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.

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:)

Meredith is amazing! Plain and simple! This was my first time using reedsy so I was a little hesitant. But Meredith put all my worries to rest. She answered every single one of my questions and got to work on my little Novelette and I would say she over delivered. The feedback was spot on, and with her copy editing and proofreading it couldn't have come out any better. My novelette now looks like a professional work of art. I seriously cannot thank her enough for what she's done for me. 5 sta...

Working with Michael has been an incredible experience from start to finish. His editorial insight is sharp, thoughtful, and deeply attuned to both the heart of the story and the clarity of the writing. He has a rare ability to elevate ideas without ever overshadowing the author’s voice, and his feedback consistently brings out the strongest, most polished version of the work. What I appreciate most is his balance of professionalism and genuine enthusiasm. He celebrates the wins, guides the ...

This is the first time that I have ventured into the world of indie publishing for an originally trad-published book that is very special to my heart. From Finn's enthusiastic reaction to the original cover brief and his initial creative response to his flexibility and openness to suggestions and the speed of his replies, he has made things feel easy and fun. I'm delighted with the final result and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Finn to anyone looking for a very positive and collaborative ...

I came to her with a manuscript that was ambitious, contrarian, and structured in a very specific way. As an author, you often fear that an editor will try to flatten your voice or force your unique structure into a standard box. Kimberley did the exact opposite: she entered my world completely. From day one, she treated the project not just as a job, but as a partnership. She took the time to deeply understand the "heartbeat" of the book—why certain sections needed to be contemplative and o...

Travis was absolutely GOLDEN throughout this entire process! His intuitive touch brought a level of depth to my novel that I didn’t even know was possible. Every step of the way, he demonstrated incredible patience, integrity, and true professionalism. I can’t recommend him highly enough—if you’re ready to take your work to the next level, Travis is the man. 👏🏿👏🏿

Wendy's assessment of my novel was insightful and professional, providing critical and constructive feedback that allowed me to better examine not only the work itself but opportunities to build further storied from the material. Her notes were incredibly thorough, covering all aspects of the manuscript from character development to even the smallest inconsistencies in continuity, which she meticulously detailed right down to page numbers. Honest and encouraging, I highly recommend Wendy Lee ...

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...

Zuchal has been wonderful to work with throughout the process of creating my first book. From day one, he was very clear about his expectations and requirements and was very patient with the entire process. He was quick to make changes I had to my cover, and was sure to answer any questions I had with a clear explanation! Beautiful work all around, the drawing is clear and colourful, just what I was hoping for! I hope to work with him again for future projects. I would highly recommend using ...

Working with Maria was an outstanding experience from beginning to end. Her editorial feedback was thoughtful, detailed, and highly actionable. She challenged me to strengthen my manuscript while always respecting my voice and the heart behind the project. Her recommendations helped me deepen key sections, improve organization, and create a more meaningful experience for readers. What impressed me most was her ability to balance professionalism with encouragement. She identified areas for i...

I’ve had so much fun collaborating with Kristen. Not only has she championed my novel as if it were her own, she’s also gone above and beyond to ensure it’s in the best possible shape for publication. Her feedback has been super helpful, and I’m already looking forward to working with her again in the future :) I’d definitely recommend her to any author looking for someone who approaches their book with passion, care and professionalism.

Nvard is an outstanding artist. Her portfolio immediately appealed to me for the clarity of the visual language and her mastership in using typography as central part of the design. Interaction with her has been a pleasure and has been extremely productive. Her advice was to the point, the delivery of the material timely, and her willingness to go through iterations was extremely helpful. The results exceeded my expectations and I learned a lot during the process.

Talin is a top-tier editor. Her observations went beyond techniques or trends, addressing the voice development in my drafts—five stars.

Michelle did a fantastic job with my book in not only editing but teaching me a lot about citations and when and when not needed. She was very easy to communicate with and did a thorough job. I will definitely employ her again when I have the need for a sharp, and focused editor.
