Kate goes above and beyond on all collaborations. I've worked with her twice now. The editorial review she gave me amazing insights into how I could improve not just my current manuscript but my overall writing. Suggestions are always helpful with reasons given. The line/copy edit collaboration has helped me to improve tone and style, stop repetition and fix everything from grammar to insights into character, making my progression fantasy seem more real. Kate sprinkles support and helpful ...

Working with Cynthia has been an exceptional experience. She combined a sharp editorial eye with genuine care for my project. Her revisions made my manuscript feel more robust, polished, and true to my vision. She not only strengthened the structure and flow of the work but also provided clear, thoughtful guidance on formatting and consistency, which will make the final book much stronger. Cynthia is professional, detail-oriented, and supportive throughout the process. She balanced encourage...

I am thrilled about the collaboration I had with George Stevens. He designed the most beautiful cover for my debut book, The Long Way Here and the books layout and design are more amazing than I could have ever imagined. The book launched earlier this week and I've been receiving positive feedback about the book's look and feel. I'm am extremely pleased with the way the book turned out. I am so grateful for George's expertise and self-publishing knowledge. He was so easy to work with and extr...

Brittany did an excellent job editing my manuscript. The line edits were exactly what I was looking for. What sets her apart are her suggestions. She provided valuable advice on how I can improve the mechanics of my writing. And she understands where I am as a story teller and offered concrete suggestions on how I can improve. She did not overwhelm me with advice and let sections of my manuscript breath. Her edits and feedback are well worth her rate. I would not hesitate to recommend her. I'...

Exceptional talent, impeccable professionalism, and a truly wonderful person to work with. Louise took my book from manuscript to masterpiece with remarkable attention to detail and artistic excellence. She consistently went above and beyond, delivering outstanding work on time while making the entire process smooth and enjoyable. Her creativity, dedication, and kindness made a lasting impression on me. Without hesitation, I can say that Louise exceeded every expectation. She is a rare gem ...

Megan created a cover that presents the suspense of my novel in a unique way, while also capturing a secret of the story. Megan is such a great communicator and I was never left wondering where we were in the project. I was proud to include her name as the designer of my cover in my published novel.

Sharon was an absolute delight to work with. She kept me updated as she worked through my manuscript and was available for amendment feedback as well. Her comments were constructive and thoughtfully worded – something I really appreciated as a first-time author. As well as grammar, punctuation and word usage, she helped tighten up and improve the flow of my prose, and also pointed out where things got a little vague. I feel so much more confident in my writing thanks to her insight and I will...

Alejandro is a dark fantasy ace. My book cover had two different versions before I decided to invest in his services, and I only regret not having done this earlier. I left the concept and art direction up to Alejandro, providing minimal input, and the outcome was incredible. The previous covers were performing at around 40% of click-through average, and the new cover is already at 120%. Prompt responses, quick turnaround, and, most importantly, a passion + talent combo that exceeded my expe...

If it were possible to give you six stars, we would. Robin was incredibly professional and helpful through the entire process. She went above and beyond in every sense, taking the time to clearly explain what services she offered in clear, plain language, and offered incredibly helpful advice even before we began the collaboration. The report she produced is a fantastic resource that we're going to be referenced constantly. Robin answered our questions quickly, and was always happy to provide...

Miriam was FANTASTIC. I appreciated her valubable detailed feedback and constructive criticism, and her availibility to answer questions so I could better understand the feedback. Highly recommended!

I consider Maite of Copper Fox a champion in my career as a writer. That is how powerful she is. She combines hard-won expertise in brand story, strategy, and design with deep knowledge of an author's branding, readership, and book sales. Every step was explained to me. Every piece of the strategy was outlined for me. Though I am thrilled with the incredible look and feel of my website, I also feel confident knowing that this site checks all the strategy boxes, designed to tell the right stor...

Working with Alana was nothing short of Amazing. This was my first book project, and Alana was patient and kind. She accepted all feedback and suggestions and quickly answered my questions. I was very satisfied with the final product. I would 100% recommend collaborating with Alana on your next project.

Laurie Bernstein is an outstanding editor and professional in the publishing industry. Her credentials are beyond excellent, and she brings her authentic expertise to the work. She is meticulous, patient, and gracious. I handed her a manuscript that was riddled with errors and duplications. She sent me back a manuscript that provided clear directions for possible improvements, encouraged me to think deeply about my message and story, and to keep working toward excellence. Thanks to Laurie. I ...

As a writer, our stories are precious to us. Reaching out to someone to bring that to life can be difficult for the artist. We have expectations, visions already in place. Rachel not only met my vision, but she exceeded it. These are not just words. She is extremely talented and a joy to work with. I would not only recommend her to everyone and anyone, but also come back again and again.

I can't recommend Rebecca Roy highly enough for a developmental edit. What I've received has been exceptional and far more than what I even expected in such a short amount of time. There was nothing rushed about the edit I received - both on my script and an overarching in-depth document filled with nothing but suggestions and, more importantly, the reason behind the suggestions. Rebecca has also been available before, during and after, to discuss any of the suggested edits. Many I took on bo...
