

Rebecca was a pleasure to work with. She completed the work on time (actually, ahead of schedule!) and in a professional manner. She did a thorough check of all the (many) historical, geographic, and linguistic references that I made and suggested numerous corrections. Her recommended edits aided me in smoothing out my work, making it less repetitive, and making it more cohesive overall. Once she provided me with the file that she proofread, she remained very responsive and happily answer...

An excellent job as always. Anybody can be a graphic designer. Even I managed it to a reasonable standard. To be a book cover designer however is something entirely different, and Megan just 'gets' what my books are about. The covers achieve that difficult job of standing out, yet looking at home amongst other books of their type. The proof of the pudding is other writers seeing my book covers and passing compliments about how good they are.

Peter was excellent to work with throughout the editorial process for Governance by Design. He presented as a professional, thoughtful and communicative with brought a high level of editorial expertise to the project process. One of the things I appreciated most was his ability to strengthen clarity, flow, structure, and readability while still preserving my authentic voice and the deeper themes woven throughout the book. The subject matter often involved complex ideas around governance, le...
