Alice did a thorough job of proofreading my book. She answered all of my questions with clarity and in a timely manner. Her cost was reasonable, and I am satisfied with her professionalism. It was a pleasure working with her.

Connor was very professional and helpful. Highly recommend him.

My project is not finished but up til now all my interactions with Tom have been enormously useful. I chose Tom because he seemed to respond with some actual interest in my story and not with an 'Okay, I could do this." sort of comment. I feel that Tom took the time to get into the tone and spirit of my story. He gave me valuable feedback on what he understood as he read and what was confusing. I don't want to confuse my 8 year old reader! I hope to continue to work with Tom until this p...

What an extremely excellent developmental editor you are, Martha! I believe you were sent to me by no other than Divine Providence. Your editorial wisdom, persistence, and human compassion helped this manuscript become what i always dreamed it would be: a tale of resilience despite challenging times. Your attention to detail, your eagle eye ...your diligence in keeping me up to date. I cannot thank you enough for bringing this manuscript to life. I am sure that my agent will appreciate what...

Kara provided thoughtful, high-quality feedback with real editorial insight. She was professional and clear throughout the project, and her notes were constructive and actionable—not just opinions, but guidance I could apply immediately. She elevated the manuscript while retaining my voice, which made the process both productive and reassuring.

YoungJu has been impressive with her professionalism, knowledge in book and cover design, and book formatting. She has, also, taught me a few things about book design that no amount of googling had taught me. I truly appreciate all the effort she has put into my very first children's picture book. Without you it wouldn't come together at all. I would 100% recommend YoungJu to anyone who's embarking on a self-publishing journey and needs help with interior book formatting and cover design! She...

Working with Dora has been an absolute pleasure! In addition to her brilliant work as an artist, Dora has consistently demonstrated professionalism and responsiveness. She took my feedback into careful consideration and created a beautiful piece that truly honored my vision. I am so grateful for collaborating with her on my book cover!

Ian is a meticulous editor, worth every penny you’d spend on editorial. Even though I hired Ian only to do copy edits, he put in the extra effort to proofread and also give some inputs on developmental level. Every comment he makes goes a long way in making my manuscript better. His impeccable work shows how much he cares for the manuscript and your story. His work not only improves my manuscript but also teaches me to be a better writer. My only regret is not involving Ian sooner in my work....

Seth was truly amazing to work with. He took the time to understand our project goals and what we wanted to accomplish. From the initial discussions and outlining to the completed book, Seth was collaborative, responsive, and delivered a high-quality children's book on time. I recommend collaborating with Seth on your project!

I cannot say enough positive things about working with Kate Juniper. Having no experience in the book-writing realm, I was unsure what to expect. What I received was tenfold more than I could ever have imagined. Kate has a unique ability to connect on such a deeply emotional level. She made me feel safe to make mistakes, to learn, and to be vulnerable in every aspect of learning how to write. She possesses a rare kind of patience that is thoughtful and kind. Her extensive expertise in writing...

My writing style is bold, explicit, and twisted, so it can be a challenge to find collaborators who understand and appreciate that. I queried a handful of editors on Reedsy with a sample that included a spicy sex scene. I figured if they could handle that, they could handle everything else in the book. Sure enough, Meredith A. responded quickly and favorably to my sample, and was available and eager to start the copy edit immediately. The cost was fair, and the one-month timeline was reasonab...

Lynne Walker is an exceptionally talented editor whose precision and insight elevated every page of my manuscript while preserving my voice. She completed an inline edit for me, and her comments were sharp, constructive, and always grounded in a deep understanding of tone and rhythm. Working with her was seamless. She’s professional, punctual, and consistently responsive. Every exchange reflected her care and commitment to excellence. Lynne brought not only skill but genuine respect f...

Georgie was so wonderful to work with. She took an idea I had and brought it to life. Great communication, flexible, accommodating. Highly recommended. I plan to work with her again!

I wholeheartedly recommend Staci to anyone looking for an editor who brings both skill and heart to the process. Working with her on my memoir has been an absolute privilege. As a novice writer, I had cold feet about sharing the first round of my memoir, but Staci’s thoughtful and valid feedback gave me both clarity and confidence. Additionally, her positive and sentimental notes, strung throughout her commentary, offered just the encouragement I needed to keep going. Staci not only helped e...

Working with David was one of the best decisions I made for my book. His editorial guidance was not only thorough and insightful but also deeply supportive. He didn’t just edit my manuscript—he took the time to really understand the heart of my story, asked thoughtful questions, and offered clarity where I needed it most. What stood out most was his willingness to spend time in conversation, ensuring I felt confident in every step of the process. His feedback was both honest and encouraging, ...
