Hiring Dan to copy-edit Seraphant was one of the best decisions I made on this book. The manuscript is 180,000 words across 43 chapters, with a constructed language woven through the prose, layered worldbuilding, and a science-fantasy register that demanded a careful editorial ear. Dan handled all of it. He delivered chapter sets on a reliable Wednesday schedule, communicated cleanly throughout, and tracked global conventions—capitalization, formatting, terminology—across the whole arc with...

This is my second time working with Eleanor and it won't be my last! Her attention to detail is fantastic, and she went the extra mile in confirming facts I'd referenced. This was the second book in a series and had some elements of magic, and I loved that she was on the lookout for consistency in the magic system and suggested clarifying certain details for the reader. I also really appreciate that when she suggests reworking a sentence, she frames it as a suggestion—not a must—recognizin...

I used David for a developmental edit, and the feedback he produced was fantastic. He identified numerous issues I was already aware of, but also highlighted others I hadn’t been able to spot myself. I knew my draft wasn’t where I wanted it to be, but I couldn’t pinpoint why. David summarised the problems brilliantly and provided a clear structure I can use to polish my manuscript to a professional level. His feedback was extensive, fair, and constructive, never nitpicking. I would strongly r...

Working with Jenny was one of the best decisions I made for my manuscript. She brought a rare combination of precision and warmth to my memoir — the kind of editor who clearly loves both language and the people behind it. She was meticulous without being heavy-handed, catching the kinds of details that are easy to overlook when you've been living inside your own story for years. Tense consistency was a particular area where she pushed me — gently but persistently — and honestly, I was a littl...

Working with Olga was an excellent experience. She went above and beyond, showing remarkable patience to ensure the cover was absolutely perfect - and the result exceeded my expectations. Throughout the process, she was friendly, communicative, and receptive to every request for revision. I wholeheartedly recommend working with her.

Jordan was excellent to work with, and often went over the top to deliver the highest quality work. His style is amazing, but more than that, he worked hard to understand my story and match the art with the book's genre and themes. We tweaked details and went through multiple examples almost every step along the way, and I had a lot of fun seeing the progress. Jordan has a real eye for detail and balance, providing a professional quality to the cover that is so impressive. Not only did Jordan...

Devon went above and beyond on the editing project for my historical fiction book. I really appreciated her superb attention to detail and consistency, as well as her professionalism and responsiveness throughout the process. She even completed the work a full week ahead of schedule. Highly recommended!

As a debut author, this was my first experience working with a professional editor, and I couldn’t have asked for a better introduction to the process. Micaela provided thoughtful, detailed feedback that strengthened my manuscript in meaningful ways. Her notes on POV, pacing, repetition, emotional clarity, and trusting the reader challenged me to think more deeply about every scene. I found myself agreeing with far more of her suggestions than I expected, and even when I ultimately chose a d...

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.

Grace is amazing. I feel like anything else I follow up with will lessen this fact. She is quick. She is dependable. She's encouraging but also critical (in a fair way) and is easy to get a hold of. I will definitely be knocking on her door when my next project is ready.

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 ...

Ruth was absolutely wonderful to work with. Not only did she deliver her edit even earlier than scheduled, but the feedback she provided was both precise and thoughtful. Her keen eye for detail helped elevate the language without ever losing the original tone of the manuscript. As an editor myself, I deeply appreciated how carefully she respected the text’s voice while still improving clarity and flow. Every suggestion felt considered and purposeful, never overbearing. Her communication thr...

Kevin is a wonderfully talented illustrator. His illustrations for our fifth collaboration, The Adventures of Ulixes: The Treasure in Jupiter's Chariot, perfectly complement my vision for the story. His creativity, attention to detail, and skill bring the characters and world to life. I can't wait to work with him again on the sixth book in the 7 Tokens of Rome series. I highly recommend Kevin to anyone looking for an exceptional illustrator.

Working with Milica was great! I wanted her to be inspired by some of the writing to see what she could come up with. She provided various options for my cover art and interior design and I absolutely loved them. There was some back and forth to tweak some of the elements and Milica was always responsive and professional. I highly recommend her!

My co-author and I had never worked with an illustrator before, so we came into the project with a lot of apprehension. It's a challenge when you're not sure what to expect and are in unfamiliar territory. What drew us to Claudia was not only her amazing artistic abilities, but most of all, her bio and other reviews mentioned her patience. The reviews did not lie. We needed a lot of guidance through this process and Claudia delivered that, along with the most stunning illustrations which real...
