Lauren has been a pleasure to work with so far. Her feedback on my dev edit was thorough, thoughtful, and actionable. I appreciate how she identified areas of improvement on a granular level, as well as thematically, for me to work on as a writer. It is a pleasure to have Lauren edit my manuscript, providing guidance for me through her extensive knowledge. She's incredibly easy to communicate with, open, and supportive. I look forward to continuing to work with her on this project and future ...

Mark has helped me with multiple projects from book covers, to inside formatting, to social media ads. He's exceptional ... a real pro. His attention to detail is meticulous. In addition to being a creative genius, he's easy to work with and makes you feel like you have a true partner who cares about your project as much as you do. A value he ads is that he's very familiar with the publishing world and anticipates potential issues and makes certain you are completely ready to go on launch day...

This was such a beautiful journey; I learnt so much for your professional experience which really strengthened the book and took it to another level. It’s been a pleasure collaborating with you, and I’m so grateful for the care you took with my work.

Eli is an outstanding editor and was an invaluable part of making my book stronger. He was thorough, honest, insightful, and delivered on time. He doesn’t pull punches—when something wasn’t working, he told me why and, more importantly, gave me practical ways to address the issue. He helped me address problems with plot holes, consistency, character development, pacing, emotional impact, and how to create stakes early and keep readers hooked. He also challenged me to develop an ending that w...

Edyta is a talented artist and created a whimsical and wonderful illustration for a project I'm working on. Excited to work with her again!

At first I thought George was too good to be true, but he went above and beyond my expectations. I've worked on my debut novel for years. Draft after draft trying to get it to be the story I saw in my head. My beta readers all loved it, but said, "They wanted something more from the characters." I couldn't figure out what they were trying to tell me. Enter George, who put into words everything they meant and allowed me to have my "OHHHHHHH THAT'S IT!" moment. Then he did more. He treated my w...

I can’t praise Jo too highly. She has helped me to turn my scribbling into something I can now submit to literary agents.

It was a genuine pleasure to work with Pamela. She is true professional and did an amazing job on this project.

Couldn't have asked for a better, more professional translator. Cyra was punctual and very responsive to requests. The reception to the translated work has been better than I ever could have imagined. Will definitely use her, again.

I'm so glad I hired J to do a developmental edit on my debut novel. She's communicative, thorough, and enthusiastic. In addition to advising me on structural hiccups like incomplete transitions and underdeveloped plot points, she corrected some typos and grammatical errors that I'd overlooked. She also took the time to answer the questions I had about her editorial suggestions. I highly recommend working with her!

Bryony did a wonderful job reading over my script and providing great feedback!

I just spoke with Camille, and the experience was incredibly helpful. She provided thoughtful, insightful feedback and raised important points about my story that I hadn’t previously considered. Her perspective gave me a clearer understanding of areas that can be strengthened, and I’m genuinely excited to revisit my manuscript and make the necessary revisions. I’m also looking forward to working with Camille on refining my query once the edits are complete.

I can't say enough good things about Helen. She was an absolute dream to work with and provided a thorough, insightful review of my manuscript, along with practical suggestions that genuinely improved the story. Helen understood exactly what I was trying to achieve and her feedback strengthened the manuscript while still preserving my voice. Her comments were thoughtful, encouraging and incredibly professional, and it was clear she had invested real time and care into the project. In fact, ...

Reece-Alexander Norris-Paterson or The Commander of the Northern Armies, as I call him, is a man of many names and phenomenal talent. He designed the cover of my debut novel and the result was better than anything I could have ever imagined. I don’t know what kind of magic he used, but bless him, for he reached into my mind, took out my dream cover and brought it to life, while also somehow making it a million times better. The commander completed the project on time and was willing to revise...

Sasha was a dream to work with. She was extremely responsive to my requests and questions. Very timely and would love to work with her if and when I write another children's book.
